Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Our [C]perfect
love has [G]died
You know this [D]as well as [G]I
We've tried and [C]tried and [G]tried
Now Its Time [D]to face up [G]to it

[Verse 2]
One thing [C]binds us [G]still
And that's a chain [D]no- one can [G]see
To which you [C]hold [G]the key
Here's the lock
[D]Don't hold bac[G]k

[Verse 3]
[C]The other day I found my wedding ring
I'd clean forgot that I [G]lost that [D]thing
[G]The hurts here
[C]The goods gon[G]e
I don't know why you [D]keep
me [G]on

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 4]
Desire's what [C]made us [G]fight
All those times [D]in to [G]the night
Lord how we'd [C]scratch and [G]bite
[Em]Now we don't even do t[D]hat no more[G]

[Verse 5]
[C]I'm not trying to buck the blame
We both must [G]shoulder that [D]shame
[G]The hurts here
[C]The goods gon[G]e
I don't know why you [D]keep
[G]me [C]on[G]

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 6]
[C]Every time,
I try to picture your face
Nowadays I see an [G]empty space
[C]Tell me, are you blind and deaf
Just what is it that you [G]think is [D]left?

[Verse 7]
[G]But hurt strong
[C]And good gon[G]e
I don't know why you [D]keep me on
[G]I don't know why you kee[D]p me [G]on

[Outro 1]
