C  F  G  x4

[Verse 1]
C                    F     G
For the record, I blame myself
        C                    F G
It went on and on, I let me lose
C                F        G
All the best, I made it through
        C
It went on and on and on without you
F              G
On and on and on and on

[Chorus]
Am         F      C
Could you let me down?
        G
I don't feel it now
Am    F         C        G
I'm letting my head collapse 
on itself
Am         F      C
Could you need me now?
   G
I can't see how
Am F            C        G
I think I'm forgetting how 
to breathe out

For the record, I've made my hell

It goes on and on, I let it bloom

For the best, I'll stay in my room
               C
'Cause I'll be better in the morning
            F              G
And it goes on and on and on and on
