Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]All I can ever be to you
[D]is a darkness that we knew
And [F]this regret I [Am]got [Dm]accustomed to
[Am]Once it was so right
[D]When we were at our height
[F]Waiting for you [Am]in the h[Dm]otel at night
I [Am]knew I hadn't met my match
But [D]every moment we could snatch
I [F]don't know why [Am]I got so [Dm]attached
It's my [Am]responsibility
[D]You don't owe nothing to me
But to [F]walk away,
I [Am]have no [Dm]capacity[Em]

[Chorus 1]
[F]He [Dm]walks [Em]away
The sun [Am]goes down
[F]He tak[Dm]es the day[Em],
but I'm [Am]grown (I'm grown)
And in [F]your way
[Dm]In this blue[Em] shade[Am]
My [D]tears dry on their [F]own

[Verse 2]
[Am]I don't understand
[D]Why do I stress the man
When [F]there's so many
[Am]bigger [Dm]things at hand?
We could've [Am]never had it all
[D]We had to hit a wall
So [F]this is [Am]inevitable [Dm]withdrawal
Even if [Am]I stop wanting you
[D]And perspective pushes through
I'll [F]be some next [Am]man's other [Dm]woman soon
I cannot [Am]play my self again
I [D]should just be my own best friend
Not [F]fuck my self
[Am]in the head with[Dm] stupid men[Em]

[Chorus 2]
[F]He walks [Dm]away
[Em]The sun goes[Am] down
[F]He tak[Dm]es the day,
[Em]but I'm grow[Am]n (I'm grown)
And in [F]your way
[Dm]In this blue[Em] shade[Am]
My [D]tears dry on their [F]own

[Bridge 1]
So [F]we are history
Your shadow covers me
The sky above ablaze
[E]He walks away
[Am]The sun goes down
[F]He takes the day,
but I'm grown
And in [G]your way
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own

[Verse 3]
I [Am]wish I could sing no regrets
[D]And no emotional debt
'Cause [F]as we kissed [Am]goodbye, the [Dm]sun sets
So [Am]we are history
Your [D]shadow covers me
The [F]sky [Am]above ablaze
[Dm]That only lovers [Em]see

[Chorus 3]
[F]He [Dm]walks away
[Em]The sun goes[Am] down
[F]He tak[Dm]es the day[Em],
but I'm [Am]grown (I'm grown)
And in [F]your way
[Dm]My deep [Em]shad[Am]e
My [D]tears dry on their [F]own
Whoa, he [Dm]walks [Em]away
The [Am]sun goes down
[F]He takes the day[Dm],
[Em]but I am grown[Am]
And in [F]your way
[Dm]My deep [E]shad[Am]e
My [F]tears dry [Dm]on their ow[E]n, w[Am]oah
[F]He walks [Dm]away
[Em]The sun goes[Am] down
[F]He tak[Dm]es the day,
[Em]but I'm grow[Am]n
And in [F]your way
[Dm]My deep [Em]shad[Am]e
[F]My tears [Dm]dry[Em][Am]
