Intro: B | Ebm | G#m | E

              B
Guess we knew this was coming on,
       Ebm                      G#m    E
’Cause you’re already gone in my head.
        B
You can tell me that I’m wrong,
Ebm                         G#m      E
That you’re staying with me instead.

        B
   When winter’s come along
       Ebm/Bb
   And summer’s dead and gone,
            G#m                   E    Eadd₉
   Is there anything left here to say?

         B
   I can put my arms around,
       Ebm/Bb
   The emptiness I found
       G#m                    E     Eadd₉
   And find a way to make you stay.

Chorus:
                      B
     But I’m standing still,
                  F#/Bb
     I’m standing still
                     G#m  E
     As you leave me now.

         Eadd₉    B
     I’m standing still,
                  F#/Bb
     I’m standing still
                       G#m
     As you’re walking out.
           Eadd₉             B
     Yeah, I’m just standing still.

Now before I felt so strong,
And pieces of me break so easy.
What I thought would be the end
Is just the feeling that you freed me?

   Girl, this ain’t giving up,
   It’s knowing where to stop,
   Knowing when a thing is over.

   I know my life is blind,
   See for the first time
   This ain’t gonna bring us closer.

Chorus:
                         B
     ’Cause I’m standing still,
                  F#/Bb
     I’m standing still
                     G#m
     As you leave me now.
                 E
     Yeah, yeah, yeah…

         Eadd₉    B
     I’m standing still,
                  F#/Bb
     I’m standing still
                       G#m  E
     As you’re walking out.

         Eadd₉    B      F#/Bb G#m
     I’m standing still…
         E                 B      F#/Bb
     And I’m just standing still…
                     G#m
     As you leave me now.
         Eadd₉             B
     And I’m just standing still…

   When winter’s come along
   And summer’s dead and gone,
   Is there anything left here to say?

   I can put my arms around,
   The emptiness I found,
   And find a way to make you stay.

Chorus:
         Eadd₉    B
     I’m standing still,
                  F#/Bb
     I’m standing still
                     G#m
     As you leave me now.
           E
     Yeah, yeah…

         Eadd₉    B
     I’m standing still,
                  F#/Bb
     I’m standing still
                       G#m
     As you’re walking out.
     Eadd₉             B
     I’m just standing still…

  Ebm             G#m
     I’m standing still,
           E                 B      F#
     Yeah, I’m just standing still,
                   E      B
     Just standing still…
