Intro: G5--A5--B5--(x2)
Verse 1:
G5
Tell me girl what were you thinking?
Hit me with something that will make this worth my time
B5
Take it back, take it all back now
Every promise I made was just another mistake with you
G5
Tell the truth if you think that you can take it
A5
But I know, you wont
B5
I never felt so all alone
But when it was safe I turned my back and the blade came through
Refrain:
G5
And I can barely breathe And I can barely breathe
And I can barely breathe
Chorus:
G5A5B5
Stand on top of the roof top wondering Is it good? Yea it's good for jumping
G5A5B5
Take back every word you said Cause I can barely breathe
(and I can barely breathe)
Verse 2:
G5
Tell me now can you still taste him?
Cause you know you'll never wash your hands of this
B5
Take it back, take it all back now
Every drunken kiss that landed on his lips from you
G5
Make a move if you think that you can make it
A5
But I know, you wont
B5
I never felt so all alone
But when it was safe I turned my back and the blade came through

Because you are the reason I'd hit the ground
G5D/F#E5D5
You could be the one that breaks me
