F#                                 C#
You, evergreen, the fire in my past
F#                                    C#
Can’t run free if I keep looking back
        D#m
It’s a lost cause

It’s a bad bet
        F#
It’s a storm but
      G#
Gotta face it

     F#
Oh, I
                             C#
I love you but you let me down
          F#
Yeah, oh, I
                              C#
I love you but you let me down

F#                           C#
The last time for an eternity
F#                                 C#
You’re only mine when I am on my feet
         D#m
You’re elusive

And it kills me
      F#
Inconclusive
      G#
Never ending

     F#
Oh, I
                             C#
I love you but you let me down
          F#
Yeah, oh, I
                              C#
I love you but you let me down

         F#
And I’ll go as fast as I can
                C#
No time for a moment to myself
         F#
And I’ll go as fast as I can
               C#
I swear on my life it’s for the best

            D#m
And I might call you

On your birthday
      F#               G#
Cover words I wanted to say
            D#m
With some small talk

And I’ll tear up
           F#
But I’ll go on
          G#
And I’ll hang up
              F#
Before I can say
                             C#
I love you but you let me down
    F#
Oh, I
                              C#
I love you but you let me down

         F#
And I’ll go as fast as I can
                C#
No time for a moment to myself
         F#
And I’ll go as fast as I can
               C#
I swear on my life it’s for the best

             D#m
Though our moment

Kept us waiting
        F#
I will keep it
         G#
Keep it sacred
          D#m
Like it’s golden

Wish you nothing
        F#
But an exhale
         G#
And I’m hoping
                  F#
You hear when I say
                          C#
I never meant to let you down
     F#
Oh, I
                            C#
I love you but you let me down
