Verse:
               Ebm
It starts with one thing I don't know why
   Db
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
B
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
   Db
To explain in due time
 

         Ebm
All I know, time is a valuable thing
Db
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
B
Watch it count down to the end of the day
         Db
The clock ticks life away
 

          Ebm
It's so unreal, didn't look out below
Db
Watch the time go right out the window
B
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
   Db
Or wasted it all just to 
 

          Ebm
Watch you go, I kept everything inside
    Db
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
B
What it meant to me will eventually be
   Db
a memory of a time when
 
Chorus:
           Ebm              Gb
I tried so hard and got so far
           Db                   B
But in the end it doesn't even matter
         Ebm              Gb
I had to fall to lose it all
           Db                   B
But in the end it doesn't even matter
 
Verse:
Ebm
One thing, I don't know why
   Db
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
B
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
   Db
To remind myself how
 

           Ebm                                         Db
I tried so hard, in spite of the way you were mocking me
                                     B
Acting like I was part of your property
                                          Db
Remembering all the times you fought with me
 

                        Ebm
I'm surprised it got so far
                                     Db
Things aren't the way they were before
                                     B
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
                                   Db
Not that you knew me back then but it all comes back to me 
 

       Ebm
In the end you kept everything inside
         Db
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
B
What it meant to me will eventually be
       Db
a memory of a time when
 
Chorus:
           Ebm              Gb

But in the end it doesn't even matter
         Ebm              Gb
I had to fall to lose it all 
           Db                   B
But in the end it doesn't even matter

Bridge:
            Ebm       Db
I've put my trust in you
          B           Db
Pushed as far as I can go
             Ebm
And for all this 
             Db                    B   Db
There's only one thing you should know

I had to fall to lose it all
           Db                   B
But in the end it doesn't even matter
