Intro: D F#m G Bm A
verse 1
D F#m
The more I see, the less I understand
G Bm A
The harder I work, the poorer I feel
D F#m
The deeper the faith, the more I'm broken
G A
The more I hear, the less it all seems real
Then you come around
Bm
With your soft young skin
G A
With no idea what you're about to step in
G A
And in these times you remind me
Bm
Of the man I used to be
G A D
If I had a heart, you'd be breaking it now
verse 2
F#m
I've seen hope rise, come crashing down again
G Bm A
Seen the bashing of brains, seen the city unwind
D F#m
Seen the overthrow, of dictators and tyrants
G A
Seen the gory mess, they always leave behind
Then you stop by
Bm
Talkin 'bout yer dreams
G A
You see a world not yet ripped apart at the seams
G A
And in these times you remind me
Bm
Of the man I used to be
G A D D7
If I had a heart, you'd be breaking it now
Bridge
G A
You'll see truth, turned into lies
Bm D
Light turned to dark, hearts broke in two
G A
Just one thing, before I die
Em G G7
I want to make one lie come true

verse 3
D F#m
The more I read, the dumber I think I am
G Bm A
The more money I make, the more they say I'll need
D F#m
The farther I drive, the closer I am to where I started
G A
The more I'm told, the less I tend to believe
Then you come around
Bm
With your soft young skin
G A
With no idea what you're about to step in
G A
And in these times you remind me
Bm
Of the man I used to be
G A D D7
If I had a heart, you'd be breaking it now
G D
If I still had a heart, you'd be breaking it now
