[Verse 1]
    Cadd4             Am7         Cadd4            Am
The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight
Cadd4               Am7         C/G             G
Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time
    Cadd4           Am7            Cadd4           Am7
And I am here still waiting though I still have my doubts
Cadd4        Am7                  C/G             G
I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out
 
 
[Chorus]
             C                C/G     G
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breaaaaathing
              Am7                C/G     G
With a broken heart that's still beaaaaaating
       C              C/G     G
In the pain, there is heeaaaaaling
        Am7         C/G     G
In your name I find meeeeaaaning
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Cadd4               Am7         Cadd4         Am7
The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head
  Cadd4               Am7             C/G         G
I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead
  Cadd4            Am7        Cadd4      Am7
I still see your reflection inside of my eyes
Cadd4                  Am7      C/G                         G
That are looking for a purpose,   they're still looking for life
 
[Chorus]
             C                C/G     G
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breaaaaathing
              Am7                C/G     G
With a broken heart that's still beaaaaaating
       C                            C/G     G
In the pain (in the pain), is there heeaaaaaling
        Am7                        C/G     G
In your name (in your name) I find meeeeaaaning
 
 
[Bridge]
               Cadd4         Am7
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
            Cadd4         C/G
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
            Cadd4         C
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
           C/G             G
I'm barely   holdin' on to you
 
            C   G6add11/B Am7
I'm hangin' on another    day
C/G     F/C          G6add11/B Am7
Just to see what you throw my  way
        C/G     C         G6add11/B Am7
And I'm hanging on to the words youuuu say
    C/G       F/C       C/G
You said that I will be OK
 
 
[Verse 3]
    Cadd4                Am7     Cadd4         Am
The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone
  Cadd4            Am7                 C/G           G
I may have lost my way now, haven't forgotten my way home
 
 
[Chorus]
             C                C/G     G
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breaaaaathing
              Am7                C/G     G
With a broken heart that's still beaaaaaating
       C                            C/G     G
In the pain (in the pain), there is heeaaaaaling
        Am7                        C/G     G
In your name (in your name) I find meeeeaaaning
 
 
[Outro]
               Cadd4         Am7
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
            Cadd4         C/G
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
            Cadd4         C
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
           C/G             G
I'm barely   holdin' on to you
 
            Cadd4         Am7
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
            Cadd4         C/G
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
            Cadd4         C
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
           C/G             G
I'm barely   holdin' on to you
