verse 1
Am F C
i don’t like walking around this old and empty house
Am F C
so hold my hand , i’ll walk with you my dear
Am F C
the stairs creak as i sleep , it’s keeping me awake
Am F C
it’s the house telling you to close your eyes
Am F C
some days i can’t even trust myself
Am F C
it’s killing me to see you this way

Am F C
there’s an old voice in my head that’s holding me back
Am F C
tell her that i miss our little talks
Am F C
soon it will all be over and buried with our past
Am F C
we used to play outside when we were young ( and full of life and full of love )
Am F C
some days i think that i’m wrong when i’m right
Am F C
your mind is playing tricks on you my dear

chorus
Am F
’cause though the truth may vary

you’re gone , gone , gone away . i watched you disappear
Am
all that’s left is a ghost of you
Am
now we’re torn , torn , torn apart , there’s nothing we can do .

just let me go , we’ll meet again soon .

now wait , wait , wait for me . please hang around

i see you when i fall asleep . hey!
