G#
I love the songs I hated when I was young
Because they take me back where I come from
     C#
When every broken heart seemed like the end
     G#            C#      G#        D#
When everyone was someone different then

But I can't be alone in a crowded room
Where my thoughts, they run like water down a flume
There are days when I will let the darkness rise
I don't always choose to stay on the sunny side

Chorus:
Fm             C#   G#   C#           G#
Sometimes I prete - eh - end we never met (ooh)
G#   D#  Fm   D#     C#     G#             D#
Be-cause it's harder to forgive than to forget
                C#     D#    G#
Sometimes it's harder to forgive

Yes, my life has seen some wasted time
I have suffered for the peace inside my mind
And some things are better left unsaid
While some things work out different when
they're in your head

But I'm not sorry for the things I say
Sometimes I let my mouth just run away
And I believe that all souls are born kind
And that all love lost comes back in time

Chorus

    G#
And even if the world is really round
    Fm
And all the maps are printed upside down
   A#m
So if you stand in one place for too long
D#
Everything around you will be gone

      G#
Well, I'm not gonna miss you when I go
        Fm
Now the part of me that's left wants you to know
     A#m
That I'm not gonna jump towards the light
    D#                           G#   D# 
The ones who believe choose the night
