“Break”
Em C C7 x2
Verse 1
Em C C7
Let go of the mystery
Em C C7
And retrace all the steps where you’ve been
Em C C7
And forget all the history
Em C C7
And start over again
Pre-Chorus
D C
For as you can see, it’s up to me
D C (riff 1)
For as you can see, it’s all on me
Chorus
Em C G D
I can’t erase it, because it’s with me everyday
Em C G A (riff 2)
The strangest feeling that never goes away
Em C G D
Now I have to face it, because I can’t walk away
Em C G A
And I’m determined to go until I break
Em C C7 x2
Verse 2
Let go all confusion
And forget the hate in their eyes
And convince yourself it’s illusion
Find a reason to survive
PRE-CHORUS

C Em
So maybe I can’t beat you but I choose not to be
C A G F# G (riff 3)
And maybe I don’t need you to show me how to see
C Em
What if the sky fell and time slipped away
C D D
If these are my last words then here’s what I’ll say
Pre-Chorus
Em C G D
I can’t erase it, because it’s with me everyday
Em C G A (riff 4)
The strangest feeling that never goes away
CHORUS x2
