[Verse 1]
Em7/B
Our legs begin to break
D
We've walked this path for far too long
Cadd2
My lungs, they start to ache
D
But still we carry on
Em7/B
I'm choking on my words
D
Like I got a noose around my neck
Cadd2
I can't believe it's come to this
D
I can't believe it's come to this
Em7/B
And dear, I fear
D
That this ship is sinking
Cadd2 D
[Chorus]
Em7/B
I won't give up on you
D
These scars won't tear us apart
Cadd2
So don't give up on me
D
It's not too late for us
Em7/B D
And I'll save you from yourself
Cadd2 D
And I'll save you from yourself
[Verse 2]
Em7/B
Our legs begin to break
D
We've walked this path for far too long
Cadd2
My lungs begin to ache
D
But still we carry on
Em7/B
I'm choking on my words
D
Like I got a noose around my neck
Cadd2
(I can't believe it's come to this)
D
(I can't believe it's come to this)
Em7/B
I'm not coming home tonight
D
I'm not coming home tonight
Cadd2 D
('Cause dear I fear,) dear I fear
Em7/B
I'm not coming home tonight
D Cadd2
I'm not coming home tonight
D
'Cause dear I fear, This ship is sinking
Em7/B
Is there hope for us?
D
Can we make it out alive?
Cadd2 D
I can taste the failure on your lips
Em7/B
Is there hope for us?
D
Can we make it out alive?
Cadd2 D
I can taste the failure
[Verse 3]
Em7/B
Close your eyes
D
There's nothing we can do
Cadd2 D Em7/B D
But sleep in this bed that we made for our seeeeeeeeelves
Cadd2
You're trapped in your past
D
Like it's six feet under
[Chorus]
Em7/B
I won't give up on you
D
These scars won't tear us apart
Cadd2
So don't give up on me
D
It's not too late for us
Em7/B D
I'll save you from yourself
Cadd2 D
I'll save you from yourself
Em7/B D
I'll save you from yourself
Cadd2 D
I'll save you from yourself
Em7/B
Try to numb the pain
With alcohol and pills
D
But it won't repair your trust
Cadd2
You can't stand on two fucking feet
D
With a substance as a crutch
[Outro]
Em7/B D
I won't give up
Cadd2 D
I won't give up on you (We'll play this symphony)
Em7/B D
I won't give up
Cadd2 D
I won't give up on you (We'll play this symphony of sympathy)
