C
How can I know
           Bm
How can I see it through your eyes
C
Now you know
            Bm
All those promises were lies

A
You close your eyes
You close your mind
            G  D
To all you lost
A
I count the days
I count the ways
             G  D
I count the cost

Chorus:
             A
All that you are, no conscience
           G
All you believe, no pride
              D/F#
All that you take, no reason
              G
All that you leave, no right
              A
All that you lose, no sorrow
              G
All that you find, no shame
       D/F#           G              A
Can't take away the scar you left behind

How do you cry
When you've run right of tears
You justify
But the pain won't disappear

I count the days
I count the ways
I count the cost

             A
All that you are, no conscience
           G
All you believe, no pride
              D/F#
All that you take, no reason
              G
All that you leave, no right
              A
All that you lose, no sorrow
              G
All that you find, no shame
       D/F#           G
Can't take away the scar you left

You close your eyes
You close your mind
To all you lost
I count the days
I count the ways
I count the cost

Chorus
