F                                 G
Feel like I've been reading you wrong
           F                     G
And we've tilted from where we started
    F
If someone's gonna let go
      G
It's me that's gotta let go
     F                                    G
I'm damned if I do, gonna be damned if I don't, oh
F      G  F     G
(A-a oh) (A-a oh)

Chorus:
F                 G
You say one more dance and I always give in
F
(I don't know what I'm doing)
 G
(I don't know what I'm doing)
     F              G
I'm falling in your arms trying to save everything
F
(I don't know what I'm doing)
G
(I don't know what I'm doing)
       F
Heartbreaker
G
It was over right from the start
       F
Heartbreaker
     G
And nothing's ever gonna be enough
       F
Heartbreaker
   G                           F   G
I wanted you to be but you're not

F      G  F     G
(A-a oh) (A-a oh)
F      G  F     G
(A-a oh) (A-a oh)

Been too long, too long holding on
To this blindfold, hoping and praying
We both know the truth is we're already losing
Damned if I do, gonna be damned if I don't, oh

Ayy-oh, ayy-oh, oh
Ayy-oh, ayy-oh, oh

Chorus:
You say one more dance and I always give in
(I don't know what I'm doing,
I don't know what I'm doing)
I'm falling in your arms trying to save everything
(I don't know what I'm doing,
I don't know what I'm doing)
Heartbreaker (It was over right from the start)
Heartbreaker (And nothing's ever gonna be enough)
Heartbreaker (I wanted you to be, but you're not)

Heartbreaker
Heartbreaker
Heartbreaker
(Illusions only last for so long)
Heartbreaker
(I wanted you to be, but you're not, but you're not)
Ah-ah, ah-ah
