[Intro]  A  D  A  F#m  E  F#m

     A      D          A
My head is filled with ruins
         F#m       E         F#m
Most of them are built with you
          D       C#m     F#m
Now the dust no longer moves
           D         E     F#m
Don't disturb the ghost of you
Mmm

( D  A  E  F#m )

     A      D          A
They are empty, they are worn
         F#m       E         F#m
Tell me what we built this for
        D        E      F#m
On my way to something more
              D    C#m     F#m
You're that one I can't ignore

D  A  C#m  F#m
 Mmm...Mmm

 D  E  C#7    F#m
I'm gonna miss you
 D  E  C#7   F#m  E
I still care
   D          E      C#m               F#m
Sometimes I wish we never built this palace
      D                            A  D  A
But real love is never a waste of time
 
D  A  C#m  F#m
 Mmm...Mmm

          A       D            A
Yeah I know just what you're saying
         F#m   E         F#m
And I regret ever complaining
             D       E           F#m
About this heart and all its breaking
          D    E     F#m
It was beauty we were making
Mmm

( D  A  E  F#m )

        A          D        A
And I know we'll both move on
         F#m        E      F#m
You'll forgive what I did wrong
            D       E      F#m
They will love the better you
              D      E      F#m
But I still own the ghost of you
Mmm

( D  A  E  F#m )

 D  E  C#7    F#m
I'm gonna miss you
 D  E  C#7   F#m  E
I'm still there
   D          E      C#m               F#m
Sometimes I wish we never built this palace
      D                            A  D  A
But real love is never a waste of time
Mmm

[Solo]  F#m  E  F#m
        D  E  F#m  D  E  F#m

 D  E  C#7    F#m
I'm gonna miss you
 D  E  C#7   F#m  E
I'm still there
   D          E      C#m               F#m
Sometimes I wish we never built this palace
      D                            A  D  A
But real love is never a waste of time
      D                            A
But real love is never a waste of time
