Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
What would it [G]take to
gain ac[Bm]ceptance[G]
To the grounds behind your [Bm]eyes[Em]
You know I'm open to
[Bm]sugges[A]tion
The one you made we never tried
[D]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
Let it slip right out from [F#m]under
Your [D]breath and it rolled
around my [G]head[Bm]
[G]It was[Bm] nothing I'd conside[G]r[A]
I knew it had to happen [D]then

[Verse 3]
[G]
Stood on the banks of the
Po[Bm]tomac[G]
We watched the water
rushing [Bm]by[Em]
You said we should live in the moment
[Bm]Then[G] I'd[Bm] mis[A]s
you all the time
[D]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]
And I know no one will be[F#m]lieve [D]me
But I don't want a second [G]chance[Bm]
To be an object of de[G]sire[A]
If that means slipping through your [D]hands
If [Bm]I had tri[D]ed to make you min[A]e
You would have walked away
[D]I can[Bm] 't com[F#m]pete
with [G]memories
They never [F#m]have to

[Interlude 1]
change
[F#m][D][Bm][G][D][Bm]
[G]

[Verse 5]
This world is [G]full of missing [Bm]persons[G]
All of these unsolved mysteries
[Bm]If s[G]omeo[Bm]ne s[Em]ays they
know for cer[Bm]tain[A]
They're selling something [G]certainly
[D]

[Verse 6]
[Bm]So when I set myself to wond[F#m]er[D]
All the questions that re[G]main[Bm]
The only one that even mat[G]ters[A]
Is when I'll see you're face again
[D]

[Verse 7]
I keep [Bm]looking [D]back for [A]artifacts
To prove that you were [D]here
[Bm]The sound that's been
[F#m]keep s e[G]choing
It never dis[F#m]ap pea[A]rs[D]

[Outro 1]
[Bm][G][D][Bm][G]
