Chords

[Intro] G D Em Bm C C C C [Verse 1]
G              D              Em     
 I'll pick you up at the same time

              Bm                  C    C C C
In the same places, the same old drive

G            D              Em
 We'll just talk about our day

            Bm              C           C C C
To try to fill the awkward space tonight

G                D                Em
 We'll play the songs we used to love

          Bm             C         C C C
While we try to fall in love again

G           D                  Em  
 We don't know who's wrong or right

         Bm          C             C C C
We don't even care enough to fight
[Chorus]
                         G      D Em 
We're going through the motions

     Em       D          G      D Em G
'cos we can't fix what's broken

       D               Em 
And I know it's gonna hurt

     C               G
But darling I'll go first

     Em               B            C          G
'cos I won't keep on saying those three empty words

    Em              B             C          G
No I won't keep on saying those three empty words
G D Em Bm C C C C [Verse 2]
G             D           Em
 We're still talking everyday

            Bm               C        C C C
I'm running out of things to say to ya

G               D              Em
 What's really gonna break my heart

            Bm                C     C C C
To have to tell your little brother

G            D          Em
 It might be easier to stay

           C           C     C      C   C
But it'll never be the same, no ohh no

G        D                  Em
 And if something doesn't change

            Bm              C      C C C
Then we'll keep on sinking further
[Chorus]
Ohh...                         G      D Em 
We're going through the motions

     Em       D          G      D Em G
'cos we can't fix what's broken

       D               Em 
And I know it's gonna hurt

     C               G
But darling I'll go first

     Em               B            C          G
'cos I won't keep on saying those three empty words
[Bridge]
        G         B
Those three empty words

     Em            G
Will only make it worse

     C              G       D
I'm tired, I can't take anymore

        G         B
Those three empty words

     Em            G
Will only make it worse

     C              G       D
I'm tired, I can't take anymore
[Outro]
                         G      D Em 
We're going through the motions

     Em       D          G      D Em G
'cos we can't fix what's broken

       D               Em 
And I know it's gonna hurt

     C               G
But darling I'll go first

     Em               B            C          G
'cos I won't keep on saying those three empty words

          Em              B            C          G
We don't have to keep on saying those three empty words

    Em              B             C          G
No I won't keep on saying those three empty words
