[Verse 1]

You unbuttoned your shirt

And I looked at your heart

Then you showed me your lungs

Yeah you pulled them apart

And I echoed it back

And for what it's worth

[Chorus]

Oh I think we've been measured out for pain since birth

[Verse 2]

We uncovered ourselves

Whispered into the dark

I untangled your words

Yeah I pulled them apart

F G

And you echoed it back

And for what it's worth

[Chorus]

Fmaj7 E Am

Oh I think we've been measured out for pain since birth

[Break]

[Verse 3]

Why should I go in now

Will we echo it back?

Or would it be worse

[Chorus]
