B                        F#
I fell in love with the chemicals
G#m                                E
I used to pray for a miracle, but now
B           F#       G#m E
I know that it's all over
B                      F#
We used to sit by the waterside
G#m                                   E
I'd kiss your cheek and say, "You're mine"
B    F#            G#m  E
But now I know it's over

C#m                      G#m                     F#
And all these little things, they start to slip away, hmm
C#m                      G#m                     F#
And all these little things, they start to fade away
And you said

 Chorus:
  B     F#             G#m E
"Hold me, I'm falling apart
B            F#                    G#m E
'Cause I'm scared and lost in the dark
B         F#      G#m             E
And this feeling surely cannot last"
              C#m              F#
So I took it away, I took it away
           B
Away from you
F# G#m  E  B  F# G#m  E
Mmm, woah, woah

I held your hand but you let it go
And I knew your heart had found a home
And now I know it's over
I flew it out into the sky
Was tryna run from this mountain I couldn't climb
'Cause I knew I'd fall over

And all these little things, they start to slip away, hmm
And all these little things, they start to fade away
And you said

Chorus:
"Hold me, I'm falling apart
'Cause I'm scared and lost in the dark
And this feeling surely cannot last"
So I took it away, I took it away

         E       B                 F#
We were making plans and breaking dreams
     G#m               E
When you were next to me
      B                   F#
It's 3AM in the back of a cab
          G#m            E
And I am begging on my knees
       B              F#
Don't go, won't you stay?
          G#m               E     B       F#
I can't stand to watch you walk away from me
And you said

Chorus:
"Hold me, I'm falling apart
'Cause I'm scared and lost in the dark
And this feeling surely cannot last"
So I took it away, I took it away
Away from you
Mmm, woah, woah, oh
