Verse 1 

  Am           G            C 
Left all my bags at the gates 
             G                       F 
I held your hand as you tried to escape 
          Am            G               C 
You were weak from the nights that you spent 
               G                    F 
Fighting your way out of hospital beds 
        Am                     F                      C 
I tried so hard to carry you, fighting through every part of it 
            F              Am              G             C 
All of the pain, but I was weak from the nights that I spent 
         G                     F 
Laying awake in those hospital beds 

C G F G Oh, you were the chaos they couldn't control C While they took down your name G F I was pleading with them to go slow
Verse 2 Am G C I played you that song that you love G F I let you down, I'd forgotten the words Am G C I watched as you still tried to dance G F But it's hard when the wires pour out of your chest Am G Made cathedrals with old cotton sheets C F We held on to belief like its all we had left Am F Saw you smiled as you still tried to laugh C F But it's hard when the wires pour out of your chest
C G Am F Oh, you were the chaos they couldn't control C G Am F Oh, you were the chaos they couldn't control C While they took down your name G F I was pleading with them to go slow Am F Oh, and I still remember the sky falling down C F The way that the world seemed to not make a sound C G Am F Oh, you were the chaos they couldn't control
Bridge Am F I convinced myself that you were going home C G That there's a reason behind everything that we don't know Am F I convinced myself that you were going home C G That there's a reason behind everything that we don't know
C G Am F Oh, you were the chaos they couldn't control C While they took down your name G F I was pleading with them to go slow Am F Oh, and I still remember the sky falling down C F The way that the world seemed to not make a sound C G Am F Oh, you were the chaos they couldn't control C Couldn't control
