[Verse 1]
A           C#m   Bm    F#m
  It started   kinda fun
              D
just us no we never told anyone
A              C#m   Bm      F#m
  Street lights   at midnight
           D
temptation sweet and dangerous
A              C#m  Bm  F#m
  Got caught in   a fire   but
             D
you wouldn't let it burn brighter
A          C#m     Bm       F#m
  Had me so   damn convinced
we were better off
D                 E
keeping this quiet
 
 
[Chorus 1]
D
Love in the shadows
A
It's a losing battle
E
Someone has always left in
    F#m     D
the cold If no one ever sees
   A
it What's there to believe in
E                     F#m
Did it ever matter at all?
          D       A
Knew just what to say
        E       F#m
To make me feel safe
D
Thought I was your secret
A
Swore that you could keep it
E                         F#m
Why'd you go and give me away?

something they were

Wondering how I'm the

If you're so good at secrets
