Em               C 
Broken-hearted I come 
C         G                  D 
My cup is empty, my mouth is dry

See how quickly I fall

I want to cry, but I can’t

O this can’t be enough

To just say I’m sorry, to confess my fault 
Em                    C 
When I’ve hurt You so much 
C            G                    D 
And now I am asking for You to do more
