Intro: Em Cadd9 G 2x 
 
Em                        Cadd9  G 
It's never easy and you never know 
Em                             Cadd9      G 
What leaves you crying and what makes you whole 
Em                           Cadd9      G 
There ain't no way that I can hold it down 
Em                 Cadd9        G 
Falling to pieces, forever in doubt 
 
CHORUS: 
        Cadd9  G               Cadd9      G 
But it's alright, why don't you tell me again 
Em                                Cadd9       G 
How you'll still be there when the heartache ends 
        Cadd9  G                Cadd9        G  
But it's alright, why don't you tell me, my friend 
Em                                Cadd9       G 
How you'll still be there when the heartache ends 
     Em  Cadd9  G     Em        Cadd9  G 
Hold on            oh no no no 
 
Em                        Cadd9      G 
There ain't nobody who can show you how 
Em                             Cadd9    G 
To find the surface when you're underground 
Em                             Cadd9       G 
There ain't no blanket that can hide this cold 
Em                        Cadd9       G 
There ain't no memory that ever gets old 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
 
      Em 
And I move all directions 
 
To the corners and the outskirts 
          Cadd9 
While the lovers and the lonely 
 
Start to whisper all about me 
         G 
And if I stand here silent 
                             Cadd9 
I almost start to feel you fading in 
 G 
Telling me hold on cuz it's gonna be 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
 
Em                                Cadd9       G 
How you'll still be there when the heartache ends 
Em                             Cadd9      G 
Say you'll be with me when the heartache ends
