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

SOL SI MIm
You're dedicated, you took the time
FA# SOL
Wasn't long 'til I called you mine
Yeah yeah
SI MIm
Since you been gone
(take the chord play on the top 3 or 4)
FA# SOL
And all you'd ever hear me say
SI MIm
Is how I picture me with you
FA# SOL
That's all you'd ever hear me say
(play normaly)
(CHOURSE) Em C G
But since you been gone

DO SOL

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
DO SOL
You had your chance, you blew it

Out of sight, out of mind

Again, and again, and again, and again...
MIm DO SOL X 4

Since you been gone
MIm
Since you been gone
RE
Since you been gone
FA# RE
Seems like just yesterday
LA MI
You were a part of me
FA# RE
I used to stand so tall
LA MI
I used to be so strong
FA# RE
Your arms around me tight
LA MI
Everything it felt so right
FA# RE LA
Unbreakable like nothing could
MI
go wrong
RE
Now I can't breathe
LA
No I can't sleep
FA# MI
I'm barely hanging on
FA#
Here I am
RE
Once again
LA MI
I'm torn into pieces
FA#
Can't deny it
RE
Can't pretend
LA MI
Just thought you were the one
FA# LA
Broken up deep inside
SIm
But you won't get to see the tears
FA# RE
I cry
LA MI
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
MIm RE
I will not make
DO
The same mistakes that you did
MIm RE
I will not let myself
DO
Cause my heart so much misery
MIm RE
I will not break
DO
The way you did, you fell so hard
MIm RE
I've learned the hard way
DO RE
To never let it get that far
MIm
Because of you
DO RE
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
MIm
Because of you
DO RE
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
MIm
Because of you
DO RE
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
DO RE
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
SIbm FA# SOL# MIbm
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
SIbm FA# SOL# MIbm
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
MIbm
It's like I'm not me
FA
It's like I'm not me
SIbm SOL# FA# MIbm
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
DO
I don't believe
SIb
In the smile that you leave me with
FA DO
When you walk away and say goodbye
Well I don't expect
SIb FA DO
The world to implode beneath me but for God's sake could you try
I know that you're true to me
SIb
You're always there, you say you care
FA SOL
I know that you wanna be mine
SIb
Where is your heart
FA DO
Cause I don't really feel you
SIb
Where is your heart
FA DO
What I really want is to believe you
SIb FA
Is it so hard to give me what I need
LAm
I want your heart to bleed
SOL SIb FA
And that's all I'm asking for
DO
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
SOL FA DO
It seems so much is left inside
SOL FA
But you can say anything
LAm SOL
Oh anytime you need
LAm SOL SIb
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
DO#m SI
Is this a dream
LA
If it is
SI DO#m
Please don't wake me from this high
SI
I'd become
LA
Comfortably numb
SI LA
Until you opened up my eyes
SI
To what it's like
LA
When everything's right
SI
Oh I can't believe
MI LA
You found me
DO#m SI
When no one else was looking
MI LA DO#m SI
How did you know just where I would be
MI LA DO#m SI
Yeah you broke through all of my confusion
MI LA DO#m SI
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
MI LA DO#m SI
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
MI
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
LAm
I woke up today
DO
Woke up wide awake
FA
In an empty bed
SOL
Staring at an empty room
LAm
I have myself to blame
DO
For the state I'm in today
FA SOL
And now dying doesn't seem so cruel
LAm FA
And oh, I don't know what to say
SOL REm
And I don't know anyway, anymore
FA DO SOL LAm
I hate myself for losing you
FA DO SOL LAm
I'm seeing it all so clear
FA DO SOL LAm
I hate myself for losing you
FA DO
What do you do when you look in the mirror
SOL LAm
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
DOm SOLm
You gotta be out there
DOm SOLm
You gotta be somewhere
DOm SOLm
Wherever you are
FA SOLm
I'm waiting...
DOm SOLm
Cause there are these nights when
DOm SOLm
I sing myself to sleep
DOm
And I'm hoping my dreams bring
FA SOLm
You close to me
DOm
Are you listening?
SOLm SIb DOm
Hear me I'm crying out
I'm ready now
SOLm SIb DOm
Turn my world upside down
Find me
SOLm SIb DOm
I'm lost inside this crowd
It's getting loud
SOLm
I need you to see
SIb DOm
I'm screaming for you to please
SOLm SIb
Hear me
DOm
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?
SOLm
I'm restless and wild
SIb
I fall but I try
DOm
I need someone to understand
(Can you hear me?)
SOLm
I'm lost in my thoughts
SIb
And baby I've fought
DOm
For all that I've got
Can you hear me?
RE SOL DO
He drowns in his dreams
RE SOL DO
An exquisite extreme, I know
RE SOL DO
He's as damned as he seems
RE SOL DO
And more heaven than a heart could hold
MIm DO RE
And if I tried to save him
SIm MIm
My whole world could cave in
DO LAm
It just ain't right, it just ain't right
RE
Oh and I don't know
DO
I don't know what he's after
RE
But he's so beautiful
DO RE
Such a beautiful disaster
RE
And if I could hold on
DO
Through the tears and the laughter
RE
Would it be beautiful?
DO RE
Or just a beautiful disaster?
DOm MIb FA
I'm longing for love and the logical
SIb FA SOLm
But he's only happy hysterical
DOm MIb FA
I'm waitin' for some kind of miracle
SOL DO
Waiting so long,
SOL DO
So long
