Verse 1:
[C]I used to think one [G]day we'd tell the story of [F]us,
How we met and the sparks flew instantly [C],
People would [G]say they're the lucky [F]ones.
[C]I used to know my [G]place as a spot next to [F]you,
Now I'm searching the room for an empty [C]seat,
'Cause lately I don't even [G]know what page you're [F]on.
Pre-chorus:
[G]Oh a simple compli [Am]cation,
Miscommuni [F]cations lead to [C]fall-out.
[F]So many things that I wish you knew,
[G]So many walls that I can't break through.
Chorus:
[C]Now I'm standing [Gsus4]alone in a crowded [F]room and we're not speaking,
[C]And I'm dying to [Gsus4]know is it killing [F]you like it's killing me, yeah.
[Am]I don't know what to [G]say, it's a twist of [C]fate when it all broke [F]down,
And the [Am]story of us looks a [G]lot like a tragedy [F]now.

Verse 2:
[C]How'd we end up this [G]way?
See me nervously [F]pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy,
[C]You're doing your [G]best to avoid me [F].
[C]I started to think one [G]day I'd tell the story of [F]us,
How I was losing my mind when I saw you [C]here,
But you held your [G]pride like you should've held [F]me.
Pre-chorus:
[G]Oh, I'm scared to see the [Am]ending,
Why are we [C]pretending this is [F]nothing?
[F]I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how,
[G]I've never heard silence quite this loud.
Chorus:
[C]Now I'm standing [Gsus4]alone in a crowded [F]room and we're not speaking,
[C]And I'm dying to [Gsus4]know is it killing [F]you like it's killing me, yeah.
[Am]I don't know what to [G]say, it's a twist of [C]fate when it all broke [F]down,
And the [Am]story of us looks a [G]lot like a tragedy [F]now.
(Solo):
[G] [Am] [Csus2] [F] [G] [Am] [Csus2] [F]
Bridge:
[C]This is looking like a [F]contest,
[F]Of who can act like the careless,
But [Am]I liked it better when [G]you were on my [F]side.
The [C]battle's in your [F]hands now,
[F]But I would lay my armor down
If [Am]you say you'd [G]rather love than [F]fight.
[F]So many things that you wished I knew,
[G]But the story of us might be ending soon.
Chorus:
[C]Now I'm standing [G]alone in a crowded [F]room and we're not speaking,
[C]And I'm dying to [G]know is it killing [F]you like it's killing me, yeah.
[Am]I don't know what to [G]say, it's a twist of [C]fate when it all broke [F]down,
[Am]And the story of us looks a [G]lot like a tragedy [F]now, [C]now, now [Gsus4].
Outro:
[F]And we're not speaking,
[C]And I'm dying to [G]know is it killing [F]you like it's killing me, yeah.
[Am]I don't know what to [G]say, it's a twist of [C]fate 'cause we're going [F]down,
And the [Am]story of us looks a [G]lot like a tragedy [F]now.
The end.
