Verse 1:
                 D
Now that you’re gone
            C
Everything’s changed
              D
I heard an alarm
               C
Woke up from a coma

Pre-chorus:
           D                                                  C
And I was welcomed to a paradise where fools can remember my name
              D                                                              C
They said to celebrate through the pain and burn books and things with your name
           D
But then I woke up

Woke up to the memo
      C                                 D
That your love did nothing but lead the way
                   C
To a world full of pain

Verse 2:

(Play the main riff or strum while palm muting)
                 D
Now that you’re gone
        C
Now I know better
                   D
Than letting you in (again)
                 C
Why don’t you remember?

Pre-chorus:
           D                                     C
I said I’m tired of insanity and melodramatic excuses
          D                                                       C
I said I love you but I don’t lovе when you take what I say for amusemеnt
           D
But then I woke up

Woke up to the memo
     C
That your love did nothing
            D                      C     Em
But lead my way to a world full of pain

Chorus:
           D                                 C        Em
Maybe it’s love or maybe I’m a little bit delusional
D                                         C            Em
Maybe I’m holding on, on a feeling that I used to know
             D                      C    Em
‘Cause is it real or is it make-believe?
        D                                            C
‘Cause loving you back to life would be the death of me

It’ll be the death of me

Bridge:
D                                      C
  You had me fooled for a while ‘cause
                                      D
I thought you were paradise, you’re not

Now that you’re gone, I’ve been good ‘cause
C
I’m a free man
                     D
I won’t stay the night
C                      D
 You won’t fool me again
C     Em
 No

Chorus:
           D                                 C        Em
Maybe it’s love or maybe I’m a little bit delusional
D                                         C            Em
Maybe I’m holding on, on a feeling that I used to know
             D                      C    Em
‘Cause is it real or is it make-believe?
        D                                            C
‘Cause loving you back to life would be the death of me

It’ll be the death of me
