Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Do do do doooo 
Bm                F#m7           Bm          F#m7     Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Come on my little ruin won’t you open up and let us in? 
Bm                F#m7       Bm          F#m7     Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Time has not been kind but you're still standing here 
G                                           Bm 
Leave a light on in your window, won’t you let me see a sign? 
G                                           Bm 
It’s gonna take more than smoke and mirrors now for me this time 

Bm                  F#m7             Bm        F#m7             Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Come on, my little sorrow, won’t you sing yourself a different song? 
Bm              F#m7            Bm        F#m7      Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
The melody that made you is now a worn-out sing-along 
G                               Bm 
Everybody’s looking at you, but I can’t stand to watch 
G                             Bm 
I’ve seen this scene come and go too much 

A                                    Em7             A 
And oh, how you struggle through the hours, way-yeah-eah 
A                        Em7           A 
your sorrow leading the way, hay-yeah-eah 
A                                    Em7                              G 
And as you stood there among the cowards... you were letting them win 

                   Bm             A                   G 
But I’m not gonna stand aside and watch them tear you up 
                           Bm                     A               G 
no I’m not, cause you're better than they are and I can’t say it enough... 
                               Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
that’s enough "what are you doing?" 

Bm                F#m7           Bm             F#m7      Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Come on my little ruin won’t you build yourself back up again? 
Bm                               F#m7           Bm      F#m7     Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Won’t you take the time you were given, you promised it to yourself 
G                                         Bm 
You could stand among the best of them if you could hold your own 
G                                      Bm 
But no-one's gonna do it for you now, but you and you alone 

A                                    Em7             A 
And oh, how you struggle with your power, way-yeah-eah 
A                                Em7             A 
And keep your back tight to the wall, hay-yeah-eah 
A                                    Em7                                G 
And as you were counted among the cowards ...they didn’t see you at all 

                        Bm              A                G 
Now you're caught on a rising wave, and I can’t get you off 
                   Bm             A                   G 
But I’m not gonna stand aside and watch them tear you up 
                           Bm                           A                    
No, I’m not, cause you're better than they are, you're better than they are 
        G 
You're better than they are, you're better than they are 
        Bm                       A               G 
you're better than they are, and I can’t say it enough 
                              Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
that’s enough "what are you do-------ing?"  
              Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
"what are you do-------ing?" 

Bm                F#m7           Bm                 F#m7       Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
Come on my little ruin won’t you tell me where the feeling’s gone? 
Bm                   F#m7                Bm            F#m7     Bm F#m7 Bm F#m7 
There's nothing lost between us, you can come back anytime you want
