Promises And Empty Words(Chords)

	        

 

C                 Am 
Is there a reason why, 
F                               G 
That everyone I've known never let me down gently? 
C                        Am 
Between the loss and the lies. 
F                         G 
I'm always drowned out by silence, 
Drowned out by silence. 

Well every word that you lay 
was selfish you lass and it hurt me from the first call 
But now I know that I'm saved 
You can keep all your silence 
Keep all your silence 

F                         G        Am 
And no more waiting in a cold bed for you. 
F                         G           Am 
I'll never hear another lie fall out of your mouth. 
F                    G                   Am 
Your promises and empty words surround you. 
F 
Why should I be the one, 
To give this everything? 

If I could open my eyes, 
I'd see that everything you do never catches me falling. 
And with the times that we fight, 
There's a home filled with silence, 
Home filled with silence. 

And no more waiting in a cold bed for you. 
I'll never hear another lie fall out of your mouth. 
Your promises and empty words surround you. 
Why should I be the one, 
To give this everything? 

And no more waiting in a cold bed for you. 
I'll never hear another lie fall out of your mouth. 
Your promises and empty words surround you. 
Why should I be the one? 
Why should I be the one?
