Em
There was a war that summer
D
And the blood dripped down from the pulpit
C
And as much as I tried to control it
Am
I watched my heart turn black, my foundation cracked
[Verse 2]
Em
How could they bite the hands that fed them?
D
Let's not forget they were hiding under my bed then
C
If your voice was in their heads, what did you tell them?
Am
If your voice was in their heads, what did you tell them?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
Em D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
[Chorus]
C G
You were breaking my heart in two
Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two
C G Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
C G
So I could walk back down to you
Em D C
So I could walk back down to you
C G Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
[Verse 3]
Em
They took our food and money
D
Left my father to rot in the prison
C
But injustice cannot be forgiven
Am
No hallelujah please for hypocrisy
[Verse 4]
Em
Outside the ruin and the folding chair
D
I won't go in, can't trust what's there
C
You lead me in and help me see
Am
A burden lifted off of me
[Chorus]
C G
You were breaking my heart in two
Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two
C G Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
C G
So I could walk back down to you
Em D C
So I could walk back down to you
C G Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
Em D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
[Chorus]
C G
You were breaking my heart in two
Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two
C G Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
C G
So I could walk back down to you
Em D C
So I could walk back down to you
C G Em D C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
