Grew up in a small town
C FAnd when the rain would fall down
Am G F CI'd just stare out my window
Dreamin' of what could be
C FAnd if I'd end up happy
Am G F (C)I would pray
Am G
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Am G F CFelt like no one could hear me
Am GWanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
Am G FSo I'd pray
Am G D FI could breakaway
C G
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
C GAnd I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
Am G FAnd breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
Am FBut I won't forget all the ones that I love
C GI'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Buildings with a hundred floors
FSwinging 'round revolving doors
Am F CMaybe I don't know where they'll take me, but
Gotta keep movin' on, movin' on
DFly away

DSince you been gone
F# D
Seems like just yesterday
A EYou were a part of me
F# DI used to stand so tall
I used to be so strong
F# DYour arms around me tight
A EEverything it felt so right
Unbreakable like nothing could
Ego wrong
D
Now I can't breathe
ANo I can't sleep
I'm barely hanging on
Here I am
DOnce again
A EI'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it
DCan't pretend
A EJust thought you were the one
Broken up deep inside
BmBut you won't get to see the tears
F# DI cry
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
CThe same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
CCause my heart so much misery
Em DI will not break
The way you did, you fell so hard
Em DI've learned the hard way
C DTo never let it get that far
Em
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
EmBecause of you
C DI learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
C DI find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
C DBecause 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
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
FIt'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
I don't believe
BbIn the smile that you leave me with
F CWhen you walk away and say goodbye
Well I don't expect
Bb F CThe world to implode beneath me but for God's sake could you try
I know that you're true to me
BbYou're always there, you say you care
I know that you wanna be mine
Bb
Where is your heart
Cause I don't really feel you
BbWhere is your heart
F CWhat I really want is to believe you
Is it so hard to give me what I need
AmI want your heart to bleed
G Bb FAnd that's all I'm asking for
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 FBut you can say anything
Oh anytime you need
Am G BbBaby 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
Is this a dream
AIf it is
B C#mPlease don't wake me from this high
I'd become
AComfortably numb
B AUntil you opened up my eyes
To what it's like
AWhen everything's right
BOh I can't believe
E A
You found me
When no one else was looking
E A C#m BHow did you know just where I would be
E A C#m BYeah you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
E A C#m BI guess that you saw what nobody could see
EYou 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
CWoke up wide awake
In an empty bed
GStaring at an empty room
AmI have myself to blame
For the state I'm in today
F GAnd now dying doesn't seem so cruel
Am FAnd oh, I don't know what to say
And I don't know anyway, anymore
I hate myself for losing you
F C G AmI'm seeing it all so clear
F C G AmI hate myself for losing you
What do you do when you look in the mirror
G AmAnd 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 GmYou gotta be somewhere
Wherever you are
F GmI'm waiting...
Cm GmCause there are these nights when
I sing myself to sleep
CmAnd I'm hoping my dreams bring
F GmYou close to me
Are you listening?
Hear me I'm crying out
I'm ready now
Turn my world upside down
Find me
I'm lost inside this crowd
It's getting loud
I need you to see
Bb CmI'm screaming for you to please
Gm BbHear me
Can you hear me?
I used to be scared of
Letting someone in
But it gets so lonely
Being on my own
With no one to talk to and
No one to hold me
I'm not always strong
Oh I need you here
Are you listening?
GmI'm restless and wild
I fall but I try
CmI need someone to understand
(Can you hear me?)
GmI'm lost in my thoughts
BbAnd baby I've fought
For all that I've got
Can you hear me?
D G C
He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme, I know
D G CHe's as damned as he seems
D G CAnd more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I tried to save him
Bm EmMy whole world could cave in
C AmIt just ain't right, it just ain't right
D
Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
DBut he's so beautiful
C DSuch a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
CThrough the tears and the laughter
DWould it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster?
I'm longing for love and the logical
Bb F GmBut he's only happy hysterical
Cm Eb FI'm waitin' for some kind of miracle
Waiting so long,
G CSo long
