C#m               A                          G#               A
In a car on the driveway the conversation's colors paint themselves on canvas

C#m                A                            G#
White lies and motivation, we're standing oh so honestly

          A                       C#m
I'm surprised it didn't hurt your eyes

                A             G#                 A            C#m
I think that "I" is the only word in your vocabulary tonight

                    A                      G#
Those same brown eyes stare straight ahead

                A
And I shut my hand in your door

      F#m
And I looked around for a lifeline

     E              B/D#          A
Well I would rather have a broken arm

                       E/G#
Than have my arms around you

     E              B/D#          A
Well I would rather have a broken arm

                       E/G#
Than have my arms around you

C#m                 A                              G#
It took a minute or two to gather all my neurotic thoughts

          A                      C#m
Before I started to talk way too loud

                 A               G#                A
Loudly I thought to myself "God, how do I find myself here again and again"

C#m           A                     G#
My same black eyes stare straight ahead as

          A
I took my time with a cigarette

C#m              A                       G#                A              F#m
Fair enough I'm still in love with the false hope of us stabbed inside my chest

Let me tell you all about it

       E              B/D#             A
'Cause I would rather have a punctured lung

                       E/G#
Than waste my breath on you

     E              B/D#             A
Well I would rather have a punctured lung

                       E/G#
Than waste my breath on you

Although my dear

E              B/D#           A
I would rather have a broken heart

                    E/G#
Than give up hope on you

     E              B/D#           A
Well I would rather have a broken heart

                    E/G#
Than give up hope on you
