C Fmaj7
They say it fades if you let it

love was made to forget it

I carved your name across my eyelids
Gsus4 E7/G#
You pray for rain I pray for blindness

If you still want me, please forgive me

The crown of love has fallen from me
Am F
If you still want me, please forgive me
C G
Because the spark is not within me

C Fmaj7 C
I snuffed it out before my mom walked in my bedroom
C Fmaj7
The only thing that you keep changin’

Still the same, just like a cancer

And you won’t give me a straight answer
[Chorus]

If you still want me, please forgive me

I shrugged them off before my mom walked in my bedroom

The pains of love, and they keep growin’

On the grave of our old love
Gsus4 E7/G#
Since you gave me a straight answer
