Intro 
           Am   Fm              Am      Fm 
In the morning when the smoke is cleared... 
 
Am      F                        C 
Will be waking up alone 
Am Fm           Am Fm 
And the story of how we ended here 
Am      F                       C 
Is the same old one we know 
 
G                       Fm 
When everything is not enough 
G                       Fm 
And all you know is playing rough 
G                       Fm 
And we get going when it's too tough 
G 
This study of falling 
F               Am 
But still I'm holding you 
F               Am 
But still I'm holding you 
F               Am 
But still I'm holding you 
G 
You let go, and I'll let go too 
 
Bridge  
 
Am C G (x2) 
 
Verse 
 
Am        Fm           Am Fm 
And we're rolling through the aftermath 
Am        Fm               C 
Of all the words that slid beneath the door 
Am        Fm       Am Fm 
Yeah we're falling to our usual path 
Am     Fm                    C 
of all mistakes that we have lived before 
 
G       Fm 
When everything is not enough 
G       Fm 
And all you know is playing rough 
G       Fm 
And we get going when it's too tough 
G 
This study of falling 
F               Am 
But still I'm holding you 
F               Am 
But still I'm holding you 
F               Am 
But still I'm holding you 
G 
You let go, and I'll let go too 
 
Bridge  
 
Am C G x3 
 
Verse 
 
Am        Fm           Am Fm 
And we're rolling through the afterglow 
Am        Fm               C 
Of an implosion that had made no sound 
Am        Fm       Am Fm 
And we're falling back to what we know 
Am     Fm                    C 
To land with both our knees upon the ground 
 
G Fm 
When everything is not enough 
G Fm 
And all you know is playing rough 
G Fm 
And we get going when it's too tough 
G 
This study of falling 
Fm Am 
But still I'm holding you 
Fm Am 
But still I'm holding you 
Fm Am 
But still I'm holding you 
G 
You let go, and I'll let go too 
 
Bridge 
 
 Am C G x2
