Em                        C
A summer drive away from dying:
a broken heart nothing to lose.
I know it hurts so bad just trying
to please the ones you hate to love.
Am7                         C                 Em             D
And I wrote this note about someone I used to know
          Am7        C
so I'd remember how life can be so short
C
when your left alone to wonder how it is
C                           G
someone opens and shuts the door.

            D             C
I know your cold but come home.
         G       D                 C
It's a shame how short we all have come.

Em C G D

Em                          C
You set your mind on cruise control;
knuckles grip the wheel in fear to let it go.
Am7                    C                                 Em
Love is empty ,love is cruel, love it blindly breaks the rules.
                          D
How could you have been a fool?
                            Am7
It's something all of us go through.
                                 C
You choke back tears and swallow lies
                                     Em
but those wiper blades won't fix you eyes,
                        D                            G
count on having clouded vision for at least a little while.

                  D             C
And I know you're cold but come home:
         G       D                 C                  G
it's a shame how short we all have come.
                  D             C
And I know you're cold but come home.
              Em                        D             C
Please don't face the headlights of the oncoming cars alone.
    Em     C       G    D
We wont forget the pa---st.
    Em     C       G    D                      G
We wont forget the pa---st. (And I know you're cold)
            D                          Em

            C
I wont look back
                G
and I wont look back.
             D
Say all the answers
                   Em
and I will let you go.
               C

               G
I will let you go
