Intro: Am , G , F , G   x 2

Verse 1 :

Am               G          F
I didn't want to ruin your party
             G
So I gave the invitation to somebody
Am                G             F
I didn't want to sleep in your shadow
            G
So I woke up learning to lay there without you
Am                   G              F               G
Listen close to the whisper of the sound of sorrow

Call me tomorrow
Am             G     F
Listen to the ebb of sky 

The stars fight
G
Wishing you would be mine


        
Chorus:

C        F              G                  F
I'll try to stand by you and let go if you really want me to
C        F              G
I'll try to stand by you and let go
         F            F       F
But sometimes that's hard to do
    F                     C      C
Sometimes that's hard to do


Verse 2:        
        
Old photograph bought and stained
It stood out with me in the rain

I could sworn you were the witness
I need, but, it all bleeded away

Didn't want to ruin your party
So I gave the invitation to somebody

I didn't want to sleep in your shadow
So I woke up learning to lay there without you
        


Chorus:

C        F              G                  F
I'll try to stand by you and let go if you really want me to
C        F              G
I'll try to stand by you and let go
         F            F       F
But sometimes that's hard to do
    F                     C      C
Sometimes that's hard to do
               C
that's hard to do...some..
