F, Dm, Bb, C (2x)
F Dm Bb C
I’m aching and you’re aching with these dull and empty hearts,
F Dm Bb C
We’re waiting for somebody to rip our ribs apart,
F Dm Bb C
And to seize with a steady hand our dull and empty hearts,
Our hearts.
F, Dm, Bb, C
F Dm Bb C
I’m taking and you’re taking we’ve forgotten how to give,
F Dm Bb C
I’m faking it, you’re breaking it and its just the way it is,
F Dm Bb C Dm
So we’ll leave here tonight but not before we give each other back our hearts.
Dm Am
Cos our love,
Bb F
Left us long ago,
Dm Am
When we were both asleep,
Bbsus4 Bb
Leaving blood stains in the snow,
Bb
Leaving blood stains in the snow.
F, Dm, Bb, C,
F Dm Bb C
I’m waiting and you’re waiting but this trains not gonna come,
F Dm Bb C
You’re voice has started grating and I hate what we’ve become,
F Dm Bb C
See there’s no future at this station we’re just feeding off the crumbs,
of our hearts.
F, Dm, Bb, C,
F Dm Bb C
I’m shaking and you’re shaking its just the way its got to be,
F Dm Bb C
In this love abandoned Autumn we’ll go raking up the leaves,
F Dm Bb C
The leaves that have fallen from these cold and dying trees in our hearts.
Dm Am
Cos our love,
Bb F
Left us long ago,
Dm Am
When we were both asleep,
Bbsus4 Bb Dm
Leaving blood stains in the snow.
Bb
Well I’m lonely like you’re lonely,
C
But its only cos its thrown me,
F
Like its thrown you I don’t own you,
Dm
And my darling you don’t own me,
Bb
And its kicking and its yelling,
C
And its bruising and its swelling,
F
But the writings on the wall,
Dm G
And we both know what its been telling us to do,
Dm G
Telling us to do.
F Dm Bb C
Well I’m crying and your crying in to silent salty lakes,
F Dm Bb C
The road has turned to ice and we haven’t any brakes,
F Dm
So while the wall keeps getting closer,
Bb C F
I fear its too late not to break our hearts.
