[Intro]
|Eb  |Eb F |
|Eb  |Eb F |
 
[Verse 1]
Eb                                  F
Look at my mind, I'm feeling like a drunkard
Eb
Don't hit me like it used to do
    F              Eb
I'm burnin' like a coal thrown down in the ocean
F              Eb
Running out of time when I look at you
    F            Eb
I'm hanging by a thread, just tryna remember
        F          Eb
All the things you said that you needed to do
    F               Eb
I'm breaking like a wave strung out on the water
F            Eb                         F       Gm
Holding onto anything that I can use to pull me through
 
[Chorus]
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
 
[Interlude]
|Gm  |Gm  |Gm  |Gm  |
 
[Verse 2]
Eb
I'm tired of the same emotion
     F              Eb
Just humming like a dead line on the wire
    F             Eb
I'm drifting on a wave of cold illusion
     F              Eb
It's all that I can do on the funeral pyre
    F               Eb
You could've been a wraith or maybe a brother
    F          Eb
The city light burns as you walk on by
     F              Eb
It's burning like a cigarette out of the ashes
F            Eb
Hanging on a breeze, I see them break
  F         Gm
Towards the sky
 
[Chorus]
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
 
[Bridge]
                 Gm
I'm hanging by a thread, just tryna remember
                   F
All the things you said that you needed to do
                      Eb
I'm breaking like the wave strung out on the water
             F                                  Gm
Holding onto anything that I can use to pull me through

|Eb  |Eb  |F   |F |
 
[Chorus]
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
Gm                           F
I never really wanted you to know
                                 Eb
It's not like I was just another darkened door
                              F
Holding onto something that I never had
