lyrics

Chorus-
Am G/B C Em F G Am G/B
Am G Em G F G Am G/B F

If this love is a suicide
i'll swallow one pill at a time
and i'll wait on the other side
until you can make it through
take your blade to these open arms
and give me all of your wounds
it won't take all the pain away
but now i can bleed for you

VS:
Am7 C+9 G D/F# Esus2+4(?)Resolves on E7
all the lights are dying down
all the stars are burning out
this broken breath in rapid fire
are finally subsiding (now)

we've done this all before
and i'd do it all again
i'll walk a thousand miles
until this world comes to an end

B section:
A C F Em G
i don't have the answer
to why your walls keep crumbling
it seems like this happens all the time
your world is always caving in

it's all pins and needles
all your euphoria has gone
but you can keep your hands in mine
where they've been all along
Am7
…i'll keep holding on

CH

VS:
hands fold over fists and fall
like paper covers stone
they smash the scissors into dust
too many times have cut these bones

you're breathing in and out
raindrops shatter on your head
if i'm half the storm that haunts you
then i'm half a man that's dead

E7 Hold

break vamp:
Bbmaj7 Dm7 x2

Bridge:
Bb Dm C+9 C#dim Dm7
resolve on G

I'll race your speeding bullet
then i'll take the fall
i'll bend over backwards for you
break to save us all
just breathe and open up your eyes

CHx2
