IntroD.......VerseWe went back to the shDore
For the crash of the waves
I love that sound and the cuGrious comfort we found in each other
Just lAike we did back in the day
And the crackling cloDuds
Of a storm out at A/C#sea
And you broke me down just by leGaning a little bit closer to me
And yet stAill somehow leaning away

Pre-ChorusWell nobody tBmold me..G.
Just how badly I'd griDeve..A.
That I'd dig through my pBmast
That I'd keep looking bGack
To find oDut who I wanted to AbeChorusHDave I forgotten
How I lAet myself feel?
How the sliGghtest inflections
Were like cuAts that don't heal?
And dDon't be mistaken
That was trAue, I believe
I was soGmething, I swear it
Before liAfe got the better of Dme InterludeD......VerseI think I know how you feDlt
I didn't know how to A/C#leave
But looking back it was eGasy to think you'd be better off
But I shoAuldn't have left you that way
Without saying it rigDht
Or even saying it A/C#wrong
I just moved on, ripped you Bmout of my chest
And I picked up and left
