In my darkest hour I've never been

To places that today I know I've seen

And though it doesn't matter much to you

I wish you could go there too

G B

So you could know the emptiness I feel

Verse 2

Em C G B7

You're the reason why my world caved in

Just when I was breathing once again

When you think you've found the real thing

To invest emotions in

G B

It's hard as hell to find out you were wrong

Chorus

How long will this misery carry on?

Am C B G B

My broken heart lays shattered on the floor

If I hadn't been so quick to let it show

Em, C, G, B7 x 1

Verse 3

Em C G B7

It's funny how vulnerable you get

So I'll be a slave to my regret

And if I ever get over it

I won't let myself be taken in again

Chorus

C B G A

So sad, I've given it all I have

Am C B G B

But I can't make you love me, that's a fact

I understand, and I wish I'd never shown my hand
