Consider me gone     (video)

 

    G - D - Em - C

 

   G                                                D

1.    Every time I turn the conversation to something deeper

                     C

    than the weather, I can feel you all but shuttin' down.

G                                             D

    And when I need an explanation for the silence

                   C

    you just tell me you don't wanna talk about it now.

Am                                          D

    What you're not saying is coming in loud and clear,

Am                                    D

    we're at a crossroads here.

 

                      G                                          D

If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose,

                      Em                              C

if I'm not that arrow to the heart of you,

                     G                       D

if you don't get drunk on my kiss

            Em                                        C                                  Am

if you think you can do better than this, then I guess we're done,

                             D                         G

let's not drag this on, consider me gone.

 

+  G - D - Em - C

 

    G                                                    D

2.    With you I've always been wide open, like a window

              C

    or an ocean, there is nothing I've ever tried to hide.

G                                                 D

    So when you leave me not knowin' where you're goin'

                 C

    I start thinkin' that we're lookin', we're lookin' at goodbye.

Am                                             D

    How about a strong shot of honesty ?

Am                                   D

    Don't you owe that to me ?

 

                      G                                          D

If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose,

                      Em                             C

if I'm not that arrow to the heart of you,

                     G                       D

if you don't get drunk on my kiss

            Em                                        C                                  Am

if you think you can do better than this, then I guess we're done,

                             D                         Em

let's not drag this on, consider me gone.

 

  Em                           D          - G                              C

+     Consider me a memory,        consider me the past,

Em                           D                             C

    consider me a smile in an old photograph,

                           Cm

    someone who used to make you laugh.

                           G                                         D

+  If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose,

    if I'm not that arrow to the heart of you,

                                    Am                                 D

    Then I guess we're done, let's not drag this on,

                           Am    - D                       G      - D

    consider me gone,        consider me gone,

                         Em    - C                               G     - D - Em - C - G

    consider me gone,       just consider me gone.
