Tom : Em
Em G C D Bm C
[Verse]
Em
From the fire in your words
Bm
To the dagger in your eye
Am
I just have to lay my body down
Em C D
Go and lay my body down
Em
I pretend to be asleep
D
But I know you hear me cry
Am
I just have to lay my body down
Em C D
Go and lay my body down
G
But if I
Bm
Really want a change
Em
Then I must admit
D C
That I'm the one to blame
[Chorus]
Em
If I could break away
G
Cut the cord
C
For worse or better
D
If I could turn the page
At last and say
C D
Goodbye forever
Em
But on the other side
G
Of yesterday
C
Beyond the heartache
D
What if all I am
Without the pain
C
Is empty hearted
Em
I could break away
Bm
I could break away
C
Oh, anything is better than this
Bm
I know
C D
Anything is better
