  			Verso 1: 
C             C7 
Sitting by my window sill 
     F 
Cigarette hanging out of my mouth 
C          C7 
Smoke just disappears 
       F 
I´m in so much pain right now 
   C                     C7 
If medicine could mend a hurting heart 
   F 
Or stop someone from falling apart 
              C               C7 
That would be nice because I´m dying 
            F 
Dying for a new start 

 
          Dm 
You don´t want me anymore 
       F 
How my poor heart aches 
          C 
I don´t know what love is for 
                C7 
When it always ends in heartbreak 
         F 
But I´ll use my pain to write poetry 
F 
Lullabies to help me fall asleep 
       C 
Cos´ I haven´t been sleeping 
             C7                         F 
Since you´re no longer sleeping next to me 

Verso 2:
C 
Swimming along through life like waves 
C7                      F 
Waves that are ten feet tall 
     C                     C7 
The funny thing is I don´t know how to swim 
          F 
They come over me as I fall 
C                        C7 
After the struggle I end up on the shore 
F 
Standing there asking myself 

what it´s all for 
       C                 C7 
Then I realize I´m still standing 
         F 
After the storm 

 
          Dm 
You don´t want me anymore 
       F 
How my poor heart aches 
          C 
I don´t know what love is for 
                C7 
When it always ends in heartbreak 
         F 
But I´ll use my pain to write poetry 
F 
Lullabies to help me fall asleep 
       C 
Cos´ I haven´t been sleeping 
             C7                         F 
Since you´re no longer sleeping next to me 

Ponte:
      Dm             F        C      C7 
It´s okay not to be okay sometimes 
      Dm       F          C      C7 
Cos´ healing a heart takes time 


          Dm 
You don´t want me anymore 
       F 
How my poor heart aches 
          C 
I don´t know what love is for 
                C7 
When it always ends in heartbreak 
         F 
But I´ll use my pain to write poetry 
F 
Lullabies to help me fall asleep 
       C 
Cos´ I haven´t been sleeping 
             C7                         F 
Since you´re no longer sleeping next to me 

       C 
Cos´ I haven´t been sleeping 
             C7                         F 
Since you´re no longer sleeping next to me
