F, Dm x 2
F D
You trembled like you'd seen a ghost
F D
And I gave in
F D F D
I lack the things you need the most, you said where have you been
F D
You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide
F D
I wonder why
F D
I remind you of the days you poured your heart into
F D
But you never tried
Dm
I've fallen from grace
F
Took a blow to my face
Bb
I've loved and I've lost
C (hold)
I've loved and I've lost
Bb Dm F Bb
Explosions...on the day you wake up needing somebody
Bb Dm
And you've learned
F
It's okay to be afraid
Bb F
But it will never be the same
Dm F Dm
It will never be the same

F Dm
You left my soul bleeding in the dark
F Dm
So you could be king
F Dm
The rules you set are still untold to me
F Dm
And I lost my faith in everything
Dm
The nights you could cope
F
Your intentions were gold
Bb
But the mountains will shake
C
I need to know I can still make
Bb Dm F Bb
Explosions...on the day you wake up needing somebody
Bb Dm
And you've learned
F
It's okay to be afraid
Bb F
But it will never be the same
Dm F Dm
It will never be the same
Dm F
And as the floods move in
Gm
And your body starts to sink
Bb
I was the last thing on your mind
Dm
I know you better than you think
C
Cause it's simple darling
Gm
I gave you a warning
Bb Dm
Now everything you own is falling from the sky in pieces
F Gm
So watch them fall with you, in slow motion
Bb
I pray that you will find peace of mind
Dm
And I'll find you another time
C Gm
I'll love you, another time
Bb Dm F Bb
Explosions...on the day you wake up needing somebody
Bb Dm
And you've learned
F
It's okay to be afraid
Bb F
But it will never be the same
Dm F Dm
It will never be the same
