[Chorus]
Cadd9
Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
Cadd9 #* *
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told
Cadd9
So let’s pretend a little longer
A7sus4
Cause when we’re gone,
Cadd9 Dadd4
Everything goes on
[Verse 1]
Cadd9
Well, you were staring at the window
Cadd9
And I said, “I’ll just bring the sea to you”
But if I was gone tomorrow, Won’t the waves crash on?

[Chorus]
Cadd9
Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
Cadd9 #* *
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told
Cadd9
So let’s pretend a little longer
A7sus4
Cause when we’re gone,
Cadd9
Everything goes on
[Verse 2]
Cadd9
And I’m so scared of getting used to this
Cadd9
All the vines that keep you tethered in your room
Cadd9
Said, "I’m sorry that you worried"
But don’t apologize
Cadd9
I told you to forget me
#*
But you stayed by my side
*
When I said:
[Chorus]
Cadd9
"Don’t try to make yourself remember, darling
Cadd9 #* *
Don’t look for me, I’m just a story you’ve been told"
Cadd9
So let’s pretend a little longer
A7sus4
And when we’re gone,
Cadd9
Everything goes on
