Am     G
C
[Verse 1]
I am on the Amvery first Gweek away from Cyou
Not a lot to Amsay Gor C/Gdo
I see you in the Amplaces where I Gonce Fheld your C/Gskin
There's no where I can Amgo Gwhere we haven't C/Gbeen
[Chorus]
FIn the middle of a heartbreak Amsong that I'm Gwriting for Fyou
FI find words to escape Amwith all the Gcourage I grFew
FBut I feel you pulAmling and my Gspirit breaks aFgain
FI'll be whole but I don't know when
[Interlude]
       Am        G    CI'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when
       Am        G    CI'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when
[Verse 2]
It's easy to comAmpress our Gtime into only C/Ggood
And looking back it's Ameasy to think that nothing Gever really went wC/Grong
And I remember Amheartache and it Ghelps me FundersCtand
Trying to find Amcomfort aGnyway I Ccan
[Chorus]
FIn the middle of a heartbreak Amsong that I'm Gwriting for Fyou
FI find words to escape Amwith all the Gcourage I grFew
FBut I feel you pulAmling and my Gspirit breaks aFgain
FI'll be whole but I don't know when
[Bridge]
       Am        G    CI'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when
       Am        G    CI'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when
And as I lie here in pieces
Breaking was just what I needed
I knew we had to end (I'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when)
The more that I think about it
I was better off without it
But now I have to mend
       Am        G    CI'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when
       Am        G    CI'll be whole, I'll be whole but I don't know when
[Chorus]
FIn the middle of a heartbreak Amsong that I'm Gwriting for Fyou
FI find words to escape Amwith all the Gcourage I grFew
FBut I feel Gyou pulAmling and my Gspirit breaks aFgain
I'll be Cwhole but I don't know when
[Outro]
      Am         G   FBut I don't know when
Am    G   Em F
