Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I'm laying on this pavement, the world is caving in.

my life is full of stories and secrets kept within.

 as i feel my breathing slow down at the end of this broken road

the only thing left on my mind is how i let her go.

Verse

I remember when we first met that cold November night.

the leaves were dancing in the wind and everything felt right.

we sat and talked for hours, i was nervous like a child.

my hands were getting shaky and my heart was beating wild.

Pre-chorus

I know I said I'd never hurt you, I'd never walk away.

but now that you have moved on, there's no reason I should stay.

Chorus

Here's to you, for leaving me behind.

 when all i do is live to make you mine.

 if you promise that you're happy and better off alone,

 I'll never stop loving you, it's time I let you go.

Verse 2

 that first night seemed so distant, the days have come and gone.

 our love has never left me but your heart is moving on.

 what happened to the future, it was always you and me.

 and where did all the good times go, all the perfect memories.

Pre-chorus

I'm done with all the heart break, the pathetic little lies.

 oh, what i'd do to get into the world behind your eyes.

Chorus

Here's to you, for leaving me behind.

 when all i do is live to make you mine.

 if you promise that you're happy and better off alone,

 I'll never stop loving you, it's time I let you go.

Bridge

You're the one for me.

you're the only girl who could make my world, perfect and complete.

You're the one for me.

You're the person who could get me through when i'm on my hands and knees.

Here's to you...

Here's to you...

Here's to you...

Here's to you...

Chorus

Here's to you, for leaving me behind.

 when all i do is live to make you mine.

 if you promise that you're happy and better off alone,

 I'll never stop loving you, it's time I let you go.
