               Am      
You're just the statue 
                     F 
Of the boy I used to know 
              C 
You're just a tattoo 
                          G 
Of the words that we once spoke 
               Am      
You're the dry river 
                        F 
Where the love used to flow 
                  C 
But it still runs through me 
                   G 
With you it had to go 

           Dm                     F          C            G 
But if you take this back I'll be waiting to come alive, come alive 
       Dm                     F          C     G 
If you turn your back I'll be waiting to fly 

    Am  
But you're like the falling leaves 
F 
Whilst I'm still the oak tree 
C 
'Cause you're the one to leave 
G 
Now I'm falling asleep    
Am 
You're like the broken keys 
F 
Whilst I'm just a broken home 
C 
Cause as I breathe in deep you're looking at me 
G 
Like a statue of the boy I used to know 

              Am 
You're just a lighter 
                                F 
With no fuel to light our flame 
             C 
You know I'd fight for this 
                        G 
But you wouldn't do the same 
                      Am 
'Cause you're just a diary 
                           F 
With a blank and empty page 
        C 
But the story we wrote 
              G 
I can't quite erase 

           Dm                     F          C            G 
But if you take this back I'll be waiting to come alive, come alive 
       Dm                     F          C     G 
If you turn your back I'll be waiting to fly 

    Am  
But you're like the falling leaves 
F 
Whilst I'm still the oak tree 
C 
'Cause you're the one to leave 
G 
Now I'm falling asleep    
Am 
You're like the broken keys 
F 
Whilst I'm just a broken home 
C 
Cause as I breathe in deep you're looking at me 
G 
Like a statue of the boy I used to know 

Dm 
I'll watch you fall to the ground 
F 
'Cause there's just stone in your eyes now 
C 
We had it all, till we were found 
G 
We're just living these lies now 

    Am  
But you're like the falling leaves 
F 
Whilst I'm still the oak tree 
C 
'Cause you're the one to leave 
G 
Now I'm falling asleep    
Am 
You're like the broken keys 
F 
Whilst I'm just a broken home 
C 
And as I breathe in deep as I watch you leave 
G 
You're a statue of the boy I used to know
