You got new jeans, the hoody’s not gone
                    E minorEm
i’m in a new dress that i’ve never worn
           C majorC
and I could have sworn

G+G
You didn’t bat an eye when I walked
                  E minorEm
in to the room where I first thought
          C majorC
you could be the one

A minorAm       C majorC            G+G          D MajorD
Have we been seeing the world through a piece of shattered glass?
A minorAm          C majorC       G+G       D MajorD
(Cause) something so beautiful can fall apart so fast

Just before goodbye, you had the chance to change your mind
G+G        G2     E minorEm          C majorC
Just before you lied saying, you gave this your best try
G+G         G2        E minorEm          C majorC
It’s not enough to try, you have to give your blood and tears and time
E minorEm              C majorC
You had one last chance to change your mind

G+G  G2 E minorEm C majorC
Just before goodbye

G+G
Curtains are drawn but we’re still dressed
                   E minorEm
the film plays on whilst under breath
        C majorC (same again)
I ask what is left now?

But you ignore, pretend that we’re fine
but we’re not together half of the time
how would I know the signs?

A minorAm       C majorC            G+G          D MajorD

A minorAm          C majorC       G+G       D MajorD
(Cause) something so beautiful can fall apart so fast
