[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
     Em
Let it slide
All the choices I made
      B
Let it burn
As it rolls down my face
      G
Let it fall
           Am
Just to be the one again
          Bm
But if I want
I won't be loved by you at all
      Em
Let it slip
Every promise I break
       B
Let it burn
All the blows that we trade
       G
Let it fall
               Am
'cause this place has been condemned
             Bm
And we both know
              B
That we can't be here anymore
[Instrumental]
Em   A D
[Chorus]
 C
Yeah, I know I pulled a pin on your heart
       Em
But I lost sight of the target when you let down your guard
             D
Should've run, run a hundred miles
Never look back, Jack, 'cause now we can't backtrack
                            C
And yeah, I know what you'll say, nothing can change
                              Em
No one to blame, it's on the tip of my tongue
                                          D
Here it comes, this is crazy, you should know that
I would go back in a heartbeat
Just to make your heart beat
Em
[Verse 2]
 Em
Let it fail
It's too late to be saved
       B
Let it roll
They're all across this grey
       G
Let it blaze
           Am
There's a darkness in the flame
         Bm
And it's lost
And we can't bear it anymore
       Em
Let it slide
I can't start it again
        B
Let it burn
While it's held in my hand
       G
Let it fall
             Am
'cause this journey is at its end
         Em
It's only luck
  B
That I was loved by you at all
[Instrumental]
Em A D
[Chorus]
 C
Yeah, I know I pulled a pin on your heart
       Em
But I lost sight of the target when you let down your guard
            D
Should've run, run a hundred miles
Never look back track, 'cause now we can backtrack
                            C
And yeah, I know what you'll say, nothing can change
                             Em
No one to blame, it's on the tip of my tongue
                        D
Here it comes, this is crazy, you should know that
I would go back in a heartbeat
Just to make your heart beat
[Chorus]
   C
Yeah, I know I pulled a pin on your heart
        Em
But I lost sight of the target when you let down your guard
           D
Should've run, run a hundred miles
Never look back track, 'cause now we can backtrack
   C
And yeah, I know what you'll say, nothing can change
                             Em
No one to blame, it's on the tip of my tongue
                                   D
Here it comes, this is crazy, you should know that
I would go back in a heartbeat
                           G
Just to make your heart beat
