(Chorus) 
A5               E5                   B5 
I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut 
            D5                     A5 
My weakness is that I care too much 
                E5                    B5 
My scars remind me that the past is real 
                D5     E5      F#5 
I tear my heart open just to feel 
 
(verse 1) 
                      C#5 
Drunk and I'm feeling down 
                      D5 
And I just wanna be alone 
                             E5 
I'm pissed cause you came around 
                      F#5 
Why don't you just go home 
                            C#5 
Cause you channel all your pain 
                          D5 
And I can't help to fix myself 
                 E5 
Your making me insane 
 
All I can say is 
 
(Chorus) 
A5               E5                   B5 
I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut 
            D5                     A5 
My weakness is that I care too much 
                E5                    B5 
My scars remind me that the past is real 
                D5     E5      F#5 
I tear my heart open just to feel 
 
(verse 2) 
                     C#5 
I tried to help you once 
                D5 
Against my own advise 
                 E5 
I saw you going down 
                F#5 
But you never realized 
                          C#5 
That your drowning in the water 
                  D5 
I offered you my hand 
                    E5 
Compassions in my nature 
                      A5 
Tonight is our last stand 
 
(Chorus) 
A5               E5                   B5 
I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut 
            D5                     A5 
My weakness is that I care too much 
                E5                    B5 
My scars remind me that the past is real 
                D5     E5      D5 
I tear my heart open just to feel 
 
(bridge) 
( D5 ) 
I can't help you fix yourself 
E5 
But at least I can say I tried 
A5      A5                  F#5          E5 
   I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life 
D5                                E5 
   I can't help you fix yourself 
                          F#5 
But at least I can say I tried 
                            A5 
I'm sorry but I gotta move on with my own life 
 
(Chorus) 
A5               E5                   B5 
I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut 
            D5                     A5 
My weakness is that I care too much 
                E5                    D5 
My scars remind me that the past is real 
                E5 
I tear my heart open just to feel 
 
(Chorus) 
A5               E5                   B5 
I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut 
            D5                     A5 
My weakness is that I care too much 
                E5                    B5 
My scars remind me that the past is real 
                D5     E5       A5 
I tear my heart open just to feel
