D#                 Fm
I woke up in the place we started,
      Cm                          G#
Your clothes on the floor in that old apartment.
D#                     A#               G#
I never thought you’d leave without a trace.
D#                  Fm
I can’t shake this sinking feeling,
      Cm                             G#
And I know you’re not there and I’m barely breathing,
D#             A#/D            G#
Holding onto things I can’t replace.

                  Cm                A#
I’m looking for a way to change my mind,
            G#
Don’t walk away.

Chorus:
D#                               A#
Oh, tell me what we’re fighting for.
                             Cm
This turned into an all-out war.
                              G#                   D#
I’ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go.
                               A#
I’m trying to find a way back home,
                                Cm
If it takes until I’m skin and bones,
                              G#                    D# Fm Cm G#
I’ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go.

Our last words ringin' in my head
I wish we'd take back all the things we said
I'm tryna find a way to yesterday
Talkin' in circles and chasin' our tails
And wonderin' why we created this wasteland
I wish it wouldn't be so cavalier

I'm looking for a way to change my mind
Don't walk away

Chorus

              A#/D            D#
We’re fading out, we’re all alone.
               G#        Cm
It’s what you wanted, I suppose.
       A#/D              D#           G#
I can tell you feel the same when you say
                     Cm                  A#              G#
You’re looking for a way to change your mind, and walk away.

Oh
Tell me what we're fighting for
This turned into an all-out war
We'll find a way to fix these broken pieces

Chorus:
Oh
Tell me what we're fighting for
This turned into an all-out war
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces
And let go (Oh)
I'm tryna find a way back home
If it takes until I'm skin and bones
I'll find a way to fix these broken pieces
And let go

Oh-oh-oh
Let go
Let go
Fix these broken pieces and let go
