G                                         Cm
Cross my heart, broke your promise, told me lies
Why did you
G                                         Cm
Watch me suffer, make me feel like I deserved to

                                     Gm
Everybody takes, everybody breaks somebody’s heart leaving some on their own

G
But this felt more like you ripping flesh from bone

D#
You made a mess out of me
Where do I begin?
                   F
You paid for your sins

G          
Like a reckoning

Gm
You never saw coming

D#                           F         
I’m the reaper outside your door

          G
You took everything made me feel less than nothing

      D#                 F
I’m getting what I came for

          Gm
Like the sound of all the stars crashing in the dark

    D#                           F
I said a prayer and buried your name

                     Eb                 F
And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire

G
The reckoning

G                               Cm
I gave you more than my heart could hope for
You misused it
G                            Cm
Scraped up every piece that fell to the floor
When you tore through it
G
Laying me to ruin
You knew what you were doing
Cm                      
Leaving me to skin and bone

G                 
But trusting you was no one’s fault but my own

Cm
You get what you give
So take your last breath
          F          C
Before I lay you to rest

G          
Like a reckoning

Gm
You never saw coming

D#                           F         
I’m the reaper outside your door

          G
You took everything made me feel less than nothing

      D#                 F
I’m getting what I came for

          Gm
Like the sound of all the stars crashing in the dark

     D#                          F
I said a prayer and buried your name

                     D#                 F
And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire 

D#
I should have known better than that

Bb                         D
I should have known all along

D#
I should have known better than that

F 
I should have known

                   G
But now I’m moving on

G          
Like a reckoning

Gm
You never saw coming

D#                           F         
I’m the reaper outside your door

          G
You took everything made me feel less than nothing

      D#                 F
I’m getting what I came for

          Gm
Like the sound of all the stars crashing in the dark

    D#                           F
I said a prayer and buried your name

                     D#                 F
And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire 

Gm
The reckoning
You never saw coming
F
You never saw me coming

Gm
The reckoning

                   D#        F
I’m the reaper outside your door

Gm
I am the reckoning

D#             C                   Gm
You’re every wrong you ever did to me

F              G
I am the reckoning
