Verse 1
[Bbm]
Let me hold you
[Db]
For the last time
[Gb]
It's the last chance to feel again
[Bbm]
But you broke me
[Db] [Gb] [Ebm]
Now I can't feel anything
[Bbm]
When I love you,
[Db]
It's so untrue
[Gb]
I can't even convince myself
[Bbm]
When I'm speaking,
[Db] [Gb] [Ebm]
It's the voice of someone else
Pre-Chorus
[Gb] [Ab] [Bbm]
Oh it tears me up
[Gb] [Ab] [Fm]
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
[Gb] [Ab] [Fm] [Gb] [Db]
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay
Chorus
[Ebm] [Bbm]
You can't play on broken strings
[Db] [Ab]
You can't feel anything
[Ebm] [Bbm]
That your heart don't want to feel
[Db] [Ab]
I can't tell you something that ain't real
[Gb]
Oh the truth hurts
[Bbm]
And lies worse
[Db] [Ab]
How can I give anymore
[Ebm] [Bbm] [Ab]
When I love you a little less than before
Verse 2
[Bbm] [Db]
Oh what are we doing
[Gb]
We are turning into dust
[Bbm] [Db] [Gb] [Ebm]
Playing house in the ruins of us
[Bbm] [Db]
Running back through the fire
[Gb]
When there's nothing left to save
[Bbm] [Db] [Gb] [Ebm]
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late
Pre-Chorus
[Gb] [Ab] [Bbm]
Oh it tears me up
[Gb] [Ab] [Fm]
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
[Gb] [Ab] [Fm] [Gb] [Db]
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay
Chorus
[Ebm] [Bbm]
You can't play on broken strings
[Db] [Ab]
You can't feel anything
[Ebm] [Bbm]
That your heart don't want to feel
[Db] [Ab]
I can't tell you something that ain't real
[Gb]
Oh the truth hurts
[Bbm]
And lies worse
[Db] [Ab]
How can I give anymore
[Ebm] [Bbm] [Ab]
When I love you a little less than before
Verse 3
[Bbm] [Db]
But we're running through the fire
[Gb]
When there's nothing left to save
[Bbm] [Db]
It's like chasing the very last train
[Gb] [Ebm]
When we both know it's too late (too late)
Chorus
[Ebm] [Bbm]
You can't play on broken strings
[Db] [Ab]
You can't feel anything
[Ebm] [Bbm]
That your heart don't want to feel
[Db] [Ab]
I can't tell you something that ain't real
[Gb]
Well the truth hurts
[Bbm]
And lies worse
[Db] [Ab]
How can I give anymore
[Ebm] [Bbm] [Ab]
When I love you a little less than before
[Ebm] [Bbm] [Ab]
Oh when I love you a little less than before
Outro
[Bbm] [Db]
Let me hold you for the last time
[Gb] [Ebm]
It's the last chance to feel again
