[VERSE 1]
 ALast HalloEween when the devil F#mgrinned 
 The tattoos on your face covered up your Dskin
 Scarred from the Esin and those sleepless Dnights
 Trying to Efind a fight you can't Awin
[PRE-CHORUS]
 So you chased Ehim, traded that good F#mlife
 Only got yourself another good Dnight
 Until the Emorning darling 
 DWhen you're right Eback to
[CHORUS]
 Falling aApart, falling aC#mpart, you know you're falling aF#mpart
 Just another little lonely broken Dheart
 How did you Eget so cold
 (You'll never Dknow, you 'll never know, you'll never know)
 How did you get so Ecold
[VERSE 2]
 ALife is Eshort and you're no longer F#myoung enough
 To throw around your body for a little Dfun
 Put another Ephoto, spend my Dcash
 Put another Ephoto, have a Ablast
[PRE-CHORUS]
 Now it's gone and I'm Edark and your heart is still F#mcrawling
 It heals, since you kneel 
 And at baggage claim Dbawling til the Emorning darling
 EAnd you're right back to
[CHORUS]
 Falling aApart, falling aC#mpart, you know you're falling aF#mpart
 Just another little lonely broken Dheart
 How did you Eget so cold
 (You'll never Dknow)
 How did you get so Ecold
[BRIDGE]
 You slip aDway into the morning Bmsun
 When he touches your F#mface and your day's beAgun
 I know you hate yourDself for what, what you've dBmone
 So you push it aF#mway, it's getting harder to Arun
 When you run so Dfast and you run so Bmlong
 And it's all your F#mfault cause you were never Astrong
 It's not much of a Dlife though darling
 It's not much of a Elife (life)
 (When you're)

 Falling aApart, falling aC#mpart, you know you're falling aF#mpart
 Just another little lonely broken Dheart
 How did you Eget so cold?D

Last Halloween when the devil grinned

The tattoos on your face covered up your skin

How did you get so cold

Life is short and you're no longer young enough

To throw around your body for a little fun

You slip away into the morning sun

F#m A

When he touches your face and your day's begun

D Bm

I know you hate yourself for what, what you've done

F#m A

So you push it away, it's getting harder to run

D Bm

When you run so fast and you run so long

And it's all your fault cause you were never strong

It's not much of a life though darling

It's not much of a life (life)

(When you're)
