Em C G D 

A charcoal heart that you can't ignore 
Because you've been burned before 
You tell me that everything that is good will end 
You were building castles in the air 
But they fell to the ground there was nothing there 
You said you'd never get so close again 

Em C G D 

And lately, it's yellow lights and you're braking 
Say you just want to wait and see it all unfold 
But baby when you find what you're seeking 
Something you can believe in you just got to go 

Chorus:
