'Cause I let you down when I lost my focus
A                                       G
I tried my best but you didn't notice, yeah, oh yeah

    D
And it's not your fault that we are here
               A
It's not your fault you want independence
               G
Sometimes two people break when they're
bendin', yeah
    D
And it's not my fault that we are here
             A
It's not my fault that I love intensely
               G
Sometimes two people can't make their ends
meet, yeah

Chorus:
D                     A
Oh, I know I'm gonna miss wakin' up
to you in the mornin'
G
Oh, I'll go 'fore it gets too late
D                  A
Oh, I don't wanna leave you here but
you're more important

Oh, I'll go 'fore I ask to stay

I'm walkin' away (I'm walkin' away)
G                              N.C.
I'm walkin' away (I'm walkin', yeah)

You're going home to all of your friends
And I can't believe that this is the end, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
We're just a ghost of people in love
We can't build a home out of all the dust, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah

And it's not your fault that we are here
It's not your fault you want something different
Sometimes two people don't share the vision, yeah
And it's not my fault that we are here
It's not my fault that I'm always going
Sometimes two people change without knowing, yeah

D             A
I'm walkin' away (I'm walkin' away)

I'm walkin' away (I'm walkin')

I'm walkin' away (I'm walkin' away)
G
I'm walkin' away (I'm walkin' away)
              D
I'm walking away

Chorus:
It's not your fault that we are here
It's not your fault you need time on your own
Sometimes two people need to be alone, yeah
It's not my fault that we are here
It's not my fault that I want my person
Sometimes two people can't stop the hurting, yeah
I'm walking away
