B minorBm      D MajorD
I can't stand

Verse 2:
B minorBm        D MajorD
It's a fine line
                  GbmGbm
Between seeing that you need a new start
  D MajorD              E minorEm
and changing everything that you are
                A augmentedA
Just to find a way through the dark

Oh the ropes that hold you up
G+G
Start to frail and loosen up
  D MajorD
You cry
  A augmentedA
You cry

And every tear's a wasted drug

So keep the ropes to hold you up

Don't cry
        A augmentedA
Oh please don't cry
