Lyrics

The (D)pow er lines went (Gmaj7)out and I am all a (D5)lone.

But I don’t real ly (Gmaj7)care at all, not an Play swer ing my (D5)phone.

All the games you (Gmaj7)played, the prom is es you (D5)made, could n’t fin ish (D)what you (G)start ed, on ly dark ness still re (D)mains.

Lost (G)sight,

could n’t (D)see,

when it was (Asus)you and (A7)me.

Blow the can dles out, looks like a so lo to (Bm7)night.

I’m be (Asus)gin ning to see the light.

Blow the can dles out, looks like a so lo to (Bm)night.

But I (A5)think I’ll be al right.

Been black and blue be (Gmaj7)fore, there’s no need to ex (D5)plain.

But I am not the (Gmaj7)jad ed kind.

not an Play back’s such a (D5)waste.

You’re in vis i (Gmaj7)ble, in vis i ble to (D5)me.

My n’t wish is (D)com ing (G)true.

E rase the mem ’ry of your (D)face.

Lost (G)sight,

could n’t (D)see,

when it was (Asus)you and (A7)me.

Blow the can dles out, looks like a so lo to (Bm7)night.

I’m be (Asus)gin ning to see the light.

Blow the can dles out, looks like a so lo to (Bm)night.

But I (A5)think I’ll be al right.

Been black and blue be One day,

you will wake up

with noth ing but “You’re sor (G)rys.”

And some day,

you will get back (D)ev ’ry thing you gave me.

Blow the can dles out, looks like a so lo to (Bm7)night.

I’m be (Asus)gin ning to see the light.

Blow the can dles out, looks like a so lo to (Bm)night.

But I (A5)think I’ll be al right.
