F A
Break down, hysteric and young
Dm
Uncomfortably numb
C
Then you sent my pain into oblivion
F A Dm
I was on the verge of breaking down
C
Then you came around
F
And not a second too late
[Verse 1]
F Am Dm C Bb F
F
Well, give two fingers to the person that I used to be
Am
You shook the noose, slipped my head loose
And now that boy is history
Bb
And you see that I knew better, yeah, I knew better
C
Than to refuse your hand, you rescued me from myself
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
Oh, just slip the noose
C# C
Untie the rope from my wrists
Bb
I was about to let go
'Til I knew you existed
[Chorus]
F A
Break down, hysteric and young
Dm
Uncomfortably numb
C
Then you sent my pain into oblivion
F A Dm
I was on the verge of breaking down
C
Then you came around
F
And not a second too late
[Verse 2]
F Am Dm C Bb F
Well, loneliness is hell and you're alone
Am
But I can tell you that it's everything you need
Because it brought you back to me
Bb
And now you see that I knew better, yeah, I knew better
C
Than to refuse your hand, you rescued me from myself
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
Oh, just slip the noose
C# C
Untie the rope from my wrists
Bb
I was about to let go
'Til I knew you existed
[Chorus]

Break down, hysteric and young

Uncomfortably numb
