[Verse 1]
F                             Am                         C
  Just shoot me straight like whiskey, tell me you don't miss me.
                 G
Let me down with dignity go easy, Darling.
F                         Am                               C
  Cause I've been holding hope but there's nothing left to hold
                         G
So without you I'll just float
 
[Chorus]
                F                   C
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
           G                              Am
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
     G               F                              C
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
              G                                     Am
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
    G                     F
You swore your love would burn

[Verse 2]
F                      Am                         C
  You dyed your hair a new shade to color in your blank page
                   Am                  F
You still look the same, beautiful but boring
                          Am                                C
What's life like with the new flame? Bet it don't hit quite the same.
                    G
So much for needing  space
 
[Chorus]
                F                   C
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
           G                              Am
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
     G               F                              C
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
              G                                     Am
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
    G                     F
You swore your love would burn

[Bridge]
        Dm*                         Am*
There's nothing here, nothing left.    No love that's left to give.
     C*                    G*
Your bittersweet medicine    might help you to forget.
    Dm*                   Am*
You loved me in your bed,    then you left me unmended.
    C*                           G*
You broke into my heart then you kept it.
 
        Dm                          Am
There's nothing here, nothing left.    No love that's left to give.
     C                     G
Your bittersweet medicine    might help you to forget.
    Dm                    Am
You loved me in your bed,    then you left me unmended.
    C                            G
You broke into my heart then you kept it.
 
[Chorus]
                F                   C
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
           G                              Am
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
     G               F                              C
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
              G                                     Am
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
    G                     F
You swore your love would burn
 
[Outro]
                F                   C
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
           G                              Am
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
     G               F                              C
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
              G                                     Am
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
    G                     F
You swore your love would burn
 
[Coda]
    G                     F
You swore your love would burn
    G                     F
You swore your love would burn.
