           C                       F
We made a fire, went down in the flames,
             C                         F
we sailed an ocean and drowned in the waves.
            C                     F
Built a cathedral, but we never prayed,
          C                         F
We had it all yeah, and we walked away.

Chorus:
 G                               G7                     F
Point of no return and now it's just too late to turn around.
G                            G7                          F
I try to forgive you but I struggle 'cause I don't know how.
    G                               G7                       C  F
We built it up so high and now I'm fallin', it's a long way down.
                 C          F
It's a long way down, from here.

We had a mountain, but took it for granted
We had a spaceship, but we couldn't land it
We found an island, but we got stranded
We had it all, yeah, who could've planned it?

Chorus:
 G                               G7                     F
Point of no return and now it's just too late to turn around.
G                            G7                          F
I try to forgive you but I struggle 'cause I don't know how.
    G                               G7                       C  F
We built it up so high and now I'm fallin', it's a long way down.
                 C   F                 C   F
Such a long way down, it's a long way down.
                 C   F                  C  F
It's a long way down,  such a long way down.
                 C   F                  C
It's a long way down,  it's a long way down.
