[Verse 1]
We [C]became the

Ex[F]pendable soldiers
smiling at anything
[C]Raised on [G]a feeling our [Em]lives would
have [Dm]meani[D]ng eventually
[C]

[Verse 2]
We were once the answer and
then you discover
You're [F]actually just one
thing after another
And [Em]what was the question and [G]why
was the les[Dm]son s[F]o [C]deafening?

[Verse 3]
This is all that [C]matters now
[G]And tha[Em]t was all[G] that happene

You can look back but don't [C]stare[G]
[Em]Maybe [G]I can love y[F]ou out of t[G]here

[Verse 4]

what I for[F]got to [C]say
Was all I [F]had to say:
[C]Eight let[F]ters, three wor[G]ds, one[C] meaning

[Verse 5]
And [C]outside forces didn't make it easy
So I [F]thought I'd go before
you leave me
Self-pre[G]servation was was no
explanation for [C]anything

But [C]the truth is more than
we'll ever comprehend
[F]I'm just starting to understand, my friend
[G]All of that distance,
'cause I fell in love with the [C]enemy

[Verse 7]
This is all that [C]matters now
[G]And that was[Em] all that happ[G]ene
[F]d a[G]nyhow
You can look back but don't [C]stare[G]
Maybe I can love [F]you out of [G]there

[Verse 8]
And when I [F]went [C]away
what I for[F]got to [C]say
