Verse:
E F#m
When writing your history,
G#m
I will always be a footnote
G#m
A distant memory
E F#m
A warning sign of mistakes made
G#m
The kind that you learn from
E F#m
This song is the best of me
G#m
Taking pills for solemn motive
E
A better side of me, an open mind
F#m
For mistakes made
G#m
The kind that you burn from
Chorus:
E B F#m
So take this small confession as my price to pay
F#m
I've never been the kind to let go
E B F#m
But before you up and walk away
F#m
I'm miserable without you, you know
E B F#m
This silver leaves me longing for gold
F#m
Second place has never carried me home
E
Second place has never carried me home
Chorus:
E B F#m
So take this small confession as my price to pay

I've never been the kind to let go
E B F#m
But before you up and walk away
F#m
I'm miserable without you, you know
E B F#m
This silver leaves me longing for gold

Second place has never carried me home

Second place has never carried me home (home, home, home, home)
