Notes:
- Use barre A for the verses, open A for the chorus.
- For the last D in the chorus ("I'm locked up..."), strum it once and let it ring.
- Change back to barre chords beginning with the A immediately after the chorus (on "try").
- For verse 3, use open chords, except the last A/C#m/Bm sequence.
- Again, listen to the song to hear how Marc plays it.

I'm picking up these broken pieces again

We've been here before

Well I've been here before
SIm LA DO#m SIm
Not coming back again
SIm
And I can't sleep
CHORUS
RE LA
Because pretenders never sleep with a smile

RE LA
And even though I say I'm feeling fine
RE LA DO#m SIm
I'm locked up, loaded down, short a try

We're never coming back again, not again
SIm LA
I love the way you walk
DO#m SIm
The way that you talk

The way you live

If I could, I'd be here

I can't

Well I can't sleep
CHORUS

I'm locked up, loaded down, short a try
VERSE 3:
RE LA
I wish to God that I been there for you my dear

And I'm never gonna ask you why
RE LA
Because I'm locked up, loaded down, short a try
RE
I'm locked up, loaded down
LA DO#m SIm
And I'm short a try
