China

Intro: C
Verse 1:
         C              G      F
She's as distant as the winter sun,
        C                G         
More consistent than the beat of a 
F
drum
         C               G        
All this time she's been hiding 
  Am                 G
her weakness away from me

Verse 2:
         C               G        
Then one day I touched a nerve by 
   F
mistake
            C            G        
Pressed too hard and she started 
   F
to shake
      C           G          Am  
Every time that I go there I know
                         G
 there's so much she can take,
(G)
before she breaks

Chorus:
[NC]            C       (G) F       
          C         (G) F
She breaks like China,        She 
breaks like China
(G) C              (G)  F      
The longer we take, the bigger 
        (G)      C       (G) F
we break when we find out

Verse 3:
         C                G     F
I keep a close eye on the way I act

     C               G           
Even when I start to see all the 
F
cracks
       C         G         Am    
I give nothing away but expect 
               G
her to stay with me

Verse 4:
         C                  
When she worked out where my 
 G        F
weakness lay
        C               G         
And she wouldn't stop until I gave
  F
 way
      C             G              
Every time that she goes there she 
Am                          G
knows there's so much I can take,
(G)
before I break

Chorus:
[NC]         C       (G) F          
    C               (G) F
I break like China,        I break 
like China
(G) C              (G)  F      
The longer we take, the bigger 
        (G)      C       (G) F
we break when we find out

Middle 8:
     G
The stronger we act, the longer we 
crack,
There's only so much we can take 
till we start to break

Solo:  C    (G) F      C  (G) F

    (G) C   (G)   F   Em   Dm

Verse 5:
           C               G  
We're constructed from the same 
     F
design
       C                   G      
With a heart that makes no sense 
      F
to the mind
       C         G          Am   
We can keep it together but 
                        G
pressure and time have their way

Verse 6:
        C                G      F
For the things we try to keep inside
           C              G       
Find their way out in the dark of 
    F
the night
       C            G       Am   
All it takes is the tiniest touch
                     G
 and there's only so much, before we
 break

Chorus:
[NC]          C       (G) F         
      C              (G) F
We break like China,        We break
 like China
(G) C              (G)  F      
The longer we take, the bigger 
        (G)      C        (G) F
we break when we find out
(G) C       (G) F    C      
    China            China  
(G) F                C     (G) 
       We break like China
