Tom : C
F C
I opened my heart, gave you a home
G
I built you up a temple, to keep you safe and warm
F C
But under the sand, you became stone
G
And I couldn't carry all the weight
F C
You crushed me to the bone
G
So goodbye, goodbye…
(refrão)
F
I'm walking away
C
Said all I can say
G
Today is the day
F
I put in my time
C
Now I'm drawing the line
G
Today is the day
F C
Well look at my soul, you're bleeding me dry
G
Like a thousand stars falling down
There's no more tears to cry
F C
Well even when I walk, with you it's just a crawl
G
Down on my knees, I'm begging please
F C
Baby don't take me all
G
So goodbye, goodbye…
(refrão)
