Intro: Ebm B Gb Db

Verse 1:
                   Ebm           B
I want all of my nights back
                            Gb
When you were callin' me, cryin'
                   Db
You were fallin' apart
                           Ebm            B
And I said, "darling, I'm right there"
                         Gb
Grab my keys off the nightstand
                          Db
And I drove through the dark, mm-mm

Pre-chorus:
Ebm                     B
But that was then and this is now, and while
Gb                        Db
You're movin' on, I'm breakin' down tonight
Ebm                  B                Gb      Db
And in the end, no matter how hard I try

Chorus:
          Ebm               B
Unloving you is so hard to do
                      Gb               Db
It's like trying to fight the rising tide
                        Ebm
It's like catching the moon
                B            Gb      Db
Or telling the stars not to shine
                Ebm               B
Yeah, unloving you, I must be a fool
               Gb                      Db
'Cause only a fool would waste their time
            Ebm               B                  Gb       Db
On somebody who has already moved on with their life

Verse 2:
                   Ebm           B
I want all of my flights back
                         Gb
When you were goin' to college
                      Db
Promise we'd make it work
                             Ebm            B
Threw all my clothes in a backpack
                             Gb                             Db
Twelve hundred miles just so I could say "I love you" in person Hmm, mm

Pre-chorus:
Ebm                     B
But that was then and this is now, and while
Gb                        Db
You're movin' on, I'm breakin' down tonight
Ebm                  B                Gb      Db
And in the end, no matter how hard I try

Chorus:
          Ebm               B
Unloving you is so hard to do
                      Gb               Db
It's like trying to fight the rising tide
                        Ebm
It's like catching the moon
                B            Gb      Db
Or telling the stars not to shine
                Ebm               B
Yeah, unloving you, I must be a fool
               Gb                      Db
'Cause only a fool would waste their time
            Ebm               B                  Gb       Db
On somebody who has already moved on with their life

Post-chorus:
          Ebm  B            Gb   Db
Somebody help me, somebody help me
           Ebm    B
This isn't healthy
                    Gb
Don't know what to do
                 Db              Gb
Can't make it through, unloving you
