Intro
Am - C - F
Am C
The walls between
F
You and I
Am C F
Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight
Am C
The space between
F
Our calm and rage
Am C F
started growing shorter , disappearing slowly day after day
Pre-Chorus
Dm Em F Dm
I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
Dm Em F
You were waiting for me too
F(strum)
And it makes me wonder
Chorus
C
The older I get
G
Will I get over it
Dm Em
It's been way too long for the times we missed
F C
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
C
The older I get
G
Maybe I'll get over it
Dm Em
It's been way too long for the times we missed
F
I can't believe it still hurts like this
Verse 2
Am - C - F 1x
Am C
The time between
F
Those cutting words
Am C F
Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt
Am C
Do you believe
F
That time heals all wounds
Am C F
It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you
Pre-Chorus 1x
Chorus 1x
Bridge
Am F
What was I waiting for
C
I should've taken less and given you more
G
I should've weathered the storm
Am
I need to say so bad
Am F
What were you waiting for
Dm Em F
This could have been the best we ever had
Chorus 1x
Outro
