and i finally see that the further we go
C F
we’re only treading ground that we already know .
G Dm C Am G F G
i could write you a song , send you a note , or empty out your trash
C F G
and buy a bucket full of di – ee – iamonds but

so it’s on into the lonely nights and all the rest of it .
Dm F C
the empty space between me and the sunken walls
F Dm G# G C
feeling someone’s hand around my neck
F Dm F G
choking away the life that i have left .

G C F G
and i finally see that the further i go
C F G
i’m only treading ground i don’t wanna know .
Dm C Am G F

Am G F

Dm F C
the empty space between me and the sunken walls
F Dm G# G C
feeling someone’s hand around my neck
F Dm F G
choking away the life that i have left .

Am G F Dm

G C solo
but now it’s winter , my bones are cold .
