Bm
Let me hold you
        D
For the last time
         G
It's the last chance to feel again
        Bm
But you broke me
      D            G     Em
Now I can't feel anything
       Bm
When I love you,
        D
It's so untrue
  G
I can't even convince myself
         Bm
When I'm speaking,
         D               G   Em
It's the voice of someone else

      G    A Bm
Oh it tears me up
  G          A         F#m
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  G        A            F#m            G              D
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Em            Bm
You can't play on broken strings
          D      A
You can't feel anything 
          Em                 Bm
That your heart don't want to feel
        D                            A
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       G    
Oh the truth hurts
    Bm  
And lies worse
D                A
How can I give anymore
       Em               Bm       A
When I love you a little less than before

        Bm    D
Oh what are we doing
       G
We are turning into dust
        Bm          D       G   Em
Playing house in the ruins of us
        Bm              D
Running back through the fire
             G
When there's nothing left to save
          Bm              D                       G   Em
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late

      G    A Bm
Oh it tears me up
  G          A         F#m
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  G        A             F#m            G              D
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay
          Em            Bm
You can't play on broken strings
          D      A
You can't feel anything 
          Em                 Bm
That your heart don't want to feel
        D                            A
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       G    
Oh the truth hurts
    Bm  
And lies worse
D                A
How can I give anymore
       Em               Bm       A
When I love you a little less than before

          Bm                 D
But we're running through the fire
             G
When there's nothing left to save
          Bm                   D
It's like chasing the very last train
        G                       Em
When we both know it's too late (too late)

          Em            Bm
You can't play on broken strings
          D      A
You can't feel anything 
          Em                 Bm
That your heart don't want to feel
        D                            A
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       G    
Well the truth hurts
    Bm 
And lies worse
D                A
How can I give anymore
       Em               Bm       A
When I love you a little less than before
       Em               Bm       A
Oh when I love you a little less than before

       Bm              D
Let me hold you for the last time
         G                   Em
It's the last chance to feel again
