Forever Winter (From The Vault)

[C] [G] [D]x4

 

[C]He says he doesn’t believe

[G]anything much he [D]hears these days

[C]He says, “Why fall in love,

[G]just so you can watch it [D]go away?”

[C]He spends most of his nights

[G]wishing it was how it [D]used to be

[C]He spends most of his

flights [G]getting pulled down by [D]gravity

[C]I call [G]just checking [D]up on him

[C]He’s up, [G]3am [D]pacing

[C]He says, “It’s not [G]just a [D]phase I’m in”

[C]My voice [D]comes out begging

 

[Em]All this [C]time I didn’t [D]know

You were breaking [C]down

I’d fall to [Em]pieces on the [D]floor

If you weren’t [C]around

Too young to [D]know it gets better

[G]I’ll be [D]summer sun [Em]for you forever

[C]Forever [Em]winter if you [D]go…

 

[C]He seems fine most of the time

[G]Forcing smiles and [D]never minds

[C]His laugh is a symphony

[G]When the lights go out it’s [D]hard to breathe

[C]I pull at every thread [G]trying

to solve the puzzles [D]in his head

[C]Live my life scared to death

[G]he’ll decide to [D]leave instead

[C]I call [G]just checking [D]up on him

[C]He’s up, [G]5am [D]wasted

[C]Long gone, [G]not even [D]listening

[C]My voice [D]comes out screaming

 

[Em]All this [C]time I didn’t [D]know

You were breaking [C]down

I’d fall to [Em]pieces on the [D]floor

If you weren’t [C]around

Too young to [D]know it gets better

[G]I’ll be [D]summer sun [Em]for you forever

[C]Forever [Em]winter if you [D]go…

 

[C]If I was standing there [G]in your [D]apartment

[C]I’d take that bomb in your head [Em]and [D]disarm it

[C]I’d say I love you even [Em]at your [Đ]darkest and

[C]Please don’t [D]go [Em]

 

[C]I didn’t [D]know

You were breaking [C]down

I’d fall to [Em]pieces on the [D]floor

If you weren’t [C]around

Too young to [D]know it gets better

[G]I’ll be [D]summer sun [Em]for you forever

[C]Forever [Em]winter if you [D]go…

 

I’ll be your summer sun [C]forever

At [Em]3am [D]pacing

All this time I didn’t [C]know

At [Em]5am [D]wasted

I’d be in pieces on the [C]floor

Forever [Em]winter if you [D]go...

 

[C]He says he doesn’t believe [G]

anything much he [D]hears these days

[C]I say, “Believe in one thing, [G]I won’t [D]go away”
