Riff 1 (X4) 
Riff 2 (X1) 
C           G                                D 
Couldn't we pretend that I am fine and this ain't my life, 
C                    G         D 
it is not the way it ends for me. 
C                                              G                      
Couldn't we pretend you are not gone, you are still here, 
D 
its not true. 
C                   G            D

D                             A                   Em 
Sometimes I cut myself on the fine line, between laughter and pain, 
          G 
cause it all feels the same for me.

What if I was wrong, to think all this, could last. 
C              G         D 
It is just not meant to be 
C                    G                    D 
What if I was right, would you come back, tonight. 
C                   G         D 
Just the way it was meant to be. 
Am    G
