James Morrison – Broken Strings (Ukulele)

       Am
Let me hold you

        C
For the last time

         F
It's the last chance to feel again

        Am
But you broke me

      C             F      Dm
Now I can't feel anything

       Am
When I love you,

        C
It's so untrue

  F
I can't even convince myself

         Am
When I'm speaking,

         C                F    Dm
It's the voice of someone else

      F     G  Am
Oh it tears me up

  F           G          Em
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much

  F         G              Em             F
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Dm             Am
You can't play on broken strings

          C       G
You can't feel anything

          Dm                  Am
That your heart don't want to feel

        C                             G
I can't tell you something that ain't real

       F
Oh the truth hurts

    Am
And lies worse

C                 G
How can I give anymore

       Dm                Am       G
When I love you a little less than before

        Am     C
Oh what are we doing

       F
We are turning into dust

        Am           C        F    Dm
Playing house in the ruins of us

        Am               C
Running back through the fire

             F
When there's nothing left to save

          Am               C                        F    Dm
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late

      F     G  Am
Oh it tears me up

  F           G          Em
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much

  F         G              Em            F               C
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Dm             Am
You can't play on broken strings

          C       G
You can't feel anything

          Dm                  Am
That your heart don't want to feel

        C                             G
I can't tell you something that ain't real

       F
Oh the truth hurts

    Am
And lies worse

C                 G
How can I give anymore

       Dm                Am        G
When I love you a little less than before

          Am                  C
But we're running through the fire

             F
When there's nothing left to save

          Am                    C
It's like chasing the very last train

        F                        Dm
When we both know it's too late (too late)

          Dm            Am
You can't play on broken strings

          C       G
You can't feel anything

          Dm                 Am
That your heart don't want to feel

        C                             G
I can't tell you something that ain't real

       F
Well the truth hurts

    Am
And lies worse

C                 G
How can I give anymore

       Dm                Am       G
When I love you a little less than before

       Dm                Am         G
Oh when I love you a little less than before

       Am              C
Let me hold you for the last time

         F                   Dm          (Am)
It's the last chance to feel again
