It Ends With a Fall

 
C                            G
Wish I could remember why it mattered to me.
           Dm
It doesn't matter to me.
           F               C
It doesn't matter to me anymore.
         Am              G
Now that you're feeling fine,
       F
I'll admit that - though I

I know it's coming down, and see it shattering me -
It doesn't matter to me,
and I'm not sadder for seeing it come.
I'm not going to run.
I will just come when I am called.

             Dm      G            Dm        G
 You want to cut me off because I took too much,
                 F                       Am                   G
 but don't leave me alone. Take off your scarves, your winter coat.
                 F    Fm
 The night's too cold.

When we met I should have said you're like a sister to me,
how all that kiss her just seem
like puny suitors I can see through,
how none will do, not for you,
how it might as well just be us two.

And when I pulled you by the jacket from the clattering street,
you started flattering me,
you started saying I was so strong.
String me along, but I can't become
all that I'm called.

             Dm          G                 Dm        G
 And I can't claim to know what makes love die or grow,
                 F                     Am              G
 but I can still take control and so refuse to just go home,
               F    Fm
 back down the hall.

 C G Dm F | 2x

 C Am
         G                  F
 And as I crawl, as finally all
              Dm       G              Dm      G
 the false confetti blooms up in this attic room,
           F
 I'm going make my stand.
          Am               G                   F     Fm
 I want to see both of your hands put down the phone.
                 C     Am                C        G                    F
 I won't let you go, although the moment stole my self-control from us all
                     Fm              C
 and now it can only end, end with a fall.
