The Death Of Me

     A               C#m
On a Sunday, near September
    B                   C#m
We awoke surprised to remember
         A             C#m            B
How the light attaches to a change of heart
          A                   C#m
What was simple, now there's questions
     B                        C#m
The kind that I don'€™t look my best in
        A                C#m          B
And the ghost in me will keep us far apart

    A   C#m B
And you-ou-ou
         C#m     B
Know you don't deserve this
    A C#m B
And I-I-I
           C#m    B
Don't know how to word this

A              C#m            B
But before you go, before you go
       C#m    B       A
I just wanted you to know
       C#m            B
That I would, that I would
        C#m      B     A
I would love you if I could
        C#m                 B
But my unsteady heart's not ready
           C#m        B       A
You'd only get what's left of me
     C#m        B
Only this, only this
   C#m    B       A          C#m B
Is gonna' be the death of me
     C#m    B      A          C#m B
It's gonna' be the death of me
     C#m    B
It's gonna' be

         A          C#m            B           C#m
I would give you anything if I had anything to give left
         A                 C#m               B
But the phantoms here will never have their fill
        A                 C#m
I would tell you "I don'€™t miss her"
         B                 C#m
Cries of love reduced to a whisper
         A                 C#m
But the truth is that her ghost
              B
It haunts me still (Haunts me still)

     A  C#m B
And you-ou-ou
         C#m     B
Know you don'€™t deserve this
   A C#m B
And I-I-I
           C#m    B
Don't know how to word this

(One strum each chord)
A              C#m            B
But before you go, before you go
       C#m    B       A
I just wanted you to know
       C#m            B
That I would, that I would
(start playing downstrokes on each beat)
     C#m      B     A
I would love you if I could
        C#m                 B
But my unsteady heart's not ready
           C#m        B       A
You'd only get what's left of me
     C#m        B
Only this, only this
(*staccato downstrokes)
   C#m*    B*       A       C#m B
Is gonna' be the death of me
     C#m    B      A           C#m B
It's gonna' be the death of me
     C#m    B
It's gonna' be

A        C#m            B               C#m   B      A
 I've forgotten how it feels to have my head over my heels
A        C#m           B
 I don't want to walk away
             C#m      B       A
But it's not fair to let you stay
           C#m            B
I'll fall apart beyond a kiss
       C#m  B         A
A castaway upon your lips
     C#m      B
Only this, only
(Arpeggio picking)
                  A
Is gonna' be the death of me
       C#m        B
Gonna' be, gonna' be
C#m    B       A
Gonna' be the death of me
       C#m        B
Gonna' be, gonna' be
C#m    B       A
Gonna' be the death of me
(Resume strumming repeat chords)

Oh, gonna' be
    C#m     B      A
It's gonna' be the death of me
C#m  B
Hey, yeah
     C#m    B       A
It's gonna' be the death of me, the death of me
    C#m        B
The death of me
     C#m    B       A
It's gonna' be the death of me
     C#m       B
The death of me
The death of me
C#m    B       A
Gonna' be the death of me
