LINKIN PARK ARRANGEMENT:


[Intro:]

Em

Em C B
Em C B

[Verse 1:]

Em
      Memories consume

Like opening the wound

I'm picking me apart again

You all assume

I'm safe here in my room

Unless I try to start again

[Pre Chorus:]

C               Am
I don't want to be the one
    C              Em 
The battles always choose
       C        Am
'Cause inside I realize
     C              Em
That I'm the one confused

[Chorus:]

  Em                      C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
   B    
Or why I have to scream.
  Em               C
I don't know why I instigate
    B
And say what I don't mean.
  Em               C
I don't know how I got this way
  B
I know it's not alright.
       C            D
So I'm breaking the habit,
    C            D
I'm breaking the habit
   Em
Tonight

[Verse 2:]

Em        D         Em
       Clutching my cure

I tightly lock the door
  D               Em
I try to catch my breath again
  D         Em
I hurt much more
     
Than any time before
  D              Em
I had no options left again

[Pre Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]

Em                         F#m
      I'll paint it on the walls
G                             Am
      'Cause I'm the one that falls
Em                      F#m
      I'll never fight again
G                        Am
      And this is how it ends

[Chorus:]

  Em                      C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
   B    
Or why I have to scream.
    Em              C
But now I have some clarity
   B
To show you what I mean.
  Em               C
I don't know how I got this way
  B
I know it's not alright.
       C            D
So I'm breaking the habit,
    C            D
I'm breaking the habit
    C            D
I'm breaking the habit 
   Em
Tonight
