(PMÂ…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…Â…)
Verse1
E
Like two ships in the night weÂ’re colliding and sinking
A B
Into the black sea of our love
E
We navigated past the port of logical thinking
A B
Lost sight of the stars up above
Chorus1
C#m A
Now my heart is a mess, Murder scene in my chest
E B
Not a clue how you got through the door
E B
But IÂ’m glad that you came, No regret and no shame
A B
As IÂ’m lying here dead on the floor
Verse2
I took a blind leap of faith itÂ’s not crashing and burning
With my heart fast asleep in your bed
I got on the ground with my insides turning
And a picture of you in my head
Chorus2
As I wandered away, deep in shock and dismay
In a daze just repeating your name
Well the fact of the matter is both our hearts shatter
Way to goddamn easily
Chorus3
When you asked me if IÂ’d stay forever
I guess you meant just for the week
We felt so good together
Well it was way too good to be
Outro
When I left you there early that morning my darling
I told you that I'd miss you so
I got on that plane with my heart soaring
But now it's falling like snow
But now its falling like snow
(End on E)
