[Intro]
Bb  D  Bb  D  Bb  D  Bb  D
 
[Verse 1]
Bb                    D               Bb             D
A thousand years could come and go and we would never change
Bb               D               Bb                D
It doesn't matter how we try, our hearts remain the same
F                  C                          F             C
You see how quickly distance grows, close your eyes and it appears
F                  C                    F             C
And we've pretended long enough, no more time, no more tears
 
[Chorus]
F           Fmaj7        Bb            C
I just can't cry, I can't cry anymore
F        Fmaj7             Bb  C            D
While you throw our lives away, throw them away
 
[Verse 2]
Bb                D            Bb        D
Something happened long ago and we grew apart
Bb                     D             Bb               D
We turned our heads the other way and so we turned our hearts
   F            C                   F           C
But girl I'm not blaming you and I'm not blaming me
    F                C                   F            C
It's just the way the story goes, we grew up but separately
 
[Chorus]
F           Fmaj7        Bb            C
I just can't cry, I can't cry anymore
F        Fmaj7             Bb    C
While you throw our lives away, oh
F           Fmaj7        Bb           C
I just can't cry, I can't cry anymore, throw them away

While you throw our lives away, yeah
F           Fmaj7        Bb           C
I just can't cry, I can't cry anymore, throw them away
