🎸 Verse 2:
C
How we got here? I'd say quietly
Dm
As quietly as those same trees grew to shade
Em
One day at a time and further away
Am
Further and further, further away
🎸 Chorus:
G C F
Now my hands are two empty cups
Am
Maybe I was asking for a little too much
G
To keep the newness from wearing off
F
For every start, thеre's gonna be a stop
🎸 Verse 3:
C
You're lеaving now through the hole of an argument
Dm
I guess for a while you've been looking for the exit
Em
You slammed the door so hard
I still hear rattling spoons
C
The sound of silence rings in every room
🎸 Verse 4:
C
The last talk left me a makeup rainbow of tears
Dm
Turned everything blurry
I can't see a thing from here
Em
I tried so hard to make myself clear
Am
Life can't help but interfere
🎸 Bridge:
G C F
You used to lean in like I was whispering
Am
Any excuse to get near again
G
I still miss the way you lean in
C
What happened between now and then
🎸 Chorus:
C F
And my hands are two empty cups
Am
Maybe I was asking for a little too much
G
To keep the newness from wearing off
F
For every start, there's gonna be a stop
🎸 Interlude:
C Em F Am G
🎸 Verse 5:
C
I was always a sucker for your wrist at my cheek
Dm
There was a time when I was everything

And I tried so hard to make myself clear
Am
Somehow life interfered
Out-🎸 Chorus:
C F
Now my hands are two empty cups
Am
Maybe I was asking for a little too much
G
To keep the newness from wearing off
C
For every start, there's gonna be a stop
F
My hands are two empty cups
Am
Maybe I was asking for a little too much

To keep the newness from wearing off
F C
For every start, there's gonna be a stop
