Empty Cups chords and lyrics - AMANDA SHIRES AND MAREN MORRIS

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C]

[Verse 1]
You were looking away [C]towards
the trees
There was a time you used
to [Dm]listen closer to me
As close as the air is [Em]to the sea

[Verse 2]
So close I could [C]feel you breathe
How we got here, I'd say [F]quietly
[C]As quietly as those same
[Dm]trees grew to shade
One day at a time and [Em]further away
Further and further, [Am]further away

[Verse 3]
[C]Now[G] my han[F]ds are[C]
two [F]empty cups
Maybe I was asking for a [Am]little too much
To keep the newness from [G]wearing off
For every start there's
[F]gonna be a stop

[Verse 4]
You're leaving now through the hole [C]of an
[F]argument
[C]I guess for awhile you[Am]'ve
been [Dm]looking for the exit
You slammed the door so hard I still
hear [Em]rattling spoons
The sound of silence rings in [C]every room

[Verse 5]
That last talk left me a [C]makeup
rainbow of [F]tears
[C]Turned everything blurry I[Am]
can't [Dm]see a thing from here
I tried so hard to [Em]make myself clear
Life can't help but [Am]interfere

[Verse 6]
[G]You used to [C]lean in like I was [F]whispering
Any excuse to get [Am]near again
I still miss the way [G]you lean in
What happened between [C]now and then?

[Verse 7]
And my hands are two [F]empty cups
Maybe I was asking for a [Am]little too much
[C]To keep the newness
from [G]wearing off
For every start there's [F]gonna

[Interlude 1]
be a stop
[F][C][Em][F]
[Am][G]

[Verse 8]
I was always a sucker for [C]your
wrist at my cheek
There was a time when I was
[Dm]your everything
And I tried so hard [Em]to make myself clear
Some how life [Am]interfered

[Verse 9]
[C]And my hands are two emp[F]ty cups
Maybe I was asking for a [Am]little too much
To keep the newness from [G]wearing off
For every start there's [C]gonna be a stop

[Verse 10]
My hands are two [F]empty cups
Maybe I was asking for a [Am]little too much
[C]To keep the newness from wea[G]ring off
For every start there's [F]gonna be a stop
