D#m                    A#m    G#m
I saw you staring into nothing
In the silence something screaming
D#m                               A#m            G#m
I know you're trying but there's nothing left to say
D#m                   A#m   G#m
I feel better in the morning,
When all my troubles lose their meaning
D#m             A#m             G#m
Let go there's nothing you can change

   F#               C#/F      G#
I know it hurts to watch me bleeding
Can't tell you what I need and
 F#               C#/F    G#
We can't stop the river rising

Chorus:
                 D#m  A#m G#m
I've got a heavy heart
                    D#m A#m G#m
Too much for you to hold
                 D#m A#m G#m
We always come apart
                        D#m A#m G#m
And then I treat you so cold

We can pretend there's nothing wrong but
I was telling you it's not your fault
You wanna help but it's helpless every time
We're bittersweet in the sunlight
We can't believe every story we're sold
There's truth in the darkness we find

I know it hurts to watch me bleeding
Can't tell you what I'm needing
We can't stop the river rising

Chorus:
I got a heavy heart
Too much for you to hold
We always come apart
And I treat you so cold

      F#                   C#/F
The chemicals that we are breathing
G#
Lock you out and I keep looking it
F#           C#/F
I am running out of reasons
G#
Don't help myself by looking in
F#          C#/F           G#
I know I'm standing in the way
F#          C#/F           G#
I know I'm standing in the way

Chorus:
I got a heavy heart
Too much for you to hold
We always come apart
And I then I treat you so cold
I treat you so cold
