[Verse 1]
AmDeep in the core of a broken one
CI spy the light of a wounded sun
That Fkeeps you from drowning
CKeeps you from drowning
AmWay beneath the weak surface of it all
CI spy a girl only three foot tall
That Fkeeps me from drowning
DmShe keeps me from droCwning in it aFll
[Chorus]
With the will to Amstay
And the will to stand sGtill
We break the rDmules and liCsten to our own Fskin
With a visible Cscar in a broken sidecaGr
We break the ruDmles and lisCten to our own Fskin
We break our heDmarts and preCtty much everyFthing
[Verse 2]
AmAfter the dark and endless wars
CI realize that I'm fighting a cause
That Fends with us drowning
           Dm(C)             F  
Ends with us drowning in it all
[Chorus]
With the will to Amstay
And the will to stand sGtill
DmWe break the rules and lCisten to our own sFkin
With a visible Cscar in a broken sidecaGr
We break the ruDmles and lisCten to our own Fskin
We break our heDmarts and prCetty much everyFthing
[Bridge]
EmWith the same old star and the same old Dmsun
CBuilt to keep us both in the same old lFove
EmAnd when the present tense meets the present Dmtime
EmBuilt to keep our worlds in Dmline
[Outro]
We break the Dmrules and Clisten to our own Fskin
We break our Dmhearts and Cpretty much everyFthing
We break the Dmrules and Clisten to our own Fskin
We break our Dmhearts and Cpretty much everyFthing

[Verse 1]

Deep in the core of a broken one

I spy the light of a wounded sun

That keeps you from drowning

Keeps you from drowning

Way beneath the weak surface of it all

I spy a girl only three foot tall

That keeps me from drowning

Dm C F

She keeps me from drowning in it all

[Chorus]

With the will to stay

And the will to stand still

Dm C F

We break the rules and listen to our own skin

C G

With a visible scar in a broken sidecar

Dm C F

We break the rules and listen to our own skin

Dm C F

We break our hearts and pretty much everything

[Verse 2]

After the dark and endless wars

I realize that I'm fighting a cause

That ends with us drowning

Dm C F

()

Ends with us drowning in it all

[Chorus]

With the will to stay

And the will to stand still

Dm C F

We break the rules and listen to our own skin

C G

With a visible scar in a broken sidecar

Dm C F

We break the rules and listen to our own skin

Dm C F

We break our hearts and pretty much everything

[Bridge]

Em Dm

With the same old star and the same old sun

C F

Built to keep us both in the same old love

Em Dm

And when the present tense meets the present time

Em Dm

Built to keep our worlds in line

[Outro]

Dm C F

We break the rules and listen to our own skin

Dm C F

We break our hearts and pretty much everything

Dm C F

We break the rules and listen to our own skin

Dm C F

We break our hearts and pretty much everything
