[Intro]
A D A  F#m E F#m
[Strophe]
   A       D           A 
My head is filled with ruins 
        F#m      E          F#m 
Most of them are built with you 
        D       E      F#m 
Now the dust no longer moves 
         D        E        F#m 
Don't disturb the ghost of you
[Instrumentale]
D A  E F#m 
Mmm
[Strophe]
         A      D        A 
They are empty, they are worn 
        F#m     E          F#m 
Tell me what we built this for 
      D      E         F#m 
On my way to something more 
            D     E       F#m 
You're that one I can't ignore
[Instrumentale]
D A E F#m 
Mmm
[Refrain]
D E C#7      F#m 
I'm    gonna miss you 
D E C#7    F#m  E 
I    still care 
D           E       C#               F#m   E 
Sometimes I wish we never built this palace 
    D                             A D A 
But real love is never a waste of time
[Instrumentale]
F#m E F#m 
Mmm
[Strophe]
       A         D           A 
Yeah I know just what you're saying 
        F#m   E      F#m 
And I regret ever complaining 
           D         E       F#m 
About this heart and all its breaking 
       D      E       F#m 
It was beauty we were making
[Instrumentale]
D A E F#m 
Mmm
[Strophe]
      A          D         A 
And I know we'll both move on 
          F#m       E     F#m 
You'll forgive what I did wrong 
          D        E      F#m 
They will love the better you 
            D       E        F#m 
But I still own the ghost of you
[Instrumentale]
D A E F#m 
Mmm
[Refrain]
D E C#7    F#m 
I'm  gonna miss you 
D E C#7    F#m  E 
I'm  still there 
D           E       C#               F#m   E 
Sometimes I wish we never built this palace 
    D                             A D A 
But real love is never a waste of time
[Solo]
F#m E F#m
D E F#m D E F#m
[Refrain]
D E C#7    F#m 
I'm  gonna miss you 
D E C#7    F#m  E 
I'm  still there 
D           E       C#               F#m   E 
Sometimes I wish we never built this palace 
    D                             A D A 
But real love is never a waste of time 
    D                             A 
But real love is never a waste of time
