Key: C

Intro:

C G/B Am G x2

Verse 1:
C      G/B    Am      G
  This is our breakup song
C            G/B      Am    G     F  C/E G/D C
  We've been writing it for oh so long
        G/B          Am      G
Another night stayed up 'til dawn
C    G/B      Am      G        F    C/E G/D C
  Tracing the anxious lines of your palm

Chorus:
Am
  I tried to write something nice
G                F                    C/E
  The words were forced, they just collide
                           G/D
No need for tears or to cry

Let's not pretend that we tried
Am
  I'll take the blame for this one
G                                  F C/E G/D C
  The credit all for a song with no name

Verse 2:
          G/B    Am      G
I wish it were a happier one
C           G/B     Am   G         F    C/E G/D  C
  But every note we sang seemed to come out wrong
    G/B    Am         G
Shattered against the wall
C     G/B     Am        G   F    C/E G/D C
  Leaving the one thing we agree on

Chorus:
Am
  I tried to write something nice
G                F                    C/E
  The words were forced, they just collide
                           G/D
No need for tears or to cry

Let's not pretend that we tried
Am
  I'll take the blame for this one
G                                 F C/E G/D
  The credit all for a song with no name

Interlude:
C G/B Am G |C G/B Am G  |F C/E G/D C/E |Am          |G           |
C/E        |G/D         |Am            |G           |F C/E G/D   |

Verse 3:
C      G/B    Am      G
  This is our breakup song
C            G/B      Am    G     F  C/E G/D C
  We've been writing it for oh so long
C    G/B       Am       G
  We said we'd still be friends
C          G/B     Am     G           F  C/E G/D
  But it's hard to make a start from an end

Chorus:
Am
  I tried to write something nice
G                F                    C/E
  The words were forced, they just collide
                           G/D
No need for tears or to cry

Let's not pretend that we tried
Am
  I'll take the blame for this one
G                                  F C/E G/D
  The credit all for a song with no name
