Verse 1:
C F
I'm not about to tell you anything
C F
Nothing at least that bears repeating
C Em F
At the first sign the times were getting tough
Dm G
I could see you were already retreating
C F
Time passed so slowly you could hardly tell
C F
Looked like nobody was moving
C Em F
You didn't notice that the curtain fell
Dm G
You didn't watch what you were doing
Dm G
You never thought you might be losing
F Fsus2 F Fsus2
At least you could have broken my heart

Wish you would have broken my heart
Verse 2:
C F
I heard somebody say they're through with love
C F
Love casts a light that's too deceiving
C Em F
Oh any time you want to give it up
Dm G
Just let me know when you think you might be leaving
C F
Baby there will always be another one
C F
To come around when you've been bleeding
C Em F
Time will come when you won't easily find
Dm G
What you think you might be needing
Dm G
What you might be needing

Verse 3:
C F
I missed the autumn in my own hometown
C F
When was the changing of the season
C Em F
When something's broken you just don't lay it down
Dm G
But then you shouldn't have to give me a reason
C F
Something happens when you find it's over
C F
And you're left digging through all of this debris
C Em F
You get that feeling winter's finally coming
Dm G
You know that lonesome feeling
Dm G
Man you know that lonesome feeling

At least you could have broken my heart
