Em It starts with One thing I don't know why D It doesn't even matter how hard you try C Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme D To explain in due time Em All I know Time is a valuable thing D Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings C Watch it count down to the end of the day D The clock ticks life away Em It's so unreal Didn't look out below D Watch the time go right out the window C Trying to hold on but didn't even know D Wasted it all just to Em Watch you go I kept everything inside D And even though I tried it all fell apart C What it meant to me will eventually D Be a memory of a time when Em G D C I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter Em G D C I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter Em One thing I don't know why D It doesn't even matter how hard you try C Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme D To remind myself how Em I tried so hard In spite of the way you were mocking me D Acting like I was part of your property C Remembering all the times you've fought with me D I'm surprised it got so (far) Em Things aren't the way they were before D You wouldn't even recognize me anymore C Not that you knew me back then D But it all comes back to me Em (In the end) Em You kept everything inside D And even though I tried it all fell apart C What it meant to me will eventually D Be a memory of a time when Em G D C I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter Em G D C I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matter Em D C D I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go Em D C D And for all this There's only one thing you should know Em D C D I put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go Em D C D And for all this There's only one thing you should know Em G D C I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn't even matter Em G D C I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn't even matterrr
