[Intro]
F C G x2

[Verse 1]
G D
My heart was way too empty and the damage done too deep
F C G
To stay here for the breaking of the day
G D
My compass is in pieces and I don't know what I see
F C G
I'm not sure it matters anyway

[Chorus]
D G
'Cause what it was is gone forever
D C
What it could be, God only knows
G G/B C
And what it is is right here in front of me
G D G
And I'm not letting go

[Verse 2]
G D
Just across the border from what I used to be
F C G
I still hear the slamming of the door
G D
And the future holds a promise it doesn't have to keep
F C G
But it might not need keeping anymore

[Chorus]
D G
'Cause what it was is gone forever
D C
What it could be, God only knows
G G/B C
And what it is is right here in front of me
G D G
And I'm not letting go

[Instrumental]
F C G x2
D G D C
G C G D G

[Verse 3]
G D
I can hear the laughter as I make another plan
F C G
Set out like a fool towards the sea
G D
Every wave that crashes rearranges all the sand
F C G
And puts another path in front of me

[Chorus]
D G
'Cause what it was is gone forever
