Verse
Am7I've got stories to tell but no means to tell 'em
CI've got words to get out but they'll send me to hell
FI bet that you're drunk at the Franklin
Csus4Blowing off all that grief that I gave ya.
Verse 2
Am7It's cold when you're here and it's cold when you're not
CAnd it hit me like a bullet, but I took it 'cause I'm strong
FAnd I'm the closest to the man
Csus4The man I never was
Verse 3
Am7And I'm driving home from the worst night alive
CThanksgiving was like hell, but I give thanks that I'm alive
FI don't care that I don't mean it
Csus4I don't care that I can't hide it like I used to
Csus4What's the use to it?
Verse 4
Am7I will survive, but I'll never recover

Of all of the love I still have for you
Csus4I'm not mad at you

CDon't ask me why I stayed 'cause I couldn't tell you why

Csus4But I thought I was fine
Verse 6
Am7Now this place is empty, and if the walls could talk
CThey would tell you how it is and tell you how it's not

On all the things that
