Verse 1:
Ab Cm/G
The door was unlocked, the TV was on

The foundation's here, but the magic is gone
Dbm/Fb Ab/Eb Bb/D Bbm/Db
I let you in, then you let it all decay
Ab Cm/G
The lights are burnt down, the flowers are dead

Somehow I'm still 'supposed to sleep in this bed
Dbm/Fb Ab/Eb Bb/D Bbm/Db
Gave you a key, but I couldn't make you stay
Pre-Chorus:
Bbm Dbm
But I'm still glad you came to visit
Chorus:
Ab Cm/G Cdim/Gb Db/F
Love is like a house of fragile things
Dbm/Fb Ab/Eb Bb/D Bbm/Db
Where hearts can be broken as easy as antiques
Ab Cm/G Cdim/Gb Db/F
And now there's glass all shattered at my feet

What we built together, you left in smithereens

I'll paint all the walls, a fresh coat of blue

But I'll never cover the memory of you

Watchin' me sleep, dancin' on your feet always

I'll replace the floors, whatever I do

The ghost of you will always live in these rooms

You get to leave, I don't have that luxury

Bbm Dbm
But I'm still glad you came to visit

And now there's glass all shattered at my feet

What we built together, you left in smithereens
