Standard tuning, capo on 4th


C             G              Em            D
You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
C             G           Em             D
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
C            G             Em                D
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied out by a single word
C          G         Em    D
There is a hollow in me now

C                  G
So I put my faith in something unknown
Em              D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C                      G
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Em             D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C
And it's hard to learn
G
And it's hard to love
Em                   D
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
C               G
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
Em              D
You're giving me such sweet nothing

C   G   Em   D

C       G        Em          D
It isn't easy for me to let it go
  C
Cause
         G       Em         D
I've swallowed every single word
 C
And
        G            Em  
Every whisper, every sigh
       D                    C
Eats away at this heart of mine
                 G           Em      D
And there is a hollow in me now

C                  G
So I put my faith in something unknown
Em              D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C                      G
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Em             D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C
And it's hard to learn
G
And it's hard to love
Em                   D
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
C               G
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
Em              D
You're giving me such sweet nothing

C   G   Em   D

C               G 
And it's not enough
     Em             D
To tell me that you care
C              G        Em           D
When, we both know the words are empty air
               C   G   Em   D  
You give me nothi-------------ng
C   G   Em   D
Nothi---------ng
