[Intro]

F C G Am

[Verse 1]

F C G Am

The night that we first met

F C G

Your best friend’s apartment.

F C G Am

You were just a skeleton

F C G

Composed of bones and promise

F C G Am

The next two years were a waltz,

F C G

We swayed back and forth, my footing got lost

F C G Am

And honestly, if I’m being honest with myself

F C G

I’ve never been one for dancing.

[Chorus]

F C G Am

And I’ve said some things I’ve grown to regret

F C

I stumbled upon a thought

G Am

It left me comforted

F C G Am

What if I was made to break your heart?

F C G G

What if I was made to break your heart?

[Interlude]

F C G Am

[Verse 2]

F C G Am

I sat you down and we talked

F C G

About where we were headed and love

F C G Am

I carved the moment into an anchor

F C G

So I can weigh myself down.

[Chorus]

F C G Am

And I’ve said some things I’ve grown to regret

F C

I stumbled upon a thought

G Am

It left me comforted

F C G Am

What if I was made to break your heart?

F C G

What if I was made to break your –

[Bridge]

Am G

I started singing songs

C F Am G

About redemption from the cities to the small towns

C F

Anyone who would listen

Am G C F

Anxieties – a bottomless pit,

Am G

But I’ll claw my way out of it.

C F

I’ll claw my way out of this.

[Chorus]

F C G Am

What if I was made to break your heart?

F C G

What if I was made to break –

F C G Am

What if I was made,

F C G

What if I was made,

F C G Am

What if I was made to break your heart? X2
