C D Em
Oh it tears me up
C D Bm
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
C D Bm C
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay
Am Em
You can't play on broken strings
G D
You can't feel anything
Am Em
That your heart don't want to feel
G D
I can't tell you something that ain't real
C
Oh the truth hurts
Em
And lies worse
G D
How can I give anymore
Am Em D
When I love you a little less than before
Em G
But we're running through the fire
C
When there's nothing left to save
Em G
It's like chasing the very last train
C Am
When we both know it's too late (too late)
Am Em
You can't play on broken strings
G D
You can't feel anything
Am Em
That your heart don't want to feel
G D
I can't tell you something that ain't real
C
Well the truth hurts
Em
And lies worse
G D
How can I give anymore
Am Em D
When I love you a little less than before
Am Em D
Oh when I love you a little less than before
Em G
Let me hold you for the last time
C Am
It's the last chance to feel again
