James Morrison ft. Nelly Furtado - Broken Strings chords
Start Jamming...
[Gb]
[Bbm] Let me hold you for the last time, it's [Gb] the last chance to feel again
But [Bbm] you broke me, now I can't feel [Gb] anything
When
[Eb] [Bbm] I love you, I'm so untrue, [Gb] I can't even convince myself
When [Bbm] I'm speaking, it's [Db] the voice of someone [Gb] else
[Ebm]
Oh, it [Ab] tears [Bb] me [Bbm] up
[Gb] I try to [Ab] hold on, but [Fm] it hurts too much
[Gb] I try to [Ab] forgive, but [Fm] it's not enough [Gb] to make it all okay
[Db] You [Ebm] can't play on broken [Bbm] strings
You [Db] can't feel
[Ab] anything
That your [Ebm] heart don't want to [Bbm] feel
I [Db] can't tell you something that [Ab] ain't real
But [Gb] the truth hurts, [Bbm] the lies worse
[Db] I cannot give [Ab] anymore
And [Ebm] I love you a little [Bbm] less than [Ab] before
Oh, what are we doing?
We [Db] are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins [Eb] of us
[Bbm] Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to say
It's like chasing the very [Db] last train when there's [Gb] too little [Ebm] to live
[Gb] Oh, it [Ab] tears [Bbm] me up
[Gb] I try to [Ab] hold on, but [Fm] it hurts too much
[Gb] I try to [Ab] forgive, but [Fm] it's not enough [Gb] to make it all okay
[Db] You [Ebm] can't play on broken [Bbm] strings
You [Db] can't feel [Ab] anything
That [Ebm] your heart don't want [Bbm] to feel
I [Db] can't tell you something that [Ab] ain't real
But [Gb] the truth hurts, [Bbm] the lies worse
[Db] I cannot give [Ab] anymore
And [Ebm] I love you a little [Bbm] less than [Ab] before
Oh, [Gb] we're running through [Bbm] the fire
When [Db] there's nothing left [Gb] to say
It's like chasing the very [Bbm] last train when [Db] we both know it's [Fm] too late Too late
You [Ebm] can't play on broken [Bbm] strings
You [Db] can't feel [Ab] anything
That [Ebm] your heart don't want [Bbm] to feel
I [Db] can't tell you something that [Ab] ain't real
[Gb] But the truth [Bbm] hurts, the lies worse
[Db] I cannot give [Ab] anymore
And [Ebm] I love you a little [Bbm] less than [Ab] before
Oh, you know [Ebm] [Bbm] it's a little less [Ab] than before
Let [Bbm] me hold you for [Db] the last time
[Ab] It's the last chance to feel [Gb] again
