C
Stood in the rain and watched you go
I feel a lump in my throat
And this is far from joy

I never seemed to learn
That high makes things harder
That high I get from you

Chorus:
C                      F                 C
I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
                   F                   Am
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
                      F                       C
I think it's time to run because I'm seeing stars
             F                   C
I'm seeing stars watch me fall apart

C           F             C
I think of dying all the time
But I've got joy to take my side
Fear is my favorite ride ooh hey Hoh

Chorus:
I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
I think it's time to run because I'm seeing stars
I'm seeing stars watch me fall apart

And then you see, ooh

Chorus:
I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
I think it's time to run because I'm seeing stars
I'm seeing stars watch me fall apart
