F Dm You trembled like you'd seen a ghost F Dm And I gave in I lacked the things you need the most You said, "Where have you been?" You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide I wonder why I remind you of the days you poured your heart into But you never tried Dm I've fallen from grace Took a blow to my face A# I've loved and I've lost C I've loved and I've lost Chorus: A# Dm F Explosions on the day you wake up Dm C Am Needing somebody and you've learned A# F It's okay to be afraid A# F Dm But it will never be the same F Dm It will never be the same You left my soul bleeding in the dark So you could be king, ah The rules you set are still untold to me And I've lost my faith in everything The nights you could cope Your intentions were gold But the mountains will shake I need to know I can still make Chorus: Explosions on the day you wake up Needing somebody and you've learned It's okay to be afraid But it will never be the same Dm And as the floods move in F And your body starts to sink Gm I was the last thing on your mind A# I know you better than you think Dm C Gm Cause it's simple darling, I gave you a warning A# Now everything you own is falling Dm from the sky in pieces F Gm So watch them fall with you, in slow motion A# I pray that you will find peace of mind Dm And I'll find you another time C Gm I'll love you, another time Chorus: Explosions on the day you wake up Needing somebody and you've learned It's okay to be afraid But it will never be the same It will never be the same You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Dm  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
