Tom: Em
Em G C D Em C
[Verse]
Em
From the fire in your words
Bm
To the dagger in your eye
C
I just have to lay my body down
D
Go and lay my body down
Em
I pretend to be asleep
Bm
But I know you hear me cry
C
I just have to lay my body down
G D
Go and lay my body down
[Pre-Chorus]
G D
But if I really want to change
Em
Then I must admit
D C
That I'm the one to blame
[Chorus]
Em
If I could break away
G
Cut the chord
C
For worse or better
D
If I could turn the page
At last and say
Em C
Goodbye forever
D Em
But on the other side
G
Of yesterday
C
Beyond the heartache
D
What if all I am
Without the pain
Em C
Is empty hearted
Em
I could break away
[Verse]
Em
Is it true what people say
Bm
That it's darkest before dawn?
C
I just have to lay my body down
D
Go and lay my body down
Em
Any hope we might have saved
Bm
Is too weak to let live on
C
I just have to lay my body down
G D
Go and lay my body down
[Pre-Chorus]
G D
And if I really want to change
Em D
Then tonight I'm gonna need
C
All of my strength
[Chorus]
Em
If I could break away
G
Cut the chord
C
For worse or better
D
If I could turn the page
At last and say
Em C
Goodbye forever
D Em
But on the other side
G
Of yesterday
C
Beyond the heartache
D
What if all I am
Without the pain
Em C
Is empty hearted
Bm
I could break away
[Bridge]
Bm C
Oh, anything is better than this
Bm
I know
C
Anything is better
[Chorus](one strum each)
D Em
If I could break away
G
Cut the chord
C
For worse or better
D
If I could turn the page
At last and say
Em C
Goodbye forever
(from C full)
C D Em
But on the other side
G
Of yesterday
C
Beyond the heartache
D
What if all I am
Without the pain
Em C
Is empty hearted
Em G C
I could break away
D Em C
If I could turn the page
C D Em
But on the other side
G
Of yesterday
C
Beyond the heartache
D
What if all I am
Without the pain
Em C
Is empty hearted
Em
I could break away
