[Intro] C G D Em x4 Em D G Am7 [Verse]
Em                        D              G   Am7 
  I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing

     Em                      D              G   Am7
Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in 

    Em               D           G   Am7
Cos I got time while she got freedom

    Em                        D            G   Am7
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even

Em                      D          G    Am7
  Her best days will be some of my worst 

Em                  D                G        Am7
  She finally met a man that's gonna put her first

      Em                   D          G    Am7
While I'm wide awake she's no trouble sleeping

    Em                        D            G      Am7
Cos when a heart breaks no it don't break even, even, no
[Chorus]
C         G                         D                   Em              C
  What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you, and

        G                          D                  Em             C
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're OK, yeah

I'm falling to pieces, yeah 

    G          D  Em  
I'm falling to pieces 
[Instrumental] Em D G Am7 [Verse]
     Em                    D           G Am7    
They say bad things happen for a reason 

    Em                  D                G  Am7 
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding

    Em                   D              G   Am7 
Cos she's moved on while I'm still grieving 

    Em                        D            G     Am7  
And when a heart breaks no it don't break even, even, no
[Chorus]
C         G                         D                   Em              C          
  What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you, and

        G                          D                  Em               C  
What am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up that you're OK, yeah

I'm falling to pieces, yeah

I'm falling to pieces, yeah

G                       Am7
You took your suitcase, I took the blame

        Em                       D              G 
Now I'm tryna make sense of what little remains, oh

Cos you left me with no love and no love to my name

Just prayin' to a god that I don't believe in 

    Em               D           G   Am7
Cos I got time while she got freedom

    Em                        D
