[Intro]
Am G
La da da nda da
C F
La da da nda da
Am G F
La da da nda da da da
Am G
Grew up in a small town
C F
And when the rain would fall down
Am G F C
I'd just stare out my window
Am G
Dreamin' of what could be
C F
And if I'd end up happy
Am G F (C)
I would pray
Am G
Trying hard to reach out
C F
But when I tried to speak out
Am G F C
Felt like no one could hear me
Am G
Wanted to belong here
C F
But something felt so wrong here
Am G F
So I'd pray
Am G D F
I could breakaway
C G
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Am F
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
C G
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
Am G F
And breakaway
C G
Out of the darkness and into the sun
Am F
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
C G
I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change
Am G C
And breakaway
G
Buildings with a hundred floors
F
Swinging 'round revolving doors
Am F C
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me, but
G F
Gotta keep movin' on, movin' on
D
Fly away
F G
Breakaway
(just play these tones on the topE streng)

Here's the thing
B Em
We started out friends
F#G
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah yeah
B Em F# G
Since you been gone
(take the chord but just play on the top one, two or three)
G B Em
You're dedicated, you took the time
F# G
Wasn't long 'til I called you mine
Yeah yeah
B Em
Since you been gone
(take the chord play on the top 3 or 4)
F# G
And all you'd ever hear me say
B Em
Is how I picture me with you
F# G
That's all you'd ever hear me say
(play normaly)
(CHOURSE) Em C G
But since you been gone

I can breathe for the first time
Em
I'm so moving on
C G
Yeah yeah
Am
Thanks to you
G D
Now I get what I want
G
Since you been gone
(same as first verse)
How can I put it, you put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah yeah
Since you been gone
How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with be with you
Guess you never felt that way
CHOURSE
C G
You had your chance, you blew it
C G
Out of sight, out of mind
D Em
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
C Em
Again, and again, and again, and again...
Em C G X 4
CHOURSE

Seems like just yesterday

You were a part of me

I used to be so strong
F# D
Your arms around me tight
A E
Everything it felt so right
F# D A
Unbreakable like nothing could
E
go wrong
D
Now I can't breathe
A
No I can't sleep
F# E
I'm barely hanging on
F#
Here I am
D
Once again
A E
I'm torn into pieces
F#
Can't deny it
D
Can't pretend
A E
Just thought you were the one
F# A
Broken up deep inside
Bm
But you won't get to see the tears
F# D
I cry
A E
Behind these hazel eyes
I told you everything
Opened up and let you in
You made me feel alright for once in my life
Now all that's left of me
Is what I pretend to be
So together but so broken up inside
Cause I can't breathe
No I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on
Em D
I will not make
C
The same mistakes that you did
Em D
I will not let myself
C
Cause my heart so much misery
Em D
I will not break
C
The way you did, you fell so hard
Em D
I've learned the hard way
C D
To never let it get that far
Em
Because of you
C D
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Em
Because of you
C D
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Em
Because of you
C D
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
C D
Because of you I am afraid
I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh, every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing
Because of you
Because of you
Because of you I am afraid
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you I am afraid
Because of you
Bbm F# G# Ebm
It's like your a drug
It's like your a demon I can't face down
It's like I'm stunned
It's like I'm running from you all the time
And I know I let you have all powers like
The only company I see is misery all around
It's like your a leech
Sucking the life from me
It's like I can't breathe
Without you inside of me
And I know I let you have all the power
And I realize I'm not gonna quit you over time
Bbm F# G# Ebm
It's like I can't breathe
It's like I can't see anything
Nothing but you
I'm addicted to you
It's like I can't think
Without you in
You're haunting me
In my thoughts
In my dreams
You're taking over me
Ebm
It's like I'm not me
F
It's like I'm not me
Bbm G# F# Ebm
I'm hooked on you
I need a fix
I can't take it
Just one more hit
I promise I can do with it
I'll handle then quit it
Just one more time then that's it
Just don't let open
But you'll get me through this
C
I don't believe
Bb
In the smile that you leave me with
F C
When you walk away and say goodbye
Well I don't expect
Bb F C
The world to implode beneath me but for God's sake could you try
I know that you're true to me
Bb
You're always there, you say you care
F G
I know that you wanna be mine
Bb
Where is your heart
F C
Cause I don't really feel you
Bb
Where is your heart
F C
What I really want is to believe you
Bb F
Is it so hard to give me what I need
Am
I want your heart to bleed
G Bb F
And that's all I'm asking for
C
Where is your heart?
I don't understand
Your love is so cold
It's always me who's reaching out for your hand
I always dreamed
That love would be effortless
Like a petal falling to the ground
A dreamer following his dream
G F C
It seems so much is left inside
G F
But you can say anything
Am G
Oh anytime you need
Am G Bb
Baby it's just you and me
I know that you're true to me
You're always there, you say you care
I know that you wanna be mine
C#m B
Is this a dream
A
If it is
B C#m
Please don't wake me from this high
B
I'd become
A
Comfortably numb
B A
Until you opened up my eyes
B
To what it's like
A
When everything's right
B
Oh I can't believe
E A
You found me
C#m B
When no one else was looking
E A C#m B
How did you know just where I would be
E A C#m B
Yeah you broke through all of my confusion
E A C#m B
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
E A C#m B
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
E
You found me
So here we are
And that's pretty far
When you think of where we've been
No going back
I'm fading out
All that has faded me within
You're by my side
Now everything's fine
I can believe
I was hiding
Till you came along
And showed me where I belong
You found me
When no one else was looking
How did you know just where I would be
Yeah you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
The good and the bad and the things (everything) in between
You found me
Am
I woke up today
C
Woke up wide awake
F
In an empty bed
G
Staring at an empty room
Am
I have myself to blame
C
For the state I'm in today
F G
And now dying doesn't seem so cruel
Am F
And oh, I don't know what to say
G Dm
And I don't know anyway, anymore
F C G Am
I hate myself for losing you
F C G Am
I'm seeing it all so clear
F C G Am
I hate myself for losing you
F C
What do you do when you look in the mirror
G Am
And staring at you is why he's not here
You got what you deserved
Hope you're happy now
'Cause every time I think of both of you
It's killing me inside
And now I dread each day
Knowing that I can't be saved
From the loneliness of living without you
And oh, I don't know what to
Not sure that I'll pull through
I wish you knew
I hate myself for losing you
And oh, I don't know what to do
Not sure that I'll pull through
I wish you knew, I wish you knew
And oh, I don't know what to say
And I don't know anyway, anymore
No, no
What do you say, when everything you said
Is the reason why he left you in the end
How do you cry when every day you said
Don't ever bring him back again
Cm Gm
You gotta be out there
Cm Gm
You gotta be somewhere

Are you listening?
