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"
