Lyrics

Seems like (Dsus2)just yes ter day you pened were a part of me.

I used (Dsus2)to stand so tall; I (A5)used to be so (E)strong.

Your arms (Dsus2)a round me tight, ev ’ry thing, (E)it felt so right,

so un to break a ble, like (A5)noth ing could go (E)wrong.

Now (Amaj7)I can’t (A)breathe,

no, (F#m7)I can’t sleep.

I’m (Amaj7)bare ly (A)hang ing on.

Here I am once a gain.

I’m (A)torn in to piec es, can’t de ny it, can’t pre tend.

Just (A)thought you were the one.

Bro ken up deep in side, but (B5)you won’t get to see the tears I cry

be (A)hind these ha (E)zel eyes.

I told (Dsus2)you ev ’ry thing, o pened up and let you in.

You made (Dsus2)me feel all right for (A5)once to in my (E)life.

Now all (Dsus2)that’s left of me is what I (E)pre tend to be:

so un to geth er, but so (A5)bro ken up in (E)side, ’cause (Amaj7)I can’t (A)breathe,

no, (F#m7)I can’t sleep.

I’m (Amaj7)bare ly (A)hang ing on.

Here I am once a gain.

I’m (A)torn in to piec es, can’t de ny it, can’t pre tend.

Just (A)thought you were the one.

Bro ken up deep in side, but (B5)you won’t get to see the tears I cry

be (A)hind these ha (E)zel eyes.

(A)hind these ha (E)zel eyes.

(Bm)Swal low me then spit me (A5)out.

For (Bm)hat ing you I blame my (F#m)self.

(Bm)See ing you, it kills me now.

No, I don’t

cry on the out

side an y more,

an y more.

Here I am once a gain.

I’m (A)torn in to piec es, can’t de ny it, can’t pre tend.

Just (A)thought you were the one.

Bro ken up deep in side, but (B5)you won’t get to see the tears I cry

be (A)hind these ha (E)zel eyes.

Here I am once a gain.

I’m (A)torn in to piec es, can’t de ny it, can’t pre tend.

Just (A)thought you were the one.

Bro ken up deep in side, but (B5)you won’t get to see the tears I cry

be (A)hind these ha (E)zel eyes.

Here I am these ha (E)zel eyes.
