A#                       F
I don't want to live without your love
                    D#
I had let it go to waste
D#
But I don't want to live without your love
A#                  F
Drag it to an open window
               D#
Shred it in a million pieces
D#
I don't want to live without your love

A#                  Dm
Funny how we do without
                     D#
Everything we trade away
D#
Only in November when it's cold
                A#
Do we miss the warmth of
                  Dm
Every wound ever opened
                  D#
Every man to ever see you
D#
You should take advantage of the summer

Chorus:
D#
Cause if you're alone
            F
If you're alone
          Gm
How can I save you
          Cm                F
Or find a way to make your life
           Gm
More complicated
                 D#
What if I could change
             F
If I could change
             Gm
If you could save me
             Cm
still find a way to miss
    F       Gm
A thousand times

I don't want to live without your love
Oh, oh
I tell you what you want to hear if
What you want is incomplete
I don't want to live without your love
I don't mind how much it changes
I can look the other way
I still remember how it felt to be
crushed by something
Walk until you see the water
Just in case it disappears

You should take advantage of the summer

Chorus

Gm
so I would just sit in my car
                      A#
Listening to distant alarms go
A#
They seemed far so far so
F                         D#
Feeling the weight of the world
                         A#
nothing compares to the long road
A#
That seems hard so hard

And I would just sit in my car
Listening to distant alarms go
They seem far, so far, so
Feeling the weight of the world
It's nothing compared to the long road
That seems hard, so hard, so

Chorus
