Am Em

Verse 1:
                F                       Am
Oh, here we go again, the voices in his head
                 Em              F
Call the rain to end our days of wild
                                       Am
The sickest army doll purchased at the mall
            Em              F
Rivulets descend my plastic smile
F                                  G
But you should've seen him when he first got me

Chorus:
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, ohh
F         C                      G       Em
 I'm queen of sand castles he destroys, ohh ohh
F
 'Cause it fit too right
C
 Puzzle pieces in the dead of night
G                                          Em
 Should've known it was a matter of time, ohh ohh
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, o-o-ohh

Am F


Verse 2:
Em
  Break my soul in two looking for you
            F
But you're right here
G
  If I can't relate to you anymore
                 Am        F
Then who am I related to?
Em
  And if this is the long haul
             F
How'd we get here so soon?
G
  Did I close my fist around something delicate?
    Am             F
Did I shatter you?


Pre-Chorus:
        Am                           F
And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island
                        C
Wondering where did my baby go?
                                        Em
The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
F                        G
Sorry for not making you my centerfold


Chorus:
         Am
Over and over
F
Lost again with no surprises
C/E
Disappointments close your eyes
    Em                 F
And it gets colder and colder
              G
When the sun goes down


Bridge 1:
Am                         F
  Were you waiting at our old spot

In the tree line
       C
By the gold clock

Did I leave you hanging every single day?
Em                         F
  Were you standing in the hallway
                       G
With a big cake, happy birthday

Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?
      Am
A universe away
            F
And when I got into the accident
    C
The sight that flashed before me was your face
Em                                     G                               Am
  But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name


Bridge 2:
   C
But just say when
     G
I'd play again
       Dm             F
He was my best friend down at the sandlot
  C                 G
I felt more when we played pretend
          Dm
Than with all the Kens
      F                    C
Cause he took me out of my box,
G                 Dm
Stole my tortured heart
F                     C
Left all these broken parts
G                  Dm
Told me I'm better off
        F
But I'm not
F
I'm not, I'm not, I'm not


Chorus:
            C                         G      Em
Cuase my boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, ohh
F         C                      G       Em
 I'm queen of sand castles he destroys, ohh ohh
F
 'Cause I knew too much
C
 There was danger in the heat of my touch
G                                     Em
 He saw forever so he smashed it up, ohh ohh
F      C                         G      Em
 My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, o-o-ohh

C G Dm F Em F


Outro:
  C                          G
He only breaks his favourite toys
Em   Am
ohh, o-o-ohh
