Tom: Dm
Dm
C Bb C F
The redness of his face permits
C Bb C F
The truth his words won't dare admit
C Bb C F Bb
His sunken eyes are hid behind a darkened lens
Bb
[Chorus]
Dm Bb F
Broken doors and thoughtless words
C
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Dm Bb F
Feeble threats and loveless debts
C Bb
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
[Verse 2]
Bb C
She stands tall with strength; not height
Dm C Bb
You can see the fists inside her eyes
Bb C
Now it's time for her revenge
Dm
Delivered acid tongue
C
God pity/help him
Bb C Dm
She sits there in the aftermath
C Bm C Dm
As the cars are driving slowly past
C Bm
[Chorus]
Dm Bb F
Broken doors and thoughtless words
C
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Dm Bb F
Feeble threats and loveless debts
C Bb
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
[Bridge]
Bb C
She sits there in the aftermath
Dm F
And listens as cars drive slowly past
Bb C
His final show, his lies
Dm
Have done nothing but cure her smile
C Bb
Her bruises fade from black to blue
Dm Bb F
Over time, they slowly heal
Bb
(You think you've grown, found love again)
C Dm C
When you break your own heart, it will never mend
[Chorus]
Dm Bb F
Broken doors and thoughtless words
C
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Dm Bb F
Feeble threats and loveless debts
C
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
Dm Bb F
Broken doors and thoughtless words
Dm Bb F
Feeble threats and loveless debts
[Outro]
Dm Bb F
Broken doors and thoughtless words
C
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Dm Bb F
Feeble threats and loveless debts
C Dm
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
