G                D               A                   Bm
...I heard songs romanticise her blood shot eyes and getting high
    G             D
They drift off on fitted sheets
      A
He'll kiss her over colgate teeth
G                D
How can I love myself
            A                    Bm
When I'm so draining to everyone else?
         G         D
And I've been told...
          A
I'm heavy to hold


[Chorus]

G           D
...They say they won't run away
     Bm                            A
"Fix You" is only pretty when it's sung by Coldplay
G
...They'll kiss me
D
Manic dream pixie
Bm                            A
Don't wanna love me 'cause it feels too risky
G        D     Bm  A
...And I understand...
              G         D
It's all I've been told...
          A
I'm heavy to hold


[Verse 2]

G           D
I hear cars pull up outside
     A                     Bm
Ring doorbells but they're never mine
G             D
...Sitcoms on VHS
      A
Laugh tracks echo the friends that left
G                    D
How can I brave this storm
            A                        Bm
When I just burn them trying to keep warm?
              G         D
It's all I've been told...
          A
I'm heavy to hold


[Chorus]

G           D
...They say they won't run away
     Bm                            A
"Fix You" is only pretty when it's sung by Coldplay
G
...They'll kiss me
D
Manic dream pixie
Bm                            A
Don't wanna love me 'cause it feels too risky
G        D     Bm  A
...And I understand...
              G         D
It's all I've been told...
          A
I'm heavy to hold


[Bridge]

G         D
...Lay me down
A              Bm
...I'm getting tired
G          D
...I'll be around
A
...If you decide
G              D
...I'm hard to love
Bm               A
...There's no denying
G                 D
...If you've had enough
A
...Thanks for trying


[Chorus]

G           D
...They say they won’t run way (they won’t run away)
     Bm                            A
"Fix You" is only pretty when it’s sung by Coldplay
G                  D
...They’ll kiss me manic dream pixie (they don’t wanna they don’t wanna love me)
Bm                           A
Don’t wanna love me cause it feels too risky
G         D    Bm   A
...And I understand...
              G        D
It’s all I’ve been told (I been told)
          Bm                 A
I’m heavy to hold (I’m heavy to hold)
          A       D
Too heavy to hold...
    A
I’m heavy...
