[Verse 1]
Em
I remember years ago
G
Someone told me I should take
D
Caution when it comes to love
C
I did
Em
And you were strong and I was not
G
My illusion, my mistake
D
I was careless, I forgot
C
I did
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
     C
And now when all is done
                     D
There is nothing to say
                               C
You have gone and so effortlessly
 
You have won
                  D
You can go ahead, tell them
 
[Chorus]
                 Em
Tell them all I know now
                   G
Shout it from the rooftops
                  D
Write it on the skyline
               C
All we had is gone now
                 Em
Tell them I was happy
                G
And my heart is broken
                  D
All my scars are open
                  C
Tell them what I hoped would be
        Em          G
Impossible, impossible
        D            C
Impossible, impossible
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Falling out of love is hard
G
Falling for betrayal is worse
D
Broken trust and broken hearts
C
I know, I know
Em
Thinking all you need is there
G
Building faith on love and words
D
Empty promises will wear
C
I know, I know
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
     C
And now when all is done
                     D
There is nothing to say
                                     C
And if you're done with embarrassing me
 
On your own
                  D
You can go ahead, tell them
 
[Chorus]
                 Em
Tell them all I know now
                   G
Shout it from the rooftops
                  D
Write it on the skyline
               C
All we had is gone now
                 Em
Tell them I was happy
                G
And my heart is broken
                  D
All my scars are open
                  C
Tell them what I hoped would be
        Em          G
Impossible, impossible
        D            C
Impossible, impossible
 
[Verse 3]
Em
I remember years ago
G
Someone told me I should take
D
Caution when it comes to love
C
I did
 
[Chorus]
                 Em
Tell them all I know now
                   G
Shout it from the rooftops
                  D
Write it on the skyline
               C
All we had is gone now
                 Em
Tell them I was happy
                G
And my heart is broken
                  D
All my scars are open
                  C
Tell them what I hoped would be
        Em          G
Impossible, impossible
        D            C
Impossible, impossible
        Em          G
Impossible, impossible
        D            C
Impossible, impossible

These chords sound very much like Shontelle's version, which is different from James Arthur's cover!
