E             B              Abm            Gb
You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
E             B           Abm             Gb
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
E            B             Abm                Gb
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied out by a single word
E          B         Abm    Gb
There is a hollow in me now


E                  B
So I put my faith in something unknown
Abm              Gb
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E                      B
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Abm             Gb
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E
And it's hard to learn
B
And it's hard to love
Abm                   Gb
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
E               B
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
Abm              Gb
You're giving me such sweet nothing

Interlude: E   B   Abm   Gb

E       B        Abm          Gb
It isn't easy for me to let it go
  E
Cause
         B       Abm         Gb
I've swallowed every single word
 E
And
        B            Abm  
Every whisper, every sigh
       Gb                    E
Eats away at this heart of mine
                 B           Abm      Gb
And there is a hollow in me now


E                  B
So I put my faith in something unknown
Abm              Gb
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E                      B
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Abm             Gb
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E
And it's hard to learn
B
And it's hard to love
Abm                   Gb
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
E               B
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
Abm              Gb
You're giving me such sweet nothing

Interlude: E   B   Abm   Gb

E               B 
And it's not enough
     Abm             Gb
To tell me that you care
E              B        Abm           Gb
When, we both know the words are empty air
               E   B   Abm   Gb  
You give me nothi-------------ng
E   B   Abm   Gb
Nothi---------ng
