Intro: Em C#m B G#m A x2
Verse 1:
What's the furthest
place from here?
It hasn't been my day
for a couple years
What's a couple more?
Refrain 1:
And if I go don't forget
the one good thing I almost did
I learned your name without words
I used my eyes not my hands
Post Chorus: Em--C#m--B-G#m-A-E--C#m--B--G#m-A-
Verse 2:
What's the closest you can come
to an almost total wreck
and still walk away
All limbs intact?
Refrain 2:
And when I go you'll be
there crying out begging me
I won't hear I'll just go fast
into this night on broken legs
Chorus 1:
A near miss or a close call?
I keep a room at the hospital
I scratch my accidents
into the wall
I couldn't wait to
breathe your breath
I cut in line
I bled to death
I got to you there
was nothing left
Interlude: Em--C#m--B-G#m-A-E--C#m--B--G#m-A-
Verse 3:
What's the meanest you can be
to the one you claim to love
And still smile to
your your new found friends?
Refrain 3:
In the same confusing breath
You pull away and draw me in
I wanted you You wanted more
I built this life and now it's mine
Chorus 2:
A near miss or a close call?
I keep a room at the hospital
I scratch my accidents
into the wall
I couldn't wait to
breathe your breath
I cut in line
I bled to death
I got to you there
was nothing left
Bridge: F#m--E--B--A--F#m--G#m--B--A-- x8
Chorus 3:
A near miss or a close call?
I keep a room at the hospital
I scratch my accidents
into the wall
I couldn't wait to
breathe your breath
I cut in line
I bled to death
I got to you there
was nothing left
I got to you there
was nothing left
I got to you there
was nothing left
I got to you there
A(hold)
was nothing left
