Broken Strings

	  		Capo on 1st. 

----------------------------------------------- 

       Am 
Let me hold you 
        C 
For the last time 
         F 
It's the last chance to feel again 
        Am 
But you broke me 
      C             F      Dm 
Now I can't feel anything 
       Am 
When I love you, 
        C 
It's so untrue 
  F 
I can't even convince myself 
         Am 
When I'm speaking, 
         C                F    Dm 
It's the voice of someone else 

      F     G  Am 
Oh it tears me up 
  F           G          Em 
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much 
  F         G              Em             F              C 
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay 

          Dm             Am 
You can't play on broken strings 
          C       G  
You can't feel anything  
          Dm                  Am 
That your heart don't want to feel 
        C                             G 
I can't tell you something that ain't real 
       F      
Oh the truth hurts 
    Am   
And lies worse 
C                 G 
How can I give anymore 
       Dm                Am       G 
When I love you a little less than before 

        Am     C 
Oh what are we doing 
       F 
We are turning into dust 
        Am           C        F    Dm 
Playing house in the ruins of us 
        Am               C 
Running back through the fire 
             F 
When there's nothing left to save 
          Am               C                        F    Dm 
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late 

      F     G  Am 
Oh it tears me up 
  F           G          Em 
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much 
  F         G              Em            F               C 
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay 

          Dm             Am 
You can't play on broken strings 
          C       G 
You can't feel anything  
          Dm                  Am 
That your heart don't want to feel 
        C                             G 
I can't tell you something that ain't real 
       F 
Oh the truth hurts 
    Am   
And lies worse 
C                 G 
How can I give anymore 
       Dm                Am        G 
When I love you a little less than before 

          Am                  C 
But we're running through the fire 
             F 
When there's nothing left to save 
          Am                    C 
It's like chasing the very last train 
        F                        Dm 
When we both know it's too late (too late) 

          Dm            Am 
You can't play on broken strings 
          C       G 
You can't feel anything  
          Dm                 Am 
That your heart don't want to feel 
        C                             G 
I can't tell you something that ain't real 
       F     
Well the truth hurts 
    Am   
And lies worse 
C                 G 
How can I give anymore 
       Dm                Am       G 
When I love you a little less than before 
       Dm                Am         G 
Oh when I love you a little less than before 

       Am              C 
Let me hold you for the last time 
         F                   Dm 
It's the last chance to feel again
