You've been watching dawn from the gutter 
G                        C                        G 
Trading one bad move for another 
G                          C                                  Am      C G 
It's been a stormy night but it's almost through 
G                         C                                G 
Friends you once loved don't know you

       Em           C 
So don't you say 
                                           Em          C                                         D 
There's something in your core that can't be saved (it's not true...) 
            Em            C 
Because it's not true 
                                    Em              D         G C 
And every atom of my heart is missing you  

G                         C                   G 
Well it's OK to be scared when

You're stuck behind a door that won't open 
G                                C                                          Am 
The shadows in your dreams that are chasing you 
 
C          D 
They're not true 
         Em          C 
So don't you say 
Am                                      Em          C                                          D 
There's something in your core that can't be saved (it's not true...) 
     Em                     C 
Because it's not true 
                 Am               Em            Dm        
And every atom of my heart is missing you  
Am           C                         G 
The good will come through 
  Bm                           A         D  
I wish that you could feel it 
                                G 
The way you used to 
  Bm           Em   Am         D 
I wish you could believe it 
                                 G C 
The way you used to 
                                 G C 
The way you used to 
Uh uh G
