E             F#m          D
You said I'm holdin' onto heartache
A                           E
You said I wear it like a crown
                   F#m
It's gonna drag me down
                  D       A
I'm holdin' onto heartache
                               E
You should be starin' at the sky
                       F#m
The birds just passin' by, love

Bm
The windy hell just over
A
We knew that all would change
E
Creates the strangest feelin'
                            Bm
Just slowly waitin' for the end
I still have dreams about it
A
The moment since they came
E
The moment's never shown to us
                      Bm
Because we faded into darkness

                    A
I can still hear a silence
                     E                F#m
I can still hear a clock that's tickin'

Chorus:
                           D
You said I'm holdin' onto heartache
A                           E
You said I wear it like a crown
                   F#m
It's gonna drag me down
                  D
I'm holdin' onto heartache
A                              E
You should be starin' at the sky
                       F#m
The birds just passin' by, love

               Bm      A E
Holdin' on to heartache

The nights, they change in seasons
Become the strangest days
I called you twice, but then regretted it
And changed my number
The questions that I'd ask you
"Where did it all go wrong?"
There's endless versions of the thing
That keeps me driftin' back to darkness

I can still hear your silence
I can still hear a clock that's tickin'

Chorus

                     A
You know the party's over
                           E
When you're standin' in an empty space alone
                    Bm
And time can always heal ya
                        D
If you let it make its way into your bones
                A
Nothing's ever easy
                       E
To be honest, I'm not easy on myself
                  Bm
The second that I see ya
                      D
The space between us just comes floodin' back
