James Morrison - Broken Strings 

Capo on first

       Am                C                   F
Let me hold you  For the last time, it's the last chance to feel again
        Am              C             F      Dm
But you broke me, now I can't feel anything
       Am                C         F
When I love you, it's so untrue, I can't even convince myself
         Am                 C                F    Dm
When I'm speaking, it's the voice of someone else

      F     G  Am    F           G          Em
Oh it tears me up. I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  F         G              Em             F              C
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Dm             Am                 C       G 
You can't play on broken strings. You can't feel anything 
          Dm                  Am            C                             G
That your heart don't want to feel, I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F                Am           C                 G
Oh the truth hurts, and lies worse   How can I give anymore
       Dm                Am       G
When I love you a little less than before

        Am     C             F                          Am           C        F    Dm
Oh what are we doing? We are turning into dust. Playing house in the ruins of us
        Am               C                  F
Running back through the fire, when there's nothing left to save
          Am               C                        F    Dm
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late

      F     G  Am    F           G          Em
Oh it tears me up. I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  F         G              Em            F               C
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Dm             Am                 C       G
You can't play on broken strings. You can't feel anything 
          Dm                  Am           C                             G
That your heart don't want to feel I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F                Am           C                 G
Oh the truth hurts, and lies worse.  How can I give anymore?
       Dm                Am        G
When I love you a little less than before

          Am                  C                  F
But we're running through the fire, when there's nothing left to save
          Am                    C              F                        Dm
It's like chasing the very last train, when we both know it's too late (too late)

          Dm            Am                  C       G
You can't play on broken strings. You can't feel anything 
          Dm                 Am             C                             G
That your heart don't want to feel, I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F                  Am          C                 G
Well the truth hurts, and lies worse. How can I give anymore
       Dm                Am       G                  Dm                Am         G
When I love you a little less than before. Oh when I love you a little less than before

       Am              C                    F                   Dm
Let me hold you for the last time  It's the last chance to feel again
