Oblivion

Verse 1:
Dmaj7                            Dbm
Pride in myself was something i swore would never die
Dmaj7                          Dbm
Gaining respect means giving up a past life
Dmaj7                      Dbm
The illusion crafted by my arrogance
     Dmaj7                            Dbm
had protected me from the wrong that I couldn't admit

Pre-Chorus 1:
Dmaj7                            Dbm7
Now I lay across the dust ridden floor
                                         Dmaj7
Knowing now that regrets shouldn’t be ignored
                                         Dbm7
Left to waste, now i see how you must've felt
                                      Dmaj7
When the world began to change and I followed

Chorus 1:
Dmaj7                               Dbm7
Floods of memories drown me in the abyss
                                                  Dmaj7
Ceiling fades, empty space, hanging barely from a cliff
                          Dbm
that's thousands of feet tall
          Dmaj7 Dbm
and now I fall
      Dmaj7
Now I fall
  Dbm
into oblivion

Verse 2:
Dmaj7                  Dbm
Landing back at the beginning of our prime
               Dmaj7                                   Dbm
We'd built ourselves and our kingdom in the summer sun
Dbm
one brick at a time

Pre-Chorus 2:
Dmaj7                                      Dbm7
Now those walls are nothing but rubble and dust
                                                Dmaj7
What was once silver lining of us has turned to rust
                                             Dbm7
In those days when we’d fight our demons together
                               Dmaj7
If we had started over, oh, I wonder

Chorus 2:
Dmaj7                                Dbm7
Would I be descending through the darkness,
                                      Dmaj7
through the fire and the rain and the mist?
                                           Dbm
would the air fail to catch me as I failed to catch you?
               Dmaj7 Dbm
Would we have fallen
  Dmaj7
fallen
  Dbm
into oblivion?

Bridge:
Dmaj7
      Alone in this empty room
Dbm
    All I hear now is the
Dmaj7          Dbm
Ambience of our faded tune
     Dmaj7            Db
How fragile of me to break so easily
      D
Fear took the lead, now
Db             -nc-
I'm still falling

Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 Dbm
Dmaj7 Dbm
          Ooh, oh
 Dmaj7  Dbm
Falling
  Dmaj7   Dbm      Dmaj7  Dbm  Dmaj7
Falling into oblivion
Dbm
Into oblivion
