Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

It must hurt your mouth to lie like that

Knowing deep down you disagree

We both tell ourselves the love is gone

Truth is it will never leave

I wish I had the words to make things right

They all get caught, my throat gets tight

Everything I do, it all seems to go so wrong

 This house of love has come tumbling down

 It could not withstand the strain

Somewhere deep down, between the rubble and the ground

 There’s love in the remains

 I can’t tell you how this hurts me so

See without you I’m half of me

So with the same mouth I’ve used to beat you down

I offer up my apologies

I wish I had the words to make things right

They all get caught, my throat gets tight

Everything I do, it all seems to go so wrong

 I wish it came down to just desire

I wish it came down to just my will

It’s true it takes one to tear down

 But it takes two to rebuild

 To rebuild
