♫ Verse 1:
F                  B/G                   Fm
  I never used to be the one to lose control
          Fm/B                   C
Paranoid thoughts when I'm on my own
              F/F                       C
I don't wanna be the one to check your phone
    B
But lately I
F              B/G                   Fm
  I can only sleep when my bags are packed
            Fm/B              C
Only feel myself when I overreact
         F/F                     C
Why  safer when I'm feeling sad
      B              F              B/G               Fm           Fm/B
It's like I keep on hurting people just to stop them hurting me back
          C          F/F             C            B
I keep on sabotaging myself till I'm all that I have

♫ Chorus:
     C                                    B
Oh I wish there was something you could say
                           F
But I've seen how love is made
         B/G            Fm    Fm/B
All the beauty and the pain
           C                       B
I'm still wearing my bullet proof vest
                      F
On the inside of my chest
      B/G                Fm
Oh I hate that I'm this way
          Fm/B               C
But I've seen how love can change
        Cm                            F
That's why I keep on building fire escapes
 B/G  Fm  Fm/B  C
Mmm    Mmm

F                 B/G               Fm
    I keep on mis-reading your undertones
              Fm/B                C
Always second guessing when I'm alone
                  F/F                  C
Keep my feelings hidden till they overflow
  B                F
Almost like I've
                  B/G               Fm
Forgotten how it feels to be vulnerable
             Fm/B                C
Never let myself get too comfortable
           F/F             C   B
Never been good at letting go
                     C                               B
It's like I keep on hurting people just to stop them hurting me back
           Fm
I keep on sabotaging myself till I'm all that I have

♫ Chorus:
     C                                   B

All the beauty and the pain

On the inside of my chest

So  how Do I, how Do I, get out of this
