Capo ♪ fret 3
i’ve been de[Am]pressed since you left
tried to fill the hole with wine
stopped the [F]drugs when she came
cleaned my act up overnight
if you [Am]reach with no reply
i’ll see you when i see you man
you can’t [F]talk me through the fall
if we don’t know if i can land
tried to [Am]grow, but the past
it tears me down to size
tell the [F]world how to process
but don’t take the same advice
half re[Am]member what i said
then the morning’s filled with fear
can’t get a [F]handle on my grief
when every memory turns to tears
it’s been a [F]long [C]year[G]
and we’re not even [F]halfway there
Chorus
is this the ending of [Am]our youth
when [C]pain starts taking [F]over?
i just don’t know if [G]i..
can [C]ever just let it go[F]..
everything’s falling a[Am]part
when love is [C]real,
there’s never [F]closure..
i guess it’s all part of [G]life..
but i [C]can’t help but feel low[F]..
we spend our [Dm]youth
with arms and [Em]hearts wide [F]open
and then the [Dm]dark
gets in and [Em]that’s the end of [F]youth..
i’ve been [Am]lost since the teens
but pretend it’s all alright
all my [F]ups led to falls
that led to try to end my life
just a [Am]boy at the start,
they lent on like a man
you were [F]meant to be my friend
and not to take all that you can
disen[Am]gaged to create,
try to re-invent the wheel
no one [F]knows what they want,
so i just give you what i feel
if i [Am]slip and get high
i know the low is always near
when i’m [F]down i never see you,
when i’m up you all appear
it’s been a [F]long [C]year[G]
and we’re not even [F]halfway there
Chorus
