Verse 1:
     Gm                           Bb
Your heart is a bedroom with silk sheets and blue threads
        Dm                      C
And I'm scared I'll wake up all alone
          Gm                             Bb
No matter how far we run, there's no air left in our lungs
         Dm                    C
And your mind is turning into stone
           Gm                  Bb
I feel the water rising, your hand on my body
     Dm                    C
The fear of being stuck in love
     Gm
The days are getting longer
    Bb
The nights are getting harder
  Dm                       C
I hope I'm close to giving up

Chorus:
             Gm            Bb
I wanna give up on you and me
            Dm
On lust and love
         C
On faded dreams
          Gm
On wasted trust
        Bb
Feeling empty
             Dm              C
Feeling used by someone who loves me
             Gm Bb
I wanna give up
            Dm C
Let me give up


Verse 2:
           Gm                              Bb
I wish that you wouldn't say, that life is better this way
        Dm                           C
And the love just falls apart on its own
              Gm                               Bb
You know that I'd put you first, give you what you don't deserve
            Dm                      C
You wore my heart too far away from home
          Gm
I used to be your happy place
        Bb
But you drove us both insane
            Dm                        C
And now our minds are somewhere in between
    Gm
The days they last forever
    Bb
The nights keep us together
    Dm                    C
Why can't my heart let me be?


Chorus:
             Gm            Bb
I wanna give up on you and me
            Dm
On lust and love
         C
On faded dreams
           Gm
On wasted trust
         Bb
Feeling empty
             Dm                   C
Feeling used by someone who loves me
             Gm Bb
I wanna give up
            Dm C
Let me give up


Bridge:
Gm              Bb          Dm                  C                              Gm
If love is the answer, then why do I, why do we still ask so many questions, baby
                     Bb          Dm
And if I said it was over before it began

Would you give up?
   C                     Gm
Or start all over again?


Chorus:
             Gm            Bb

On lust and love
          C
On faded dreams
          Gm
On wasted trust
         Bb
Feeling empty
             Dm                        C
Feeling used by someone who said they loved me
             Gm Bb
I wanna give up
            Dm C
Let me give up
