       Bbm
Let me hold you
        C#
For the last time
         F#
It's the last chance to feel again
        Bbm
But you broke me
      D#m
Now I can't feel anything
       Bbm
When I love you,
        C#
It's so untrue
  F#
I can't even convince myself
         Bbm
When I'm speaking,
         D#m
It's the voice of someone else
Bbm
Oh it tears me up
  Fm
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  C#
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Bbm
You can't play on broken strings
          G#
You can't feel anything
          Bbm
That your heart don't want to feel
        G#
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F#
Oh the truth hurts
    Bbm
And lies worse
G#
How can I give anymore
       G#
When I love you a little less than before

        C#
Oh what are we doing
       F#
We are turning into dust
        D#m
Playing house in the ruins of us
        C#
Running back through the fire
             F#
When there's nothing left to save
          D#m
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late

      Bbm
Oh it tears me up
  Fm
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  C#
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Bbm
You can't play on broken strings
          G#
You can't feel anything
          Bbm
That your heart don't want to feel
        G#
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F#
Oh the truth hurts
    Bbm
And lies worse
G#
How can I give anymore
       G#
When I love you a little less than before

          C#
But we're running through the fire
             F#
When there's nothing left to save
          C#
It's like chasing the very last train
        D#m
When we both know it's too late (too late)

          Bbm
You can't play on broken strings
          G#
You can't feel anything
          Bbm
That your heart don't want to feel
        G#
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F#
Well the truth hurts
    Bbm
And lies worse
G#
How can I give anymore
       G#
When I love you a little less than before
       G#
Oh when I love you a little less than before

       C#
Let me hold you for the last time
         D#m
It's the last chance to feel again
