[Intro] Am G D/F# G D/F# Em [Verse 1]
           C        Em/B     Am
There's a light but no one's home

         G       D/F#     Em
You can hear the silence drone

         Am   G     D/F#
A little artificial bliss

   G        D/F#    Em
A happiness counterfeit

            C      Em/B       Am
I've been chasing away those fears

      G       D/F#       Em
Just happy to let things slip

     Am     G       D/F#
Oh, when my angel appears

               G    D/F#  Em
She's wasting her time
[Chorus]
        Em                         G     C  A
I can't help it if you don't feel satisfied

         Em                          G      C  A
You only ever looked at me through broken eyes

          Em                            G          C   A
From the shortest of the nights to the longest sunrise
Oh, broken eyes [Instrumental] Am G D/F# G D/F# Em [Verse 2]
            C       Em/B    Am
I've been dreaming about my past

  G       D/F#   Em
Thinking about a friend

    Am          G      D/F#
And how we grew up too fast

   G         D/F#       Em
Enjoying the years slip past

                 C          Em/B  Am
You see you're present, but never here

             G       D/F#          Em
It's been a day, but feels like a year

     Am     G      D/F#
Oh, when my angel appears

              Em
She's wasting her time
[Chorus]
        Em                         G     C  A
I can't help it if you don't feel satisfied

         Em                          G      C  A/C#
You only ever looked at me through broken eyes

          Em                            G          C  A
From the shortest of the nights to the longest sunrise
Oh, broken eyes [Instrumental] Am G D/F# G D/F# Em Am G D/F# G D/F# Em C Em/B Am G D/F# [Interlude]
Em       Am  G
Ooh, na, na

D/F# G     D/F#  Em
Oh, wasting her time
[Chorus]
        Em                         G     C  A
I can't help it if you don't feel satisfied

         Em                         G     C  A
You only ever shed a tear through broken eyes

          Em                            G          C  A/C#
From the longest of the nights to the shortest sunrise

          Em                        G          C  A/C#
You only ever looked at me through sharpened eyes
[Bridge 1]
           Em G C  A
Oh, broken ey-y-yes

            Em   G         C         A
Paint that smile up on my face again
[Instrumental] Em G C A/C# [Bridge 2]
Em                       G
I was the last, was the last to know

C                       A/C#
I was the last, was the last to know

Em                       G
I was the last, was the last to know

C                        A
I was the last, was the last to know
[Outro] Em G C A/C# Em G C A Em
