"losing light" lyrics

i sit here and watch you go
starting the beginning to the end
and as i sit upon these steps
it plays inside my mind over again

you said you did what you could
you said that i'm no good
you left me in the air
you never really cared
you knew that i was lost
you burn up at any cost
you must have suddenly
realized that you're with me

send them to wake me up
like they did when we were young
we sit with our legs crossed
watching fairy tales that we trust
the battles that began
we seem to find them safe
the blankets were our walls
to shield us from the rain
chairs were rocket ships
a table was a plane
we'll fly to disney world
or up in outer space

you said you did what you could
you said that i'm no good
you left me in the air
you never really cared
you knew that i was lost
you burn up at any cost
you couldn't look at me
you wanted to be free

you said you did what you could
you said that i'm no good
you left me in the air
you never really cared
you knew that i was lost
you burn up at any cost
you didn't even try

no i'm not dead i'm dying

  1. It would be really cool if you posted the chords or if possible the sheet music and all for this song. I found it on Wikipedia and I fell in love with the melody and lyrics. Thank you.

    1. I am a left handed, self taught musician. Unfortunatly I can not read or write sheet music...I don't even understand basic tab music. I barely know the names of the guitar strings hehe. All I can say is that the song is sooo simple. It's 2 notes the entire time. The finger positions don't change. You just slide to the next fret. I also have a capo on the 4th fret. Does that help? I would love to see a cover of it if you post it on YouTube or anything. Sorry again!
