Verse 
                  F#m         G#m              C#m 
If I cried like a baby would you change your mind? 
A     G#m          F#m              G#m         C#m 
If I told you I'm crazy would you come running back to me? 
A           G#m       F#m                  G#m           C#m    A G#m 
The harder I try to break away, the more I get lost in yesterday 
                  F#             G#m              C#m               F#m E 
The man that you know is just a shell, living without your life is hell 

Pre-Chorus 
B              E              F#m   E   B 
*I turn on the radio just to take the hurt away 
B                        E 
Another night and I'm missing you 
            F#m  G#m    B 
Girl, this killing me, well 
 
A                                     C#m 
**I don't wanna die tonight, but I think I might be going down 
           F#m             G#m             A                B 
'Cause the only one I ever cared about is nowhere to be found 
A                                     C#m 
I don't wanna close my eyes 'cause I might not see the light of day 
   F#m            G#m 
I'm almost out of air 
                      D          B                    C#m         F#m C#m G#m 
You're my reason for breathing, you're my reason for breathing 


Verse 
                    F#m     G#m                    C#m 
I don't wanna go clubbing, 'cause I got no one to dance with me 
       A     G#m       F#m        G#m                  C#m           A  G#m 
And I don't wanna go shopping, 'cause I got no one to spend my money on 
 F#m                   G#m 
Spending my time with one glass of wine 
C#m       A                       G#m 
Playing solitaire just to ease my mind 
F#m                     G#m 
Poured one for you, but I drank that too 
C#m                          F#m     E 
Anything to kill the pain of losing you 

Pre-Chorus 
B              E              F#m   E   B 
*I turn on the radio just to take the hurt away 
B                        E 
Another night and I'm missing you 
            F#m  G#m    B 
Girl, this killing me 

A                                     C#m 
**I don't wanna die tonight, but I think I might be going down 
           F#m             G#m             A                B 
'Cause the only one I ever cared about is nowhere to be found 
A                                     C#m                       B   E 
I don't wanna close my eyes 'cause I might not see the light of day 
    F#m            G#m 
I'm almost out of air 
                      D          B                    C#m         F#m C#m 
You're my reason for breathing, you're my reason for breathing

C#m F#m C#m F#m B 

Bridge 
         E                   G#m     B 
So I'm reaching out on this distant line 
       C#m               B                     A 
Hoping deep inside your heart's gonna find a reason 
     B       C#m    B C#m B 
To keep me breathing 
         E                        B 
But I'm lost in this pain and I don't have much time 
    C#m                         Bm 
I'm so tired of walking this same old line 
        A                     G#m 
So I'm taking my pride, gonna throw it aside 
  B                               A 
Please let me breathe girl, I'm sorry 

Pre-Chorus 
B              E              F#m   E   B 
*I turn on the radio just to take the hurt away 
B                        E 
Another night and I'm missing you 
            F#m  G#m    B 
Girl, this killing me 

A                                     C#m 
**I don't wanna die tonight, but I think I might be going down 
           F#m             G#m             A                B E 
'Cause the only one I ever cared about is nowhere to be found 
A                                     C#m                       B   E 
I don't wanna close my eyes 'cause I might not see the light of day 
    F#m            G#m 
I'm almost out of air 
                      D          B                    C#m         F#m C#m 
You're my reason for breathing, you're my reason for breathing
