F#m Em    D

[Verse 1]
               F#m      D
I been tryna catch my breath
       A             Em
But my lungs are cavin' in
                 F#m    D
Heart is beatin' out my chest
                A          Em
The thought of losin' you again

[Pre-Chorus]
   F#m          Em
So, sit down in front of me
D             A
 Listen close I'm coming clean
F#m                          Em                   D
Take a deep breath, there's something you should know

[Chorus]
A                               C#m D                      Em
  It's been too long since I've had something I would die for
             F#m         Em             D
And I'd give anything to make you wanna stay
A                      C#m D
   You can hear it every   time my broken heart beats
       Em    F#m     Em                       D
Screaming every word   that my mouth couldn't say
         F#m  Em                  D
So here I am,    standing with my heart nailed to the floor
         F#m         Em
I can't help the way I love you anymore

[Intro Riff]
A   C#m  D Em
F#m Em    D

[Verse 2]
                  F#m      D
I'm not about to hold back now
     A                Em
As I take your tremblin' hand
                   F#m      D
While the clock is runnin' down
                  A      Em
I need to make you understand

[Chorus]
A                               C#m D                      Em
  It's been too long since I've had something I would die for
             F#m         Em             D
And I'd give anything to make you wanna stay
A                      C#m D
   You can hear it every   time my broken heart beats
       Em    F#m     Em                       D
Screaming every word   that my mouth couldn't say
         F#m  Em                  D
So here I am,    standing with my heart nailed to the floor
         F#m         Em
I can't help the way I love you anymore

A                               C#m D                      Em

So here I am,    standing with my heart nailed to the floor

I can't help the way I love you anymore
