Verse 1:
FSo what happens when the hCeart just stGops
FStops caring for anyonCeG  
FThe hollow in your chCest dries Gup
FAnd you stop believingC  G  
FSo what happens when the hCeart gives Gup
FBut the body goes on liviCngG  
FThe blood crawls to a sClow and stGops
FAnd flows awayC  G  
Well we Fgot no-one to meet
No lCove we would bGeseech
We only hFave ourselves to blame for CeverytGhing
The was no aFnswer in the dust
And I'm Cmissing you so mGuch
And now you're Fsleeping
And I'm Cleaving
FEmpty-handed waiting
CTime it will subGside and we'll aFgree
It was a gCivenG  
Well there was no Fstandard we could set
And the Cworld it does rGegret
To have to lFeave you in this state of bereaveCmenGt
AmYou see I'm feeling everEmything
AmNothing gets Emby
There is a hFollow in my chest
The tCime I won't foGrget
There is no cFomfort in the eyes
They put us aClways to the Gtest
I can't Fprepare myself for that
But I Cwork it out in Gtime
There is a Flove that flows between us
Ever-chCanging everyGday
I worked Fmyself up to a crawl
But I'm not Cfearing it at aGll
We have no Freason left to stay
And that's why we're leCavingG  
And there was no Fanswer in the dust
And no oCne out there to tGrust
There is a Flie that drags us
Beating and CpulliGng
into FdisappointmentC  G  
I'm dFisappointedC  G  
I'm dFisappointedC  G  
I'm dFisappointedC  G  
It's Fso late, till you're gone

Verse 1:

F C G

So what happens when the heart just stops

F C G

Stops caring for anyone

F C G

The hollow in your chest dries up

F C G

And you stop believing

F C G

So what happens when the heart gives up

F C G

But the body goes on living

F C G

The blood crawls to a slow and stops

F C G

And flows away

Well we got no-one to meet

C G

No love we would beseech

F C G

We only have ourselves to blame for everything

The was no answer in the dust

C G

And I'm missing you so much

And now you're sleeping

And I'm leaving

Empty-handed waiting

C G F

Time it will subside and we'll agree

C G

It was a given

Well there was no standard we could set

C G

And the world it does regret

F C G

To have to leave you in this state of bereavement

Am Em

You see I'm feeling everything

Am Em

Nothing gets by

There is a hollow in my chest

C G

The time I won't forget

There is no comfort in the eyes

C G

They put us always to the test

I can't prepare myself for that

C G

But I work it out in time

There is a love that flows between us

C G

Ever-changing everyday

I worked myself up to a crawl

C G

But I'm not fearing it at all

We have no reason left to stay

C G

And that's why we're leaving

And there was no answer in the dust

C G

And no one out there to trust

There is a lie that drags us

C G

Beating and pulling

F C G

into disappointment

F C G

I'm disappointed

F C G

I'm disappointed

F C G

I'm disappointed

It's so late, till you're gone
