Hi! I love this song and it's so fun to play! A regular
'A' can be used for the A4 but I think they're easier and
it sounds just as good. Have fun!
*Thanks to jvizzle4shizzle for the suggestion- change D to Bm
on "story" (last line of the chorus) :)

Dsus2 [xx0230]
D [xx0232]
A [x02220] **Update**
Asus4 [x02230] Rather than regular D's in the
G [3x0033] intro and the solos, I think
Bm [x04432] D2's sound more accurate.

[Intro]
A Bm Dsus2 G
A Bm Dsus2 G
[Verse 1]
D A G
I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
D
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
A G
People would say, "They're the lucky ones"
D A G
I used to know my place was a spot next to you
D
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
A G
'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm
Oh, a simple complication
G D
Miscommunications lead to fall out
G
So many things that I wish you knew
A
So many walls that I can't break through
[Chorus]
D Asus4 G
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
D
And we're not speaking
Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
When it all broke down
Bm A G N.C.
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now - Next chapter
A Bm Dsus2 G
[Verse 2]
D A
How'd we end up this way?
G
See me nervously pulling at my clothes
D
And trying to look busy
A G
And you're doing your best to avoid me
D A G
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
D
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
A G
But you held your pride like you should have held me
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm
Oh, we're scared to see the ending
G D
Why are we pretending this is nothing?
G
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how
A N.C.
I've never heard silence quite this loud
[Chorus]
D Asus4 G
Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
D
And we're not speaking
Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
When it all broke down
Bm A G
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
A Bm Dsus2 G
A Bm Dsus2 G
[Verse 3]
D -once G
This is looking like a contest
(G)
Of who can act like they care less
Bm A G
But I liked it better when you were on my side
D G
The battle's in your hands now
(G)
But I would lay my armor down
Bm A G
If you'd say you'd rather love than fight
[Pre-Chorus]
G
So many things that you wish I knew
A N.C.
But the story of us might be ending soon
[Chorus]
D (2x *fast/stop)
Now I'm standing alone
Asus4 (2x*) G -once G
In a crowded room and we're not speaking
D Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
G
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
When it all broke down
Bm
And the story of us
A G D Asus4
Looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, no-----ow
[Outro]
G D
And we're not speaking
Asus4 G
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
(G)
Like it's killing me?
Bm A D
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate
G
'Cause we're going down
Bm A G N.C.
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now - The end

Okay... I finally had some time to really work this one out. I did it in a rush which is a no no when you're a beginner I guess!! (I knew there were parts that were off but I was in a rush to get to a football game! I still don't think it was a 1 star though, at least a 21/2- 3! LOL!) So check back when it updates:) Thanks for the criticism! It makes me have to get serious and not be lazy!!

That was quick! Yay! I really love this song I can't believe their are no other versions on here. I thought it would be one of the more popular songs from the album. Whatever! I love it!!
