Verse 1:
  D MajorD           D7D7
I remember the evenin' you said you were leavin'
G+G              Bb majorBb
That's when I knew I had lost
  D MajorD
No room for forgiveness
  D7D7           G+G           Bb majorBb
Suitcase, frames, pictures, placed in the back of your car


Pre-Chorus:
 E minorEm
I won't tell my parents
   G+G
How I fucked up perfection
  B minorBm          A augmentedA

Gone and it's what I deserve

I don't know the protocol for fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart


Verse 2:
    D MajorD
When my friends hear the rumours
    D7D7
They'll tell me they knew that
G+G             Bb majorBb
You were bad news from the start
   D MajorD
Every bar they take me
  D7D7
And try to matchmake me
   G+G            Bb majorBb
With someone who doesn't come close, no

  E minorEm              G+G

  B minorBm             A augmentedA
And that's just one more broken heart (One more broken heart)
 E minorEm         G+G
A augmentedA future of stories, adventures, and journeys
D MajorD            A augmentedA
On fire and falling apart

Don't know the protocol for fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart
     G+G   D MajorD
Call your answerphone
         B minorBm   A augmentedA

Bridge:
     D MajorD           D7D7
When I'm all by myself and the drink doesn't help
     G+G
Take 'em down from the shelf
  Bb majorBb              D MajorD
And I'm reminded I keep fighting walls in my head
     D7D7            G+G           N.C.
With the miles of regret, 'cause I had every letter, but now


Chorus:
         G+G    D MajorD
I can't find the words to say
