Breaking Me Down

[Intro] C  Em  Am  Am
        C  Em  Am  Am

[First Part]

C        Em
  I’m so numb
Am
If you cut my arm off
C          Em
I wouldn’t know
Am
Lately I’m scared of myself
C            Em Am
I don’t show it
C       Em      Am
 I don’t show it

[Second Part]

C          Em
  What are drugs?
Am
If not a bump in the road?
C    Em      Am
I’ve become restless
              C     Em
I tend not to sleep anymore
Am
But
C  Em
Anymore
Am
But

[Chorus 1]

Continues after the ad
  C             Em
I guess I’m the problem
   Am
If I’m always hurting
C                Em              
Scared what I’ll find If I pull 
        Am
back the curtain
C           Em           Am
Mom said to dad that she hopes that 
i figure it out
C          Em    Am
‘Cause I’m older now

Breaking me down

( C  Em  Am )
( C  Em  Am )

[Third Part]

C               Em
And I’m wrong a lot
Am
Still so defensive
C              Em
It’s what I’ve become
Am
'Til I neglect all the ones that I 
love
C       Em      Am
Oh, the ones I love

[Chorus 2]

C                    Em
And I’ve noticed the pattern
Am
Of everyone leaving
C                  Em
Happens when I open up with my 
feelings
Am
Took me a while
C     Em
But I think that I’m over it now
Am
I don’t know how
C      Em
Breaking me-
C         Em
I hate to admit
Am
But I liked taller buildings
C            Em
And big open spaces
Am
Without any ceilings
C           Em
But I can’t imagine
Am
Myself having figured it out
C          Em    Am
‘Cause I’m older now

Breaking me down

( C  Em  Am )

C        Em  Am
Breaking me down
C        Em  Am
Breaking me down
C        Em  Am
Breaking me down
C        Em  Am
Breaking me down

[Outro] C  Em  Am
