Protocol

    D                      D7
I remember the evenin' you said you 
were leavin'
G                            Bb
That's when I knew I had lost
   D
No room for forgiveness
    D7                      G     
Suitcase, frames, pictures, placed
                Bb
 in the back of your car


[Pre-Chorus]
  Em
I won't tell my parents
      G
How I fucked up perfection
    Bm                   A
And selfishly put myself first
  Em                 G
A future of stories, kiss you good 
mornings
D                      A
Gone and it's what I deserve


[Chorus]
                 G        D
I can't find the words to say
             Bm              A
When someone asks how you've been
                 G     D      Bm 
I don't know the protocol for 
                A
fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart


[Verse 2]
        D
When my friends hear the rumours

        D7
They'll tell me they knew that
G                          Bb
You were bad news from the start
      D
Every bar they take me
    D7
And try to matchmake me
     G                        Bb
With someone who doesn't come close,
 no


[Pre-Chorus]
    Em                            
You won't tell your mother 'cause 
G
she'll tell your father
    Bm                         
And that's just one more broken 
 A
heart (One more broken heart)
  Em                 G
A future of stories, adventures, and
 journeys
D                        A
On fire and falling apart


[Chorus]
                 G        D
I can't find the words to say
             Bm         A
Someone asks how you've been
               G     D      Bm   
Don't know the protocol for 
              A
fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart
          G     D
Call your answerphone
                 Bm     A
Hope that you're not at home
               G     D      Bm   
Don't know the protocol for 
              A
fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart

[Bridge]
         D                     D7
When I'm all by myself and the drink
 doesn't help
         G
Take 'em down from the shelf
    Bb                          
And I'm reminded I keep fighting 
 D
walls in my head
         D7                        G
                     N.C.
With the miles of regret, 'cause I 
had every letter, but now


[Chorus]
                 G        D
I can't find the words to say
             Bm         A
Someone asks how you've been
               G     D      Bm   
Don't know the protocol for 
              A
fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart
          G     D
Call your answerphone
                 Bm     A
Hope that you're not at home
               G     D      Bm   
Don't know the protocol for 
                     A    G D
fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart
 Bm                        A
(Fixin' a, fixin' a broken heart)
