Broken Strings by James Morrison

       Bm 
Let me hold you 
        Bm         
For the last time 
          G                     G
It's the last chance to feel again 
        Bm 
But you broke me 
      Bm             G       
Now I can't feel anything 
       Bm 
When I love you, 
         Bm
It's so untrue 
   G                     G
I can't even convince myself 
          Bm 
When I'm speaking, 
          D                G    Em 
It's the voice of someone else 


      G     A  Bm 
Oh it tears me up 
   G          A          F#m 
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much 
  G         A              F#m             G              D 
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay 


           Em            Bm 
You can't play on broken strings 
           D       A  
You can't feel anything  
           Em                 Bm 
That your heart don't want to feel 
         D                            A 
I can't tell you something that ain't real 
        G      
Oh the truth hurts 
     Bm   
And lies worse 
D                  A 
How can I give anymore 
        Em               Bm           A 
When I love you a little less than before 


         Bm    D 
Oh what are we doing 
        G            D
We are turning into dust 
        Bm           D        G    Em 
Playing house in the ruins of us 
        Bm               D 
Running back through the fire 
             G                D
When there's nothing left to save 
          Bm           D                        G         Em 
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late 


      G     A  Bm 
Oh it tears me up 
  G           A          F#m 
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much 
  G         A              F#m            G               D 
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay 


           Em            Bm 
You can't play on broken strings 
           D       A  
You can't feel anything  
           Em                 Bm 
That your heart don't want to feel 
         D                            A 
I can't tell you something that ain't real 
        G      
Oh the truth hurts 
     Bm   
And lies worse 
D                  A 
How can I give anymore 
        Em               Bm           A 
When I love you a little less than before 


           G                  Bm 
But we're running through the fire 
              D              G 
When there's nothing left to save 
           Bm            D
It's like chasing the very last train 
        D                   G
When we both know it's too late (too late) 


           Em            Bm 
You can't play on broken strings 
           D       A  
You can't feel anything  
           Em                 Bm 
That your heart don't want to feel 
         D                            A 
I can't tell you something that ain't real 
        G      
Oh the truth hurts 
     Bm   
And lies worse 
D                  A 
How can I give anymore 
        Em               Bm           A 
When I love you a little less than before 


        Bm               D 
Let me hold you for the last time 
         A                     G 
It's the last chance to feel again
