Pickin' Up The Pieces

Fitz & The Tantrums


Tom: F

Intro: F  Bb  F  Bb  F  Bb  Gm  C

                 F                   Bb
Felt like the stars fell down before us
        F              Bb
In a dream of you and me
         F                   Bb
then a storm came outta nowhere
           F            Bb
Turned my peace to misery.

            Dm              Am
Cuz I been runnin' now for days
Bb                        F
Pickin' up the pieces of love
     Dm                 Am
I'm not so sure it I'll go my way
Bb                       F
That's just the price of love.
     Dm             Am
I am oh so tired of loneliness
Bb                 F
But the world don't change
      Dm                     Am
and I can't have you, you've gone away
Bb                   C                    F
You were the reason, you are the reason I stay.

            F                    Bb
This fairy tale that you painted for me
          F                   Bb
You only see what you wanna see
           F                    Bb
But I'm inclined to tell you somethin'
           F                        Bb
You never show me how you cared for me.

            Dm              Am
Cuz I been runnin' now for days
Bb                        F
Pickin' up the pieces of love
     Dm                 Am
I'm not so sure it I'll go my way
Bb                       F
That's just the price of love.
     Dm             Am
I am oh so tired of loneliness
Bb                 F
But the world don't change
      Dm                     Am
and I can't have you, you've gone away
Bb                   C                    Am
You were the reason, you are the reason I stay.

Am Bb Am Bb
I stay
The reason I stay
