  Intro:     Em        D    C


Em
 The silence comes back round again
     D                          C
 An emptiness where once were flames
         Em
 When I fell upon your shoulders 
like the rain
      D                            
 You held me down to drown beneath 
     Am
the waves
C           D
 It's over, almost over
C                         D
 This kind of passion can only end 
in pain


                   E
 Like a crown of thorns
 Bm                              
 I can't wear this love around my 
  Am
heart
                C               
 Though we've tried and failed a 
    D               E
thousand times to lift the dark
    Bm                             
 I wear the memories you leave like
   Am
 scars
           C            D
 I don't know if I can keep on 
breathing
 Am       D         Am       D  
 If I'm bleeding, bleeding from 
      E
the start

Em
 I feel that every time I breathe
     D                    C
 The oxygen is suffocating me
Em
 It's not a sacrifice we can make
     D                      
 To be the king and queen of 
      Am
heartache
C           D
 It's over, almost over


                   E

D
 Parting is a sweet sorrow
          Em         C
 But the marks only fade with time
D                         Em     
 I believe that there is life on 
    C
the other side
Am          D
 It's over, almost over

 If I'm bleeding, bleeding from
