Capo on 3rd fret
               
 
 
C                G 
I woke up in the place we started 
     Am                           F           
Your clothes on the floor in that old apartment 
C                     G               Am  F 
I never thought you?d leave without a trace 
 
C                G 
Can?t shake this sinking feeling 
      Am                            F              
And I know you?re not there and I?m barely breathing 
C            G              Am   F 
Holding onto things I can?t replace 
 
                  C                G                Am F 
I?m looking for a way to change my mind, don?t walk away 
 
C                               G 
Oh! tell me what we?re fighting for 
                           Am 
Its turned into an all out war 
                             F                     C 
I?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go 
                               G 
I?m trying to find my way back home 
                               Am 
If it takes until I?m skin and bones 
                             F                     C 
I?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go 
 
C                      G 
Our last words ringing in my head 
  Am                          F            
I wish we?d take back all the things we said 
C                     G      Am     F 
I?m trying to find a way to yesterday 
 
C 
Talking in circles 
G                     Am                    F 
Chasing our tails and wondering why we created this wasteland 
C                   G     Am    F 
I wish you wouldn?t be so cavalier 
 
                  C                G                Am F 
I?m looking for a way to change my mind, don?t walk away 
 
C                               G 
Oh! tell me what we?re fighting for 
                           Am 
Its turned into an all out war 
                             F                     C 
I?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go 
                               G 
I?m trying to find my way back home 
                               Am 
If it takes until I?m skin and bones 
                             F                     C 
I?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go 
          F                         C 
Fix these broken pieces and let go 
 
Am            F                C 
We?re fading out, we?re all alone 
              G              Am 
It?s what you wanted, I suppose 
      F                 C 
I can tell you feel the same 
         G                        Am                 F 
When you say you?re looking for a way to change your mind 
         C 
You walk away 
 
C                               G 
Oh, tell me what we?re fighting for 
                           Am 
Its turned into an all out war 
                              F 
We?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces 
 
C                               G 
Oh! tell me what we?re fighting for 
                           Am 
Its turned into an all out war 
                             F                     C 
I?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go 
                               G 
I?m trying to find my way back home 
                               Am 
If it takes until I?m skin and bones 
                             F                     C 
I?ll find a way to fix these broken pieces and let go 
          F                         C 
Fix these broken pieces and let go
