[Intro] Em G C D [Verse 1]

Em
  Well, this hurts me more than I can stand to say

In just one sitting,

G                            D
  You left the room so I could pray

Em
  So I'll pace the halls to see

If I could find a hole in something

G                      D
  Or maybe places to escape

[Refrain] Oh, but everybody

C          D      Em
Knows this is the part

Of breaking down

   C   D     Em
In anybody's arms

I'm reaching down and

C       D          Em
Hoping this one's ours

    D
God, please let this stay

[Chorus 1]

          Em          G
And then I fell into pieces 

     C            D
And she fell into me

          Em
Saying, "Play me a song. 

G
It's been too long since I've heard 

C            D    C   D   C
  you sing."

[Verse 2]

Em
  You got here just in time

To let me know I was worth saving

G
  It's nothing more than 

         D
For the heart

Em
  Too proud to breathe

But I'm too scared to say the things worth saying

G
  Who knew this trip 

               D
Would be this hard?

[Refrain 2] As I'm looking to the

 C      D          Em
Sky to count the stars

I wonder if you

C         D        Em
See them where you are

I'm down on both my

C          D      Em               D
Knees and pray tomorrow brings no pain

[Chorus 1]

          Em          G
And then I fell into pieces 

     C            D
And she fell into me

          Em
Saying, "Play me a song. 

G
It's been too long since I've heard 

C            D 
  You sing."

[Chorus 2]

          Em              G
And yeah, we all fall to pieces

         C               D
But at least you fell to me

               Em
But this is a wrong night

    G                           C   D
So tell me goodnight and let it go

[Bridge]

C
I stayed here 

    D
And you just pray

    Em
My head would clear

And I'd stay safe

C
The pieces left 

     D
The love had changed 

     Em
Just saved everything

[Refrain 1] Oh, but everybody

C          D      Em
Knows this is the part

Of breaking down

   C   D     Em
In anybody's arms

I'm reaching down and

C       D          Em
Hoping this one's ours

    D
God, please let this stay

[Chorus 3]

            Em
And then I fell into 

G
Pieces and she fell into me

         Em
Saying, "Play me a song. 

Em                             C             D
It's been too long since I've heard you sing."

[Chorus 1]

          Em          G
And then I fell into pieces 

     C            D
And she fell into me

          Em
Saying, "Play me a song. 

G
It's been too long since I've heard 

C            D 
  You sing."

[Chorus 2]

          Em              G
And yeah, we all fall to pieces

         C               D
But at least you fell to me

               Em
But this is a wrong night

    G                           C   D
So tell me goodnight and let it go
