My Immortal

I'm so tired of be vate ing (Em)here,

your resonating (C)light.

suppressed by all my (Em)childish fears.

behind. (C)And if you have to leave,

(Em)I wish that you would just leave.

(C)'Cause your presence still lingers here,

(Em)and it won't leave me alone.

(Am)me. (Em)These wounds won't seem to (Am)heal,

(Em)this pain is just too (Am)real.

(Em)There's just too much that (G)time cannot erase.

(Am)When you (F)cried, I'd (G)wipe away (Em7)all of your tears.

(Am)When you'd (F)scream, I'd (G)fight away (Em7)all of your fears.

(Am)And I've (F)held your (G)hand through (Em7)all of these years,

(Am)but you (F)still

(G)have all of (C)me.

(C)You used to capti vate me (Em)by your resonating (C)light.

Now I'm bound by the (Em)life you left behind.

(C)And Your you face, it haunts

(Em)my wish once pleas would ant dreams.

(C)'Cause Your voice, ence it chased away

(Em)all it the sanity in (Am)me.

(Em)These wounds won't seem to (Am)heal,

(Em)this pain is just too (Am)real.

(Em)There's just too much that (G)time cannot erase.

(Am)When you (F)cried, I'd (G)wipe away (Em7)all of your tears.

(Am)When you'd (F)scream, I'd (G)fight away (Em7)all of your fears.

(Am)And I've (F)held your (G)hand through (Em7)all of these years,

(Am)but you (F)still

(G)have all of (C)me.

(F)(me.) tried so (Am)hard to tell (Em)myself that you're (F)gone.

But (Dm7)though you're still (Em7)with me,

(F)I've been (G)alone all along.

(C)me.
