[Primeira Parte]

G
Our missing pieces walk between us
              C            Am
When we were moving through the door
D                   C                G
You called 'em mine, I called 'em yours
 G
You make me get so angry
          C         Am
And I'd stay there on my own
D                       C      G
We both make peace but all alone

[Refrão]

D                                      C
Some call it talking blues (talking blues)
                     G
Some call it bitter truth
C                 Am         D  C
Some call it getting even in a song

 G
I can't read it, didn't mean it
              C         Am
As you would rage how I was wrong
D                C                    G
Life is too short, and you'd stay too long
 G
Let's be honest, we were strongest
       C           Am
Till I let you drag me down
D                       C    G
I was sorry then, I'm not now

[Ponte]

F                  Am
Some get a golden heart
D               G
Some get a riverside
     F                 Am               D  C
Some get a house that lets the years go by

[Terceira Parte]
            
G
That life is ending, you seem contented
          C            Am
While the graveside flowers die
D                 C             G
I call 'em yours, you call 'em mine
G
Nothing makes silence like experience
          C         Am
There's a message in my eyes
D                                    C     G
You'd better love yourself, 'cause I tried

[Refrão]

Some call it talking blues (talking blues)
                     G
Some call it bitter truth
C                 Am         D  C G
Some call it getting even in a song
