INTRO : C G F

VERSE:

C G F 
I found the pieces in my hand 
C G
They were always there
Am F
It just took some time for me to understand 
C G F
You gave me words I just can't say 
C G
So if nothing else 
Am F
I'll just hold on while you drift away 

BRIDGE:

Dm F
Cause everything you wanted me to hide 
Dm F G
Is everything that makes me feel alive 

CHORUS: 

C G
The cities grow the rivers flow 
F 
Where you are I'll never know 
C G F
But I'm still here 
C G
If you were right and I was wrong 
F
Why are you the one who's gone 
C G F
And I'm still here 
[NC]
I'm still here 

VERSE : (Same pattern as above)
You've seen the ashes in my heart 
You smile the widest when I cry inside and my insides blow apart 
I try to wear another face 
Just to make you proud 
Just to make you put me in my place 

BRIDGE:(Same pattern as above)
But everything you wanted from me 
Is everything that I could never be 

(chorus) (Same pattern as above)

Am G
Maybe tonight it's gonna be alright 
F
I will get better 
Am G
Maybe today it's gonna be okay 
F G
I will remember 

VERSE : (Same pattern as above)
I held the pieces of my soul 
I was shattered 
And I wanted you to come and make me whole 
Then I saw you yesterday 
But you didn't notice 
You just walked away 

BRIDGE: (Same pattern as above)
Cause everything you wanted me to hide 
Is everything that makes me feel alive 

(chorus) (Same pattern as above)

C G
The lights go out the bridges burn 
F
Once you go you can't return 
C G F
But I'm still here 
C G
Remember how you used to say 
F
I'd be the one to run away 
C G F
But I'm still here 
C
I'm still here
