Letter To The Past

INTRO:
D        D
 It's a game
                      G
Baby, it's just a game
                           D        D       Bm
And nobody loses when you learn to love the one
     C            G
Who finally wins sometimes
Gsus4 G          D
     You'll be wrong

        D                        G
'Cause sometimes, we get it wrong
                         D
But nobody leaves here alive
     D       Bm         C          G
And nothin' holy comes from bein' right
Gsus4 G         Bm                    A
      So don't hold your breath like that

             G
Baby, let it go
Gsus4 G            Bm              A
     You're gonna feel it in your back
               C
Believe me, I oughta know


CHORUS:
          D
You're a stone wall
                    A
In a world full of rubber bands
          Bm
You're a pillar of belief
 A                   G
Still fightin' your shakin' hands

                 D
Folks are gonna lean on you
                     A
And leave when the cracks appear
                   Bm
But, darlin', I'll be here
 A              G
I'll be the la-ast

           Gm            D   D C G D
You're my letter to the past


VERSE:
         D
You can cry
                                G
You know it's always okay to cry
                             D
You don't even need to know why
     D        Bm          C      G
But don't you ever feel alone inside
Gsus4 G       Bm
      If you need to know the truth
A                      G
I still haven't got a clue

        Bm                 A
If the blind can lead the blind
                      C
Then, baby, I'm just like you


CHORUS:
          D
You're a stone wall
                    A
In a world full of rubber bands
          Bm
You're a pillar of belief
 A                   G
Still fightin' your empty' hands

                 D
Folks are gonna lean on you
                     A
And leave when the cracks appear
                   Bm
But, darlin', I'll be here
 A              G
I'll be the la-ast
           Gm               Bm A G
You're my letter to the past

Still hidin' your empty hands

And leave when the cracks appear
 F#         Bm
Darlin', I will be here

I'll be the last

OUTRO:
        D
It's a game
                                 G
You know it's okay to lose a game
                          D
But always remember your name
     D       Bm
And have no shame
    C           G
Because you're built to last
