C/G D Em

[Verse]
       C/G
It's a new day
D               Em
Another full of heartbreak
          C/G
And every time I'm checking in with myself
    D           Em
I'm drinking my soul away
                  C/G
And every time my phone lights up
   D           Em
My heart keeps skipping enough to give up
              D
You know that better days still remain
D
Cannot be insane forever
C/G       D  Em
Who knew, my ingenue
              C/G
That we could never be together
          D            Em
Unless we do a deed we can't undo?
              C/G
And even if I sing that song
   D        Em
We could be right but we could be so wrong
         D
Feed the dream, does it seem that we're pushing at the sun?

[Chorus]
           C/G        D         Em
And if you loved her, would you fake it?
          C/G     D         Em
And every letter, would you burn it?
                    C/G          D   Em
'Cause every time I hear the way she said it
            D
I can't let go, can't let go

[Verse]
(strummed/played more intensely)
C/G       D                Em
I say, if I could make you fade away
        C/G                     D
I could play the game I know so well
       Em
It's a fair trade
            C/G
Many of the things I've said
     D             Em
Were made from the beautiful things I regret
           D
Though the words we made, I feel the pain
D
Cannot know if it's worth it, never
C/G    D    Em
I knew this avenue
      C/G                                         D             Em
Where everybody has a piece of their heart on the street for us all to view
              C/G
And even if I feel alone
    D               Em
You know I'm just a man of flesh and bone
         D
Feed the dream, does it seem like we're staring at the sun?

[Chorus]
           C/G        D         Em
And if you loved her, would you fake it?
          C/G     D         Em
And every letter, would you burn it?
                    C/G          D   Em
'Cause every time I hear the way she said it
            D
I can't let go, can't let go

[Chorus]
           C/G        D         Em
And if you loved her, would you fake it?
          C/G     D         Em
And every letter, would you burn it?
                    C/G          D   Em
'Cause every time I hear the way she said it
            D
I can't let go, can't let go
