Autumn Chords by NIKI

C                           Am      F
 I carved my name into your ribcage
C                             Am        F
 We talked of lands away from this cage
            C
 You said, "Don't fret love
                                     Am
 Someday i'll be my own man, I'll be free"
                          F
 Oh! but darling, Did you mean
                  G              C
 Darling, Did you mean free from me?


C
 You promised home
                    Am                     F
 The kind i'd never known, Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
             C       
 But here we are, Skin and flesh and beating hearts, And
                        F
 I'm wondering what the hell i'm doing wrong
                  C
 You said, "Let's make ourselves our very own brigade
                            Am
 This love, Our shield, Our blade"
                         F                         G
 Oh! but darling, Do you see the cuts from which i bleed?
                C
 It's me you've slain


  F                       G
I didn't obliteratе these walls for you
                    C
To come and raid my homе
    F
And here you are, Right next to me
G                                C
Ironically, I've never felt more alone


C                              Am          F
 I fell for you, Faster than i fell apart (Hmm!)
       C
 And i guess i'm the one to blame
                    F
 For letting myself fall too hard

 I ripped my heart out, And put it in your hands
                            C
 In hope that we'd put up a fight (Hmm!)
         F
 How paradoxical, Since now
           G                                C
 All i can think about is when will we stop trying

 (Oh! Oh! Oh!)


C
Oh! Oh! Oh!
          C    Am
How do we stay afloat?
        F     G   C
When do i let go?
        C
All you do is blindside me, It's hard to be brave
             Am
But when the night cuts into the day, It's your love i crave
  F                                  G
I must've thanked my lucky stars too much
                                 C
They left me sitting in too much dust (Hmm! Oh! Oh!)
    C
You know all my dreams, You were one, So it seemed
      Am
And i love you but with you, It's heartache i breathe
    F                           G                          C
You gave it your all, Just with everything you took from me


C           Am
Oh! my love
                       F
Is this the end for us?
      G
Maybe we've had enough
