Twenty-Five

[Intro]
Em Em Em C

[Verse 1]
                        D
In pieces, in separate rooms
                       Em
By then I had lost my voice
                         D
It was over, I couldn't cope or
                  C
Offer up anymore time
                            D
When was the last laugh we had
                           Em
Like when we were twenty-five?
                     D
It's over, what I'd hoped for
                            C
Couldn't stand being by my side

[Pre-chorus]
D Em D C

[Chorus]
                      D
How could you wanna leave?
                    Em
Put down just a memory
                       D     C
Been holding on by a string

[Verse 2]
C       D                       Em
By April, the snow was melting
                                   D   C
And I thought you'd give another try
                 D                  Em
But it was past now, gone for good now
                   D
No longer twenty-five
                   C
No longer twenty-five

[Chorus]
                      D
How could you wanna leave?
                 Em
Put down just a memory
                         D   C
Been holding on by a string
                      D
Who is it this could be
                         Em
This person in front of me?
                    D
Know I tried everything
                         C
But I'm not what you wanted

[Bridge]
C D Em D
   C                        D
I hate to call it all a mistake
                         Em
Why couldn't it come my way?
                          D
Still blaming the same escape

It was fake

[Chorus]
Gm                   D
How could you wanna leave?
                  Em
Put down just a memory
                       D
Been holding on by a string
C                     D
Who is it this could be
                         Em
This person in front of me?

Know I tried everything
