[chorus]
[E] [F#m] [Bm] [E] [F#m]
I could [E]live in my head
[C#]Writing up [F#m]a script of words that [A]were never said
[C]Things that never happened to [E]me
But there are [Am]plenty more fish in the [E]sea [C] [B]

[Opening]
I could [E]go for a walk
[C#]Pretend the [F#m]sunshine on my skin could [A]silence my thoughts
[C]And longing for what could [E]be
But that [C]doesn’t come [B]so [E]easily [C] [B]

[Closing]
I could [A]drive myself mad
[F#m]Endlessly reliving moments [C]we never had
[C]Painting brighter memories
[C#m]That cant match up to what’s real, I can’t hold [Em]on to the past
[D#]Hope that [D]this wont last [C] [B]

[chorus]
I could [E]live in my head
[C#]Writing up [F#m]a script of words that [A]were never said
