DmIt starts with One thing I don't know why

CIt doesn't even matter how hard you try

A#Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

CTo explain in due time

DmAll I know Time is a valuable thing

CWatch it fly by as the pendulum swings

A#Watch it count down to the end of the day

CThe clock ticks life away

DmIt's so unreal Didn't look out below

CWatch the time go right out the window

A#Trying to hold on but didn't even know

CWasted it all just to

DmWatch you go I kept everything inside

CAnd even though I tried it all fell apart

A#What it meant to me will eventually

CBe a memory of a time when

Dm F C A#I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

Dm F C A#I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

DmOne thing I don't know why

CIt doesn't even matter how hard you try

A#Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

CTo remind myself how

DmI tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me

CActing like I was part of your property

A#Remembering all the times you've fought with me

C DmI'm surprised it got so (far)

DmThings aren't the way they were before

CYou wouldn't even recognize me anymore

A#Not that you knew me back then

CBut it all comes back to me

Dm(In the end)

You kept everything inside

CAnd even though I tried it all fell apart

A#What it meant to me will eventually

CBe a memory of a time when

Dm F C A#I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

Dm F C A#I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

Dm C A# CI put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go

Dm C A# CAnd for all this There's only one thing you should know

Dm C A# CI put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go

Dm C A# CAnd for all this There's only one thing you should know

Dm F C A#I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

Dm F C A#I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter
