Intro :
F, Dm, Bb, C. (2x)
FDmBbC
I’m aching and you’re aching with these dull and empty hearts,
FDmBbC
We’re waiting for somebody to rip our ribs apart,
FDmBbC
And to seize with a steady hand our dull and empty hearts,
Our hearts.
F, Dm, Bb, CFDmBbC
I’m taking and you’re taking we’ve forgotten how to give,
FDmBbC
I’m faking it, you’re breaking it and its just the way it is,
FDmBbCDm
So we’ll leave here tonight but not before we give each other back our hearts.
DmAm
Cos our love,
BbF
Left us long ago,
DmAm
When we were both asleep,
Bbsus4Bb
Leaving blood stains in the snow,
Bb
Leaving blood stains in the snow.
F, Dm, Bb, C,
FDmBbC
I’m waiting and you’re waiting but this trains not gonna come,
FDmBbC
You’re voice has started grating and I hate what we’ve become,
FDmBbC
See there’s no future at this station we’re just feeding off the crumbs,
of our hearts.
F, Dm, Bb, C,
FDmBbC
I’m shaking and you’re shaking its just the way its got to be,
FDmBbC
In this love abandoned Autumn we’ll go raking up the leaves,
FDmBbC
The leaves that have fallen from these cold and dying trees in our hearts.
DmAm
Cos our love,
BbF
Left us long ago,
DmAm
When we were both asleep,
Bbsus4BbDm
Leaving blood stains in the snow.
Bb
Well I’m lonely like you’re lonely,
C
But its only cos its thrown me,
F
Like its thrown you I don’t own you,
Dm
And my darling you don’t own me,
Bb
And its kicking and its yelling,
C
And its bruising and its swelling,
F
But the writings on the wall,
DmG
And we both know what its been telling us to do,
DmG
Telling us to do.
FDmBbC
Well I’m crying and your crying in to silent salty lakes,
FDmBbC
The road has turned to ice and we haven’t any brakes,
FDm
So while the wall keeps getting closer,
BbCF
I fear its too late not to break our hearts.
