Intro: G5--A5--B5--(x2)


Verse 1:
[G5] Tell me girl what were you thinking?
Hit me with something that will make this worth my time
[B5] Take it back, take it all back now
Every promise I made was just another mistake with you
[G5] Tell the truth if you think that you can take it
But I know, you [A5]wont
[B5] I never felt so all alone
But when it was safe I turned my back and the blade came through

Refrain:
And [G5]I can barely breathe And I can barely breathe
And I can barely breathe

Chorus:
[G5] Stand on top of the [A5]roof top wondering[B5] Is it good? Yea it's good for jumping
[G5] Take back every [A5]word you said Cause [B5]I can barely breathe
(and I can barely breathe)

Verse 2:
[G5] Tell me now can you still taste him?
Cause you know you'll never wash your hands of this
[B5] Take it back, take it all back now
Every drunken kiss that landed on his lips from you
[G5] Make a move if you think that you can make it
But I know, you [A5]wont
[B5] I never felt so all alone
But when it was safe I turned my back and the blade came through

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus twice)

Interlude: G5-A5 (x4) B5

Bridge:
[G5]Hold [A5]your [G5]tounge[A5]
You know [G5]nothing a[A5]bout this
Don't [G5]even [A5]get in[B5]volved
I hope you watch as I'm falling down
Because you are the reason I'd hit the ground
[G5]You could [D/F#]be the [E5]one that [D5]breaks me
[G5]You will [D/F#]be the [E5]one that [D5]breaks me now[B5]
I hope you know that every tear you cried
Is a memory left from when you watch me die
You know i'll [G5]haunt your [D/F#]dreams
[E5] With all these [D5]pieces you s[G5]tole of [D/F#]me
[E5] [D5]Of [B5]me

(Repeat Refrain and Chorus twice)
