[Intro]
|E |E |
 
       E
And I hope, and I hope
 
 
[Verse]
E                                                B
 I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
                                      C#m
And now I think that I've got it all down
                                       A
And as I say it louder I love how it sounds
                                   F#
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out.
                        F#
Not wrapping this in ribbons,
                   A
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
 
 
[Chorus]
             E
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
           B
I can't believe that I stayed till today
            C#m
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
        A                 B                    E
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise.
 
 
[Verse]
E                                          B
 It came out like a river once I let it out
                                      C#m
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
                                         A
Held onto it forever just pushing it down
                               F#
Felt so good to let go of it now
                      F#
Not wrapping this in ribbons
                   A
Shouldn't have to give a reason why
 
 
[Chorus]
             E
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow.
           B
I can't believe that I stayed till today
                C#m
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
                 A                         B
There's nothing here in this soul left to say
              E
Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
               B
God knows we tried to find an easier way
            C#m
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
        A                 B
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
 
 
[Bridge]
     E
Our favorite place we used to go
     B
The warm embrace that no one knows
     C#m
The loving look that's left your eyes
         A                B             E
That's why this comes as no, as no surprise
 
 
[Verse]
E                                               B
 If I could see the future and how this plays out
                                     C#m
I bet it's better than where we are now
                                              A
But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why
 
 
[Chorus]
             E
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
           B
I can't believe that I stayed till today (Stayed till today)
            C#m
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
       A                  B                    E
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise.
 
 
[Outro]
     E
The kiss goodnight, it comes with me
       B
Both wrong and right, our memories (Our memories)
     C#m
The whispering before we sleep,
     A                    B
Just one more thing that you can't keep (You can't keep)
     E
Our favorite place we used to go
     B
The warm embrace that no one knows
     C#m
The loving look that's left your eyes
        A                 B                    E
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
 
 
[Ending]
       E
And I hope, and I hope, and I hope, and I hope, and I hope
