Intro: Bmadd9 | Dmaj | Bmadd9 | Dmaj

Bmadd9           Dmaj
I’ve been here before,
Bmadd9              Dmaj
But always hit the floor.
     Gmaj
I’ve spent a lifetime running
      F#sus4
And I always get away,
         Gmaj
But with you I’m feeling something
     F#sus4           F#
That makes me want to stay.

Bmadd9           Dmaj
I’m prepared for this,
Bmadd9           Dmaj
I never shoot to miss.
      Gmaj
But I feel like a storm is coming
       F#sus4
If I’m gonna make it through the day.
            Gmaj
And there’s no more use in running,
        F#sus4            F#
This is something I gotta face.

 Bm   A    D    Gmaj
   If I risk it all,
 Bm      A    D       F#7      
   Could you break my fall?

Chorus:
     F#7      Bm             A6     
     How do I live? How do I breathe?
                     Gmaj             A6     
     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    Bm                   A6     
     I want to feel love, run through my blood.
                 Gmaj                     F#m7
     Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
         Em7                   F#m7 F#7
     For you I have to risk it all
                                 Bmadd9
     ’Cause the writing’s on the wall.

Instrumental: Bmadd9 | Dmaj

Bmadd9               Dmaj
A million shards of glass
Bmadd9                Dmaj
That haunt me from my past.
       Gmaj
As the stars begin to gather,
        F#sus4          F#7sus4       
And the light begins to fade,
         Gmaj
When all hope begins to shatter,
          F#sus4       F#
Know that I won’t be afraid.

 Bm   A    D    Gmaj
   If I risk it all,
 Bm      A    D       F#7      
   Could you break my fall?

Chorus:
     F#7      Bm             A6     
     How do I live? How do I breathe?
                     Gmaj             A6     
     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    Bm                   A6     
     I want to feel love, run through my blood.
                 Gmaj                     F#m7
     Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
         Em7                   F#m7 F#7
     For you I have to risk it all
                                 Bmadd9 Dmaj
     ’Cause the writing’s on the wall.
                     Bmadd9     Dmaj
     The writing’s on the wall.

Instrumental: G | F#sus4 F#7 | G | F#sus4 F#7

              Bm             A6

     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.

     How do I live? How do I breathe?

     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    Bm                   A6

     For you I have to risk it all
                                  Bm
     ’Cause the writing’s on the wall.
