Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
It  is so easy to see
Dysfunction  between you and me
We  must free up these tired souls
Before  the sadness gets us both
I  tried and tried to let you know
I  love you but I'm letting go
It  may not last but I don't know
Just  don't know
If  you don't know, then you can't care
And  I show up, but you're not there
But  I'm waiting, and you want to
Still  afraid that I will desert you
Everyday
 With every word whispered we get more far  away
 The distance between us makes it so  hard to stay
 But nothing last forever, but be honest  babe
 It hurts but it may be the only way
 (Same as 1st Verse)
 A bed that's warm with memories
 Can heal us temporarily
 The misbehaving all he makes
 The ditch between us so damn deep
 Built a wall around my heart
 Never let it fall apart
 Strangely I wish secretly
 It won't fall down while I'm asleep
 If you don't know, then you can't care
 And I show up, but you're not there
 But I'm waiting, and you want to
 Still afraid that I will desert you, babe
 Everyday
 With every word whispered we get more far away
 The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
 But nothing last forever, but be honest babe
 It hurts but it may be the only way
But  we have not hit the ground
Doesn't  mean we're not still falling,  oh
I  want so bad to pick you up
But  you're still too reluctant to accept  my help
 What a shame  I hope you find somewhere to place  the blame
 But until then the fact remains
