Verse:
Em
They say it's a waste

Don't let it run through the cracks

Slides right off your back

By the way

Em Em C C E difficult to include with
Given up on you e --0--0--2--0h2p0-- only one guitar

Your ways about you
Beautiful lips tell lies
I'm going through a phase
Like a moon without you
Howling to cold black skies
