Verse:
F C
wake up in the middle of the night
G Dm Bb
the air is so heavy my head's screwed on too tight
F C
and in the glow of the christmas lights i watch you sleep
F C
the hands on the cigarette clock are just
G Dm Bb
time ticking away this love i've got
F C
there's no way to make it stop before you wake

Chorus:
Bb F C
i know you're leaving me
Bb F C
this is not the way that i was brought up to believe that it would be
Bb F C
i know you're leaving me
Bb F
i'm running round in circles trying to figure out
C
just who i'm supposed to be
Verse:
we go down to prospect park
to watch the light become the dark
and i don't think i've ever been this scared
outside as the yellow moon rises
i know this time it won't surprise us
but that don't mean that i will be prepared
Chorus
Bridge:
Dm G
i'm so tired of writing sad songs
F Am G
but my mind's on misery
Dm G
and i know there's time until you're gone
Bb
but i can't let it be
C
i can't let it be
