D                  Bm            F#m  E
I don't know about you, but I'm tired
D             Bm                F#m E
Running after you, putting out fires
D                                 Bm
You're waiting for something that won't come for nothing
     F#m
Maybe it's not me
             E
Maybe it's not me
        D                               Bm
In the heat of the moment, when you're wide-eyed and broken
        F#m
Are you thinking of me?
                 E
Are you thinking of me?

Chorus:
              D
So tell me a lie
                 F#m
Tell me you were high
              E
Let me know why
   Bm
Do anything it takes
                  D
Tell me it was a mistake
                       F#m
Tell me how your heart breaks
                     E
It meant nothing anyway
                          Bm
Say anything to make me stay
             D     F#m E Bm
But you say nothing
             D     F#m E Bm
But you say nothing

You look so confused
Don't you try
To twist the truth and get inside my
Mind yourself, we're on our last strike
That thin line
You're so under the pressure
With nothing else left
Are you thinking of me?
Are you thinking of me?

Chorus

Tell me, are you in there?
Give me a sign
Nothing's gonna make this right this time
I know that you're in there
Where do you hide?
This time, I only came to say goodbye
But you said nothing

Chorus:
So, tell me a lie
Tell me you were high
Let me know why
Tell me anything it takes
Tell me it was a mistake
Tell me how your heart breaks
It meant nothing anyway
Do anything to make me stay
But you say nothing, oh
You say nothing

Do anything to make me stay
But you say, oh, oh
And you say nothing
Do anything to make me stay
But you say
