Fmaj7                                          Cmaj7
First thing to go, was the sound of his voice, ah
   Em     Am        Fmaj7                   G G7
It echoes still I'm sure, but I can't hear it
        F                             E
Was it gentle or cold, or maybe just noise, ah
                Am       Fmaj7     G G7
I heard what I wanted, until I couldn't

Chorus:
    F    G         F  G
And I, scared to lose
F  G       F     G
I was left of you

Time moves slow, I just talk to myself, I
Finish my own sentences the way you used to (Mmm)
Why do memories glow the way real moments don't? Ah
My altar is full of all love's delusions

Chorus:
And I, mmm
And I, mmm
And I'm scared to lose
And I (I)
What's left of you (I)
I should forget
But I love what's left

The first thing to go was the sound of his voice
