Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Verse 1
i tried to paint you a picture, the colors were all wrong
black and white didn't fit ya, and all along
you were shaded with patience, and strokes of everything
that i need just to make it, but i can see that
Pre-chorus
Lord knows i failed you time and again
but you and me are alright
Chorus
we won't say our goodbyes, you know it's better that way
we won't break we won't die, it's just a moment of change
all we are, all we are, is everything thats right
all we need, all we need, a lover's alibi
Verse 2
same chords as Verse 1):
i walked a minute in your shoes, they never would have fit
i figured there's nothing to lose, i need to get
some perspective on these words, before i write them down
you're an island and my ship has run aground
Refrain
and every single day that i can breathe
you change my philosophy
i'm never gonna let you pass me by
the rest of the song are the chorus chords. have fun!
