the wreckage – will hoge – the wreckage

played mainly with power chords on an acoustic 6 string .

intro
B F# B F#

verse 1
B F#
another night here lonely as a tomb
B F#
another smell of that cheap dime store perfume
E F# B
the kind that never really washes off at all
E F# B E F#
the kind that really only makes me want to call you up again

verse 2
B F#
i’m just here searching for a clue
B F#
hoping that i might find one thing that’s true
E F# B
in the wreckage maybe something i could save
E F# B E F#
i can still taste the first sweet kiss that you gave me way back then

chorus
G#m E
why do i keep holding on
G#m E
to what i know is wrong
G#m E
everything keeps moving on
E F# B
everything but me and you

verse 3
i got the truth just staring back at me
we’re everything i never wanted us to be
every time i try to walk away i don’t
you give me every kind of reason but i want you yes i do

chorus
why do i keep holding on
to what i know is wrong
everything keeps moving on
everything but me and you

verse 4
baby let me tell you one thing that i know
we should lock this down or just let it go
but i can’t seem to run away from you
deep in my heart i guess i always knew
i want you
i want you
