G             C              D
It's not the way you didn't see me
G        C            D
I never come here anymore
G           C                  D
You have a life, you have to live it
      Em          D/F#   G  C D
And I can't blame you at all

It's not the way I saw you kiss him
Before you got out of the car
But I could tell you really love him
That's what breaks my heart

Chorus:
          Em                       C
I wonder, maybe if I walk these streets again
D             Am
Maybe I could find it
Em                     C
Looking for a train I didn't miss
D              Am      C
Maybe I could ride it out
          G           D
'Til the sun, in the morning
         Am           C
I'll be fine, in the morning
         G              D
Sleep it off, 'til the morning comes

It's strange to be here in the same room
To breathe the same air that you are
But now I'm stuck here on an island
Where I can't even see the stars
But I still see, just how perfect we can be, yeah
And that's what breaks my heart

Chorus

                           Em
Oh, I know you couldn't believe
C                            G   D
Yeah, I know you couldn't believe

You were leaving when you noticed
And you were kind, to say hello
But there's a truth I came to terms with
As you walked out of the door

See, there's a chance in never knowing
There's a hope in holding on
To finally know you'll never love me
If I'm honest...
That's what breaks my heart
That's what breaks my heart
That's what breaks my heart
