All strings tuned down 1/2 step.
(Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)
INTRO AND VERSE:
(Only play Eb Ab Db strings)
G Am Em C
Under the shadows, forbidden and hot
Desire grows, more often than not
«I’m sorry» is a stupid thing to say
Especially considering it’s not like I planned it this way
PRE-CHORUS:
F G
But «I’m sorry» is all that there is left of me
F G
I’m so sorry this love left me hollow and made you empty
CHORUS:
C G
Maybe I could have loved you better
C G
Maybe you should have loved me more
F G
Maybe our hearts were just next in line
F G Am
Maybe everything breaks sometime
F G Am (arpeggiated)
Everything breaks sometime
C Em C Em
It’s hard to believe it’s boiled down to this
It seems so surreal; this won’t be healed by a kiss
It’s hard to stare at you, knowing you like I have
I used to feel so close, now I feel so bad
My heart’s filled with thunderstorms and I’m ready to burst
And I’ve lost my favorite harbor and I’ll weather for the worst
Maybe I could have loved you better
Maybe you should have loved me more
Maybe our hearts were just next in line
Maybe everything breaks sometime
Everything breaks sometime
ENDING:
F G Am
I’m so sorry, everything breaks sometime
