[Intro] F Fsus2 F Fsus2 F [Verse] F7 Waste a month, waste a year Waste the time you could've been here F7 Count the debt, count the tears Count the truths and all of my fears [Pre-Chorus] C I didn't want to be cynical Passing place for the soul Am You were never predictable Now I need to let it go [Verse] F7 Found the song, played it back Heard your voice under the feedback F7 Found a tape that was blank Saw your face fading into black [Pre-Chorus] C I know love is delusional And I hate when I'm wrong Am Yours was never conditional And now I need to get it gone [Chorus] F7 No one еver warns ya Dmadd9 You'll die in California C Falling in a dream, you lеt, let go Am No one ever seems to say, say so F7 No one ever tells ya Dmadd9 There's freedom in the failure C Dying in a dream feels like home Am No one ever seems to say, say so [Instrumental] F7 Dmadd9 C Am [Verse] C Close my eyes, close my heart Close the book I never meant to start F7 Say your name in the dark No one said it would be this hard [Pre-Chorus] C I didn't go to the funeral Heard you cry on the phone Am Your voice was so beautiful And now I need to let it go [Chorus] F7 No one ever warns ya Dmadd9 You'll die in California C Falling in a dream, you let, let go Am No one ever seems to say, say so F No one ever tells ya Dmadd9 There's freedom in the failure C Dying in a dream feels like home Am No one ever seems to say, say so [Instrumental] F7 Dmadd9 C Am [Bridge] G God bless this mess that we made ourselves Am F Pull me into the screen at the end and G God bless this mess that we made for ourselves Am F Pull me into the screen at the end [Outro] F Dmadd9 C Pull me into the screen at the end Am F Pull me into the screen at the end Dmadd9 C To the screen at the end
