Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
Fm                   Ab
   I've been here before
Fm                    Ab
   But always hit the floor
      Db
I've spent a lifetime runnin'
       C
And I always get away
          Db
But with you I'm feeling something
      C
That makes me want to stay
Fm                   Ab
   I'm prepared for this
Fm                   Ab
   I never shoot to miss
       Db
But I feel like a storm is coming
         C
If I'm gonna make it through the day
             Db
Then there's no more use in runnin'
            C
This is something I gotta face

🎸

Pre-Chorus:
Fm   Eb Ab      Db
  If I risk it all

  Could you break my fall?

           Fm              Eb
How do I live? How do I breathe?

I wanna feel love run through my blood

Verse 2:
Fm                       Ab
   A million shards of glass
Fm                       Ab
   That haunt me from my past
         Db
As the stars begin to gather
         C
And the light begins to fade
         Db
When all hope begins to shatter
          C
Know that I won't be afraid


Pre-Chorus:
Fm    Eb Ab      Db
   If I risk it all
Fm       Eb   Ab       Db
   Could you break my fall?


Chorus:
          Fm               Eb
How do I live? How do I breathe?
                 Db             Eb
When you're not here I'm suffocating
              Fm                   Eb
I wanna feel love, run through my blood
            Db                      Cm
Tell me is this where I give it all up?

For you I have to risk it all
                            Fm   Ab
Cause the writing's on the wall
