VERSE 1 (W/ VERSE RI)
C#5 A#5 G#5
I found the pieces in my hand
C#5 A#5 G#5
They were always there It just took some time for me to understand
C#5 A#5 G#5
You gave me words I just can’t say
C#5 A# G#5
So if nothing else I’ll just hold on while you drift away
PRE-CHORUS 1
D#5 C#5
Cause everything you wanted me to hide
D#5 C#5 G#5 A#5
Is everything that makes me feel alive
CHORUS
C#5
The cities grow
A#5
The rivers flow
G#5
Where you are, I never know
C#5 A#5 G#5
But I’m still here
C#5
If you were right and
A#5
I was wrong
G#5
Why are you the one who’s gone
C#5 A#5 G#5
And I’m still here
C#5
I’m still here
VERSE 2 (W/ VERSE RI)
C#5 A#5 G#5
You’ve seen the ashes in my heart
C#5 A#5 G#5
You smile the widest when I cry inside and my insides blow apart
C#5 A#5 G#5
I tried to wear another face
C#5 A#5 G#5
Just to make you proud, just to make you put me in my place
PRE-CHORUS 2
D#5 C#5
But everything you wanted from me
D#5 C#5 G#5 A#5
Is everything that I could never be
CHORUS
C#5
The cities grow
A#5
The rivers flow
G#5
Where you are, I never know
C#5 A#5 G#5
But I’m still here
C#5
If you were right and
A#5
I was wrong
G#5
Why are you the one who’s gone
C#5 A#5 G#5
And I’m still here
C#5
I’m still here
And I’m still here
BRIDGE
C#5 D#5 F5
Maybe tonight, it’s gonna be alright
A#5 G#5
I will get better
C#5 A#5 F5
Maybe today , it’s gonna be okay
A#5 G#5 A#5
I will remember
VERSE 3 (W/ VERSE RI UNTIL INAL G#5)
C#5 A#5 G#5
I held the pieces of my soul
C#5 A#5 G#5
I was shattered and I wanted you to come and make me whole
C#5 A#5 G#5
Then I saw you yesterday
C#5 A#5 G#5
but you didn’t notice, you just walked away
PRE-CHORUS 3

Cause everything you wanted me to hide

Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow
A#5
The rivers flow
G#5
Where you are, I never know
C#5 A#5 G#5
But I’m still here

If you were right and
A#5
I was wrong
G#5
Why are you the one who’s gone
C#5 A#5 G#5
And I’m still here
OUTRO CHORUS
C#5
The lights go out
A#5
the bridges burn
G#5
Once you’re gone, you can’t return
C#5 A#5 G#5
But I’m still here
C#5
Remember how
A#5
You used to say
G#5
I’d be the one to run away
C#5 A#5 G#5
But I’m still here
C#
I’m still here
I’m still here
