Tom: C

G                                                   G/F#
she rolled over my cold shoulder said “where should we start”
Em                                           Em7
i said “frankly i found lately thats the hardest part”
G                                               G/F#
maybe thats why ive been drawn to those with broken 
Em                         
this cannot be good for me 


[Pre-chorus]
C                  C/B  Am
ive been thinking about drinking but i know
C                 C/B  Am
way too selfish to let go of self control
C                    C/B  Am
pack my bags and head out for the golden coast
C                C/B  Am
somewhere warm where nobody has to know, but


[Chorus]
G5 F5      C5
im falling apart and i know it 
G5 F5      C5
too much of my pride left to show it

G  F          C5
im motionless going through the motions
G     F         C5          Am
spent all of my time simply hoping  
G    Bm             C              Am
hope floats at the bottom of the ocean
G    Bm             C             Am  D
hope floats at the bottom of the ocean


[Verse 2] 
G                                    G/F# 
we were getting academic on our friday nights 
Em                                                   Em7
lighting flames that we would hope would burn right through the sky

G                                              G/F#
scared of everything and nothing at the same damn time
Em                                           
fear was my only enemy


[Pre-Chorus]
C                  C/B  Am
ive been thinking about breathing again
C                 C/B  Am
calling up some of my family and friends
C                      C/B  Am
get close enough to try and let someone in
C                       C/B  Am
hit the lights and fall back into my bed, cuz


[Chorus]
G5 F5      C5
im falling apart and i know it 
G5 F5      C5
too much of my pride left to show it
