[Verse 1]
Bm Dmaj7 G D
Heaven is a hole in the sky
Bm Dmaj7 G A
The stars are cracks in the ceiling of night
Bm Dmaj7 G D
And I just keep watching them for a sign
Dmaj7 G
That you'll be alright
Bm Dmaj7 G D
'Cause every time there's a knock on my door
Bm Dmaj7 G A
I fall to my hands and knees on the floor
Bm Dmaj7 G D
'Cause when your wreckage washes up on my shore
Dmaj7 G
You're not like before
[Chorus 1]
Em7 G
And you'll try, to explain
D Asus2
Who's at fault for your mistakes
Em7 G
But I won't be the debris in your hurricane
Bm Dmaj7 G D
Bm Dmaj7 G D
[Verse 2]
Bm Dmaj7 G D
You used to be such a delicate kid
Bm Dmaj7 G A
A lonely fish in a sea full of squid
Bm Dmaj7 G D
So I can't blame if you're leavin' how you did
Dmaj7 G
You just fell off a grid
Bm Dmaj7 G D
'Cause heaven is a hole in the sky
Bm Dmaj7 G A
The stars are cracks in the ceiling of night
Bm Dmaj7 G D
But you can't be your own alibi
Dmaj7 G
As hard as you try
[Chorus 2]
Em7 G
I'm so tired, reframe
D Asus2
I'm singin' over and over again
Em7 G
As you try, to explain
D Asus2
Who's at fault for your mistakes

But I won't be the debris in your hurricane
Em7 G Bm Dmaj7
No, I won't be the debris in your hurricane
