Verse 1:
C
We all come in from the cold
   Bb
We come down from the wire
    F                                         C
An' everybody warms themselves to a different fire
    C                C
'N sometimes we get burned
      Bb
You'd think sometime we'd learn
   F                                             G
The one you love is the one that should take you higher
          F                      C       G       C
You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her

Verse 2:
 C
Just like children hiding in a closet
                  G
Can't tell what's going on outside
                 F
Sometimes, we're so far off the beaten track
       C
We get taken for a ride
      F                    G
By a parlor trick, or some words of wit
C                  F
A hidden hand up a sleeve

To think the one you love could hurt you, now
                    G
Is a little hard to believe
                                                      C
But everybody, darlin', sometimes bites the hand that feeds

Verse 3:
       C
When I look around
    G
An' everybody always brings me down
     F
Well, is it them or me?

Well, I just can't see
    C
But there ain't no peace to found
       F              G
But if someone really cared
             C                 F
Well, they'd take the time to spare
                                             G
A moment to try and understand another one's despair
 G                                                         C
Remember, in this game we call life, that no one said it's fair

Chorus:
F    C                F
Breakdown Let me hear it, now
                          C
Breakdown Let me hear it, now
      F         G
Yeah Breakdown Let me hear it, now

Verse 4:
     C
I've come to know the cold
 Bb
I think of it as home
          F
When there ain't enough of me to go around
                   C
I'd rather be left alone
         C
But if I call you out of habit
           Bb
I'm out of love and I gotta have it
F
Would you give it to me if I fit your needs?
                         C
Like when we both knew we had it
F                 G
Now, the damage's done
C                         F
And we're back out on the run
                                                     G
Funny how everything was roses when we held on to the guns
                                                       C
Just because you're winnin' don't mean you're the lucky one

Chorus:
F    C                F
Breakdown Let me hear it, now
                          C
Breakdown Let me hear it, now
      F         G
Yeah Breakdown Let me hear it, now
