Verse 1:
 Cm              Ab                Bb             G
 Drag my hand behind you like a chain behind a truck.
  Cm               Ab               Bb                     G
 Sparks over your carpet while I chase you through the darkness.
  Ab              Bb               Cm        G
 Somebody's supposed to fall in love, but nobody even calls.
  Ab             Bb
 Somebody's supposed to...

Chorus:
  Bb               Cm               Ab       Bb      Cm         Ab
 Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait.
 Bb           Cm             Ab      Bb          Cm         Ab    Bb
 You'll be excited just to see me someday. Everything's ok.

Verse 2:
             Cm                Ab
 Summer and gold throw their colors at the dark,
     Bb                             G
 a mother tells her son, "Darling look at the sparks."
           Ab                   Bb
 But you hold my attention without even trying.
      Cm                        G
 a beautiful reflection from firework eyes,
       Ab            Bb
 but never means forever.
   Cm               G                        Ab
 Desperation and hanging in the backyard at night.
               Bb                 Cm
 Somebody's supposed to fall in love.

Chorus:
  Bb                Cm              Ab        Bb      Cm         Ab
 Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait.
  Bb            Cm           Ab        Bb        Cm         Bb
 You'll be excited just to see me someday. Everything's ok.

Bridge: Bb Cm G

         Ab      Bb        Cm       G
 Love, don't forget to bleed so slowly.
  Ab                 Bb              Cm             G
 Haunted hearts we melt over the fabric of your floor.
      Ab                Bb                   Bm-
 I'm holdin' her just like she's gold, but
 Cm                          G          Ab
 I've been running from the sun. Oh no, no.
            Bb             Cm       G
 And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you,
  Ab         Bb                     Cm       G
 I'm- I'm hoping that God looks away this time.
  Ab                  Bb     Cm
 Why would I let you go?

Outro:
 Bb                 Cm              Ab        Bb       Cm        Ab
 Tear this place apart until you find me hiding, silently I wait.
  Bb           Cm            Ab       Bb          Cm         Ab
 You'll be excited just to see me someday. Everything's ok. 
 Bb      Cm
 Yeah- -last strum-

I’m so happy this song is on here now! finally I can play the song I cry myself to sleep to!

fern

the F7 in verse 3 should be a Gb, but otherwise great chords for a fantastic song!

finch

idk if anyone was having trouble with this, but the picking/strumming i do is the c string once and then i strum both the e and a strings twice

levispotentialwife

-2 is the easiest imo
