verse:
H E
Building dreams has always been my way
C#m C# E/F# - F#
Making time and living for the day
H E
Burning bridges never made me cry
C#m C# E/F# - F#
I could walk away with no goodbye
H E
Easy take or easy leave them all
C#m C# E/F# - F#
'til you scratch the writing on the wall
chorus:
E H-F#
It's on and off and on again
E H
Going on and then
E
Taking all I got again
H/D# C#/F F#
Bleeding me leaving me dry
E H-F#
You're hanging on for what you can
E H
Dragging out the pain
E
Taking all I give again
H/D# C#/F F#
Fakin it making me cry

verse:
One day someday I may slide away
Turn around and call it all a day
Even though I fooled myself for years
I can't escape this ringing in my ears
chorus:
It's on and off and on again
Going on and then
Taking all I got again
Bleeding me leaving me dry
You're hanging on for what you can
Dragging out the pain
Taking all I give again
Fakin it making me cry
