[Verse 1]
                D F#m       Bm
You're sleeping   night and day
Em7  D         A
     How'd you do it?
        D F#m   Bm
Me I am   wide awake
Em7  D          A
     Feeling defeated


[Chorus 1]
          D                A
I say your name, I say I'm sorry
               Bm                G
I know it's not working, I'm no holiday
             D                 A
It's nobody's fault, no guilty party
           Bm                 G
We just got nothing, nothing left to say


[Verse 2]
       D    F#m      Bm
Another year   gets away
Em7        D           A
    Another summer of love
            D   F#m    Bm
I don't know why   I care
Em7    D              A
    We miss it every summer


[Chorus 2]
          D                A
I say your name, I say I'm sorry
           Bm                       G
I'm the one doing this, there's no other way
             D                 A
It's nobody's fault, no guilty party
          Bm                 G
I just got nothing, nothing left to say


[Post-Chorus]
       Bm A           Em       G
It all,   all catches up to me
       Bm A           Em       G
It all,   all catches up to me
        (Bm)
All the time

We just got nothing, nothing left to say
