Note the different chords between the two choruses
 
Am7 chord can also be played as C chord (the piano is only playing notes E and G)
 
[Verse 1]
   Am       G
My only one
   Am7         D
My smoking gun
   Am           G
My eclipsed sun
          Am7           D
This has broken me down
   Am            G
My twisted knife
   Am7             D
My sleepless night
   Am            G
My winless fight
           Am7               D
This has frozen my ground
 
 
[Chorus]
Em            Am                    D         G
 Stood on the cliffside screaming, "Give me a reason"
Em              Am              D        G
 Your faithless love's the only hoax I believe in
Am              G             Am7          D
 Don't want no other shade of blue but you
Am        G              Am7            D
 No other sadness in the world would do
 
 
[Verse 2]
   Am            G
My best laid plan
     Am7             D7
Your sleight of hand
   Am           G
My barren land
     Am7                D
I am ash from your fire
 
 
[Chorus]
Em            Am                    D         G
 Stood on the cliffside screaming, "Give me a reason"
Em              Am              D        G
 Your faithless love's the only hoax I believe in
Em             Am             D          G
 Don't want no other shade of blue but you
Em        Am             D           G
 No other sadness in the world would do
 
 
[Bridge]
Am          G                            Am7
 You know I left a part of me back in New York
              D                            Am
 You knew the hero died so what's the movie for?
             G                         C
 You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
                           D
 From when they pulled me apart
Am            G                           Am7
 You knew the password so I let you in the door
              D                                 Am
 You knew you won so what's the point of keeping score?
             G                         C
 You knew it still hurts underneath my scars
                           D
 From when they pulled me apart
                            Am
 But what you did was just as dark
G     C   D
 (Ah, ah, ah)
                    Am
 Darling, this was just as hard
G                C            D
 As when they pulled me apart
 
 
[Outro]
   G       C
My only one
   D            G
My kingdom come undone
   G          C
My broken drum
         D               G
You have beaten my heart
Em             Am             D          G
 Don't want no other shade of blue but you
Em        Am             D           G
 No other sadness in the world would do
