Capo on 9th or 4th fret. 
I prefer it on 9th
[Verse 1]
When your Gtears are speDnt, on your Clast pretense
and your Gtired eyes refDuse to close and Csleep in your defense
when it's Gin your spDine, like you've Cwalked for miles
and the Gonly thing you waDnt is just to Cbe still for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
Goh eh, oh eh, oh Dewwwww Emoh eh, oh eh, oh Cewwwww
[Chorus]
if your Gheart wears thin i will Dhold you up 
and i Emwill hide you when it Cgets too much.
i'll be riGght besDide you.
i'll be riEmght besCide you.
[Verse 2]
Gwhen you're overwheDlmed and you've loCst your breath when the Gspace between
the Dthings you know is Cblurry nonetheless.
when you Gtry to spDeak but you Cmake no sound 
and the Gwords you want are Dout of reach 
but they've Cnever been so loud.
[Chorus]
and if your Gheart wears thin i will Dhold you up
and i Emwill hide you when it Cgets too much.
i'll be riGght besDide you.
i'll be rEmight besCide you.
I will GstayD, nobody will Embreak yCou
[Bridge]
   Em     G  Ctrust in me, trust in me, don't pull away.
   EM     Gjust Ctrust in me trust in me
Emi'm just trying to kCeep this together, because Emi could do worse and Dyou 
could do better
When your Gtears are spDent on your Clast pretense.
and your tGired eyes reDfuse to close and Csleep in you defence.
[Chorus]
if your Gheart wears thin i will Dhold you up 
and i Emwill hide you when it Cgets too much.
i'll be riGght besDide you.
nobody will Embreak yCou
[Chorus]
if your Gheart wears thin i will Dhold you up 
and i Emwill hide you when it Cgets too much.
i'll be riGght besDide you.
nobody will Embreak yCou
