D
if i thought it would help i would drive this car into the sea
if the fire and smoke and explosions could speak for me

if the words that i used to try to explain how something inside of me started to break
G A
ah, but one by one my words just got in the way
D A G A
G A D
how many nights did i crash against the waves with my head going under
G A D
how many days did i spend trying to see it your way, if you try you remember
Bm A G A Bm
i changed and changed and kept on saying "one of these days something inside's gonna break"
A G A
and we won't get it back now, baby (something's gonna break)

if i thought it would help i would carve your name into my heart
Bm A G A
and if i thought it would help i would carve your name into my heart

we were living proof, one by one we drifted away
A D A G A
one by one we drifted away
[Verse 2]

time after time there were things that would scare me to tears, while you called me haunted
G A D
i paced around the bed where you laid

one of these days, baby, something… (something's gonna break)

Bm A G A
if i thought it would help i would carve your name into my heart

and if i thought it would help i would carve your name into my heart

all of the things that i tried to explain how something inside of me started to break
G A
we were living proof, one by one we drifted away

…drifted away, drifted away… one by one and day by day
G A D
i became the dark in the places where you live

if i thought it would help i would carve your name into my heart
Bm A G A
and if i thought it would help i would carve your name into my heart

we were living proof, one by one we drifted away

one by one we drifted away

we were living proof
A D
one by one we drifted away

The beginning of the first verse definitely goes back and forth between D and G before the main progression starts, but otherwise this is very good

My only comment is that G and A are played as barre chords in this one, in the 3rd and 5th frets, respectively. Thanks for the great work.

As noted before, there is a G in the intro part, and he goes to G when he says "words" before the first A in the first verse.
Also, in the chorus, during the "All of these things that I tried to explain..." part, it goes D-A-Bm-G.
