Verse 1:
              C    G              C
She’s just a girl born in stormy weather
     Am      Dm             G
Her heart a victim of the wreckage left behind
           C                  G             Am
But she’s somehow managed to pull it all together
  Am             Dm              G
Strong enough to dig a hole and bury it inside

Verse 2:
         C           G                  C
And the boys in her town seem to take pleasure
   Am             Dm             G
In mining little hard pieces to help them feel alive
         C            C            Am
And the cycle seems eternalized forever
         Am             Dm   G
Leaving ripples in its way, rolling through all times


Chorus:
               F               G                       C
Now she says "Lock the door behind when you leave the bed
      Am                        G                 C
I've learned the hard way it’s better to rest instead
    F               G                Dm
Of worry on these things I can’t control
            Am                    G
If there’s something that needs said
         F                 Am
Let me climb down in this hole
             F               G        C    Am
Because I’ve only have one heart to break
       F      G               C
So be gentle when you let me down"

Interlude:
| C G | C | Am Dm | G |
| C G | C | Am Dm | G |


Bridge:
           F             G               C
There’s no easy way to prove that I’m a keeper
    F         G                   C
Consistency lacks what a ring provides
         F             G               C
So we’ll go on holding on like this together
  F            G                 C           Am
Clearing any wreckage for those following behind


Chorus:
               F               G                       C
Now she says "Lock the door behind when you leave the bed
      Am                      G                 C
I've learn the hard way it’s better to rest instead
    F               G                 Dm
Of worry on these things I can’t control
            Am                  G
If there’s something that need said
         F                 Am
Let me climb down in this hole
            F               G        C    Am
'Cause I’ve only have one heart to break
       F      G               C
So be gentle when you let me down
       F      G                     C
So be gentle when you let me down"
