                         F#/A#
I think that maybe I was right
              B               F#/A#
Back when I knew to draw the line
                          D#m
Already gave what I could offer
             C#          F#
Maybe we'll work another time

I guess the thought of it's enough
No going back or switchin' up
I really wish that I could do that
Walking away from you is tough

                      B
I know we've run it dry
                 C#      D#m
I've heard that happens sometimes
                   C#           D#m B
I shouldn't be surprised, should I?

Chorus:
      F#                                  B
I've packed my bags in the middle of the night
    F#                                  B
A thousand times, I got up to say goodbye
   D#m                                     B
I could be wrong but I think that I'm for real
      C#
this time
      F#                                B
I've taken down all the pictures in my room
      F#                                B
I've hidden things that reminded me of you
       D#m                                 B
I know I've lied but I think that I'm for real
      C#
this time

Couldn't you tell when I was off?
You never asked me what it was
I kind of hope you feel the same way
So that I'm not the only one

Who thinks we've run it dry?
But still we've stayed a long time
I'm sorry if I make you cry tonight

Chorus

F#                B
I know that I've lied
F#                  B
But we're runnin' dry
D#m               B         C#
No, I won't come back this time
F#                B
I know that I've lied
F#                  B
But we're runnin' dry
D#m                 B         C#
Think that I'm for real this time

I've packed my bags in the middle of the night
A thousand times, I got up to say goodbye
I could be wrong, but I think that
I'm for real this time
