Intro: Am C Em F
       Am C Em F

 Am        C           Em          F
Take your eyes off of me so I can leave
     Am        C              Em                F
I'm far too ashamed to do it with you watching me
  Am          C               Em           F
This is never ending, we have been here before
    Am                 C                   Em
But I can't stay this time 'cause I don't love
        F
You anymore

         Am            C
Please, stay where you are
           Em      F
Don't come any closer
       Am               C
Don't try to change my mind
            Em         F
I'm being cruel to be kind

Chorus:
         F    G          Am
I can't love you in the dark
C                     F G      Am
  It feels like we're oceans apart
C          F                G
  There's so much space between us
            Am         C
Maybe we're already defeated
   F    G                 Am        C
Eeeeeeeeeeee everything changed me

 Am             C
You have given me something that
Em               F
I can't live without
     Am          C               Em             F
You mustn't underestimate that when you are in doubt
    Am               C            Em             F
But I don't want to carry on like everything is fine
     Am          C               Em
The longer we ignore it all the more that
         F
We will fight

        Am          C
Please don't fall apart,
         Em                 F
I can't face your breaking heart
      Am           C
I'm trying to be brave
     Em             F
Stop asking me to stay

Chorus:
         F    G          Am
I can't love you in the dark
C                     F G      Am
  It feels like we're oceans apart
C          F                G
  There's so much space between us
            Am         C
Maybe we're already defeated
   F    G                 Am        C
Eeeeeeeeeeee everything changed me

                F
 We are not the only ones
             G
 I don't regret a thing
        Em
 Every word I said
               Am
 You know I'll always mean
            F
 It is the world to me
              G
 That you are in my life
        D                D
 But I want to live and not just survive

F  G  Am  C
F  G  Am  C

Chorus:
                    F    G          Am
That's why I can't love you in the dark
C                     F G      Am
  It feels like we're oceans apart
C           F                G
  There is so much space between us
            Am         C
Baby, we're already defeated
       F                 G
'Cause ah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
             Am        C
Everything changed me
    F       G                      Am       C
And I-I-I-I-I don't think you can save me
