BmIt starts with One thing I don't know why

AIt doesn't even matter how hard you try

GKeep that in mind I designed this rhyme

ATo explain in due time

BmAll I know Time is a valuable thing

AWatch it fly by as the pendulum swings

GWatch it count down to the end of the day

AThe clock ticks life away

BmIt's so unreal Didn't look out below

AWatch the time go right out the window

GTrying to hold on but didn't even know

AWasted it all just to

BmWatch you go I kept everything inside

AAnd even though I tried it all fell apart

GWhat it meant to me will eventually

ABe a memory of a time when

Bm D A GI tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

Bm D A GI had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

BmOne thing I don't know why

AIt doesn't even matter how hard you try

GKeep that in mind I designed this rhyme

ATo remind myself how

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

AActing like I was part of your property

GRemembering all the times you've fought with me

A BmI'm surprised it got so (far)

BmThings aren't the way they were before

AYou wouldn't even recognize me anymore

GNot that you knew me back then

ABut it all comes back to me

Bm(In the end)

You kept everything inside

AAnd even though I tried it all fell apart

GWhat it meant to me will eventually

ABe a memory of a time when

Bm D A GI tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

Bm D A GI had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter

Bm A G AI put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go

Bm A G AAnd for all this There's only one thing you should know

Bm A G AI put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go

Bm A G AAnd for all this There's only one thing you should know

Bm D A GI tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter

Bm D A GI had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter
