[Verse 1]
I wan[D]na [A]stay but you wan
[D]na go so [Em]far a[G]way[D]
I guess that this is [Em]how it [D]is

[Verse 2]
[G]Forgive my bla[A]ring silen[D]ce
[G]Tha[D]t cuts t[Em]he air li[D]ke knives to the bone[A]
[G]No hiding it,[A] no denying[D]
[G]Toget[Em]her we [D]are yet alo[A]ne
[G]Familiar fac[A]es, yet[D] not a [G]trace is
Dis[Em]covered [D]in this moment
we're [A]in[D]
[G]Still is [A]the motion,
[D]it's [G]like an [Bm]ocean
[Em]Between [D]now and then
where [A]our story begins

[Verse 3]
[D]I wanna s[A]tay but you
wanna [Bm]go so fa[G]r aw[D]ay
I [G]guess that this is [A]how it is
I [D]wish I [A]had known our love was your [G]game
But my love is no [D]game to [A]be played
I [D]guess that this is [Em]how it [D]is

[Verse 4]
You [G]can't blame my [A]eye
s for being [D]frozen[Bm]
They [Em]just can't [D]believe what they [A]see
[Em]And pard[G]on my mind[A] for not knowi[D]ng[G]
[D]What lie[Em]s bey[D]ond my per[A]iphery
[G]It's like we nev[A]er sai[D]d tha[G]t together
Is [Em]what we [D]would always [A]be[D]
[G]Please be preten[A]ding
[D]this is the end[G]ing
[Bm]If it's [Em]not [D]too late
I'll do [A]whatever it takes

[Verse 5]
[D]I wanna s[A]tay but you
wanna [G]go [Bm]so fa[G]r aw[D]ay
I [G]guess that this is [A]how it is
I [D]wish I [A]had known our love was your [G]game
But my love is no [D]game to [A]be played
I guess that this is [Em]how it [D]is
[A]It

[Verse 6]
would have been nice to
have a little warning
[Em]'Cau[D]se I[A] was still loving while you
were here [D]leaving in[Em]side[D][G]
How did your eyes hide the thought
[E]s that were [A]dawning
[D]

[Verse 7]
[D]I wanna s[A]tay but you wanna
[Bm]go so fa[G]r aw[D]ay
I [G]guess that this is [A]how it is
I [D]wish I had [A]known our love was your [Bm]game
But my [G]love is no [D]game to [A]be played
I [G]guess [A]that [D]thi[A]s i[G]s how[A]
[D]it [A]is[G][A]
