Em                          C                G 
It wasn't one big blow that brought our love down 
         Em                   C              G 
It was a hairline cracks that took it to the ground 
           Em            C 
Just kept creeping over time 
G 
Spreading like wildfire 
          Em                C                  G     
It wasn't one big blow that brought our love down 


Am                      C  
Ooooo you didn't wanna see 
                   G                         D 
You didn't wanna believe the dreams getting colder 
Am                             C 
Ooooo we begged the truth to bend 
                  G 
It's easier to pretend 
                             D 
You only see it when you're sober 


Em              C                  G 
Yeahh, You only wake up when it's over 
Em       C                  G 
You only wake up when it's over 


Em                          C            G 
There was so much love too, I didn't realize 
          Em              C             G 
There was so much love we couldn't recognize 
              Em         C 
Cause you can only get a clear view 
          G 
When it's fading in the wind 
          Em                   C           G 
There was so much love too, we didn't realize 

Am                      C  
Ooooo you didn't wanna see 
                   G                         D 
You didn't wanna believe the dreams getting colder 
Am                             C 
Ooooo we begged the truth to bend 
                  G 
It's easier to pretend 
                             D 
You only see it when you're sober 


Em              C                  G 
Yeahh, You only wake up when it's over 
Em       C                  G 
You only wake up when it's over
