         Dm             Am
I'd give anything but I won't give up on you
        A#                    Gm
I'd say anything, but not goodbye
       Dm                            Am
I will run with your changes and I'm always
on your side
            Gm                    Am
And there's not a word I've ever heard that would
 A#
make me change my mind

Chorus:
F                     Gm
Words they'll try to shake you
                A#
Don't let them break you
              F
Or stop your world from turning
F                         Gm
When words keep you from feeling good
             A#                    F
Use them as firewood and let them burn

Like stones in your pocket
People try to wear you down
Someone always wants to take the love you've found
So let's run with these changes
And I want you by my side
And there's not a word that I've ever heard
That could make me change my mind

Chorus

D#   A#   F
Let them burn
D#   A#   F
Let them burn

       C          Dm       C
Underneath every word somebody's heart's been
  A#  D# A# F
broken
         C       Dm        C      Gm  Am A#
With or without words we try to forgive

Chorus:
Words, they'll try to shake us
Don't let them break us
Or stop our world from turning
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let 'em burn

Words, they'll try to shake you
Don't let them break you
Or stop your world, stop your world from turning
'round
When words keep you from feeling good
Use them as firewood and let 'em burn

Let them burn
Let them burn
