[Verse 1]
  GDown and out   Clike the gutters I Emwas wrapping myself  Daround another
  GWord I heard   Cfrom my mother, that Em'life is gonna changeD'
  GNew beginnings   Csit on top of the Emrock and the rubble of an Dolder love
  GI guess that I wasn't Cready enoughEm  D  
[Pre-Chorus]
  CAnd it hits you when you Emjust don't want it
  DYour bones are aching and your hope is stunted
  CIt's Emringing in yDour ears
[Chorus]
It's as loud as a Gfight and maybe it's another mistDake
But it's one that I'm ready to mEmake
If I'm feeling this aClive
It's out of my hGands, there's nothing else I can Ddo
I was gone as soon aEms you saw it in my Ceyes
It's the sDound of fGalling in lDove tonGightC  Em  D  
[Verse 2]
  GJust a day, just   Canother day
  EmJust a day is   Dall it takes 
  GTo turn a heart of stone   Cinto fire
I was Emburning the road as the Dmiles climbed higher
With Gevery sign I was   Cfalling harder
It was   Emclear to me that I Dcouldn't be farther
From the Gperson that I Cwas yesterdayEm  D  
[Pre-Chorus]
  CAnd it hits you when you Emjust don't know it
  DYour heart is heavy and your mouth was open
  CIt's Emringing in yDour ears
[Chorus]
It's as loud as a Gfight and maybe it's another mistDake
But it's one that I'm ready to mEmake
If I'm feeling this aClive
It's out of my hGands, there's nothing else I can Ddo
I was gone as soon as yEmou saw it in my eCyes

  GCan you hear it,   Ccan you hear it,   Emcan you hear it Dnow
  GCan you hear it,   Ccan you hear it,   Emcan you hear it Dnow

[Intro]

G C Em D

[Verse 1]

G C Em D

Down and out like the gutters I was wrapping myself around another

G C Em D

Word I heard from my mother, that 'life is gonna change'

G C Em D

New beginnings sit on top of the rock and the rubble of an older love

G C Em D

I guess that I wasn't ready enough

[Pre-Chorus]

C Em

And it hits you when you just don't want it

Your bones are aching and your hope is stunted

C Em D

It's ringing in your ears

[Chorus]

G D

It's as loud as a fight and maybe it's another mistake

But it's one that I'm ready to make

If I'm feeling this alive

G D

It's out of my hands, there's nothing else I can do

Em C

I was gone as soon as you saw it in my eyes

D G D G C Em D

It's the sound of falling in love tonight

[Verse 2]

G C

Just a day, just another day

Em D

Just a day is all it takes

G C

To turn a heart of stone into fire

Em D

I was burning the road as the miles climbed higher

G C

With every sign I was falling harder

Em D

It was clear to me that I couldn't be farther

G C Em D

From the person that I was yesterday

[Pre-Chorus]

C Em

And it hits you when you just don't know it

Your heart is heavy and your mouth was open

C Em D

It's ringing in your ears

[Chorus]

G D

It's as loud as a fight and maybe it's another mistake

But it's one that I'm ready to make

If I'm feeling this alive

G D

It's out of my hands, there's nothing else I can do

Em C

I was gone as soon as you saw it in my eyes

D G D G C Em D G C Em D

It's the sound of falling in love tonight

[Bridge]

G C Em D

Can you hear it, can you hear it, can you hear it now

G C Em D

Can you hear it, can you hear it, can you hear it now

[Outro]

G D

It's as loud as a fight and maybe it's another mistake

But it's one that I'm ready to make

If I'm feeling this alive
