[Intro]
Am  C  x2
[Versetto]
 Am                                                      C 
Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain 
   Am                                                  C 
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
[Versetto]
   Am                                F                              C 
She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones 
   Am                                F                            C 
It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone
[Pre-Ritornello]
           F     G      Am 
And I'll be gone gone tonight 
                      F      G     Am 
The ground beneath my feet is open wide 
                     F     G      Am 
The way that I been holdin' on too tight 
                    G 
With nothing in between
[Ritornello]
      C 
The story of my life I take her home 
   F 
I drive all night to keep her warm 
     Am  F 
and time 
      C 
Is frozen (the story of, the story of) 
      C 
The story of my life I give her hope 
   F                                 Am   F 
I spend her love until she's broke inside 
                C 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
[Versetto]
 Am                                                 C 
Written on these walls are the colors that I can't change 
 Am                                                 C 
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage
[Versetto]
 Am                                            F                 C 
I know that in the morning, now I'll see us in the light up on the hill 
 Am                      F                 C 
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still
[Pre-Ritornello]
           F    G       Am 
And I'll be gone gone tonight 
                   F       G       Am 
The fire beneath my feet is burning bright 
                   F       G     Am 
The way that I been holdin' on so tight 
G 
With nothing in between

[Ponte]
            Am                               G 
And I been waiting for this time to come around 
         Am                                       G 
But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds
