[Intro 1]
[Am][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em][Am]

[Verse 1]
It's [Em]easy
in [Am]the confidence of [Em]a warm heart
to ob[Am]serve how other lovers [Em]criticize
When [Am]their turn comes [Em]to part
They grow unciv[Am]ilized[G]
Wasn't friendship going [Am]to carry us
When [G]love ran [Am]out?
Didn't we [G]know[Am]
What respect was [Bm]all a[G]bout?
But now it would [C]seem[B]
[G]That's all forgot[C]ten
(I didn't want it to en[G]d like this)
And I don't even [C]know
(I didn't want it [G]to end)
When we lost the [Am]way
Oh no no [G]no[C]
Not me and [Em]you[G][C]
Not we [G]two
Oh [Em]no didn't we ag[D]ree
Parting would be [Em]pain [D]le[C]ss[A]
[D][B][Em][Am][Em][Am][Em][Am]
I re[Em]member how in [Am]the safety of [Em]our love
We swore [Am]we'd never let [Em]that state arise
And if [Am]one had had e[Em]nough
We would be civil[Am]ized[G]
By watching [Am]we could avoid
[G]The same [Am]mistakes[G]
We would tread [Am]the soft way out
For the [Bm]other's [G]sake[C][G][C][G][C][G]
[Am][G][C]
[G][C][G][Em][C][Em][D][Em][D]
[C][A][D][B][Em]
Can it be [C]possible?
Is [D]it [Em]happening this [C]way?
We are [Em]the same two people
Tear[D]ing up in anger
Tearing [A]everything in complicated [G]knots
Not caring, not [C]giving,
not [A]giving a [D]dam[B]n
