Capo I In the intro/verses: Em can also be played as Emadd9 (add the F# note) to sound more like the piano. [Intro] Em Gmaj7 Em Gmaj7 [Verse]
Em                  Gmaj7
  I've been here before

Em                    Gmaj7
  But always hit the floor

     Cmaj7    
I've spent a lifetime running

      Bsus4
And I always get away

          Cmaj7            
But with you I'm feeling something

     Bsus4              B
That makes me want to stay

Em                  Gmaj7
  I'm prepared for this

Em                  Gmaj7
  I never shoot to miss

      Cmaj7 
But I feel like a storm is coming

       Bsus4
If I'm gonna make it through the day

             Cmaj7
Then there's no more use in running

        Bsus4              B
This is something I gotta face
[Chorus]
Em   D/F#  G      Cmaj7
  If  I   risk it all

Em      D/F# G        B
  Could you  break my fall?

          Em            D
How do I live? How do I breathe?

                 C               D
When you're not here I'm suffocating

               Em                   D
I want to feel love, run through my blood

            C                       Bm
Tell me is this where I give it all up?

    Am            Am7     Bm B
For you I have to risk it a-all

                             (Em)
Cause the writing's on the wall
[Interlude] Em Gmaj7 [Verse]
Em                     Gmaj7
  A million shards of glass

Em                       Gmaj7
  That haunt me from my past

       Cmaj7
As the stars begin to gather

        Bsus4
And the light begins to fade

         Cmaj7
When all hope begins to shatter

          Bsus4        B
Know that I won't be afraid
[Chorus]
Em   D/F# G       Cmaj7
  If I    risk it all

Em      D/F# G        B
  Could you  break my fall?

         Em             D
How do I live? How do I breathe?

                C                D
When you're not here I'm suffocating

               Em                   D
I want to feel love, run through my blood

           C                        Bm
Tell me is this where I give it all up?

    Am            Am7     Bm B
For you I have to risk it a-all

                           Em   Gmaj7
Cause the writing's on the wa-aaall

                     Em   Gmaj7
The writing's on the wa-aaaall
[Instrumental] C Bsus4 C Bsus4 B [Chorus]
         Em             D
How do I live? How do I breathe?

                C                D
When you're not here I'm suffocating

               Em                   D
I want to feel love, run through my blood

           C                        D
Tell me is this where I give it all up?

         Em             D
How do I live? How do I breathe?

                C                D
When you're not here I'm suffocating

               Em                   D
I want to feel love, run through my blood

           C                        Bm
Tell me is this where I give it all up?

    Am            Am7     Bm B
For you I have to risk it a-all

                           Em
Cause the writing's on the wall
