Introduction:
G Cm
Cross my heart, broke your promise, told me lies
Why did you
G Cm
Watch me suffer, make me feel like I deserved to
Gm
Everybody takes, everybody breaks somebody's heart leaving some on their own

But this felt more like you ripping flesh from bone
D#
You made a mess out of me
Where do I begin?
F
You paid for your sins
G
Like a reckoning
Gm
You never saw coming
D# F
I'm the reaper outside your door
G
You took everything made me feel less than nothing
D# F
I'm getting what I came for
Gm
Like the sound of all the stars crashing in the dark
D# F
I said a prayer and buried your name
D# F
And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire
G
The reckoning
G Cm
I gave you more than my heart could hope for
You misused it
G Cm
Scraped up every piece that fell to the floor
When you tore through it
G
Laying me to ruin
You knew what you were doing
Cm
Leaving me to skin and bone
G
But trusting you was no one's fault but my own
Cm
You get what you give
So take your last breath
F C
Before I lay you to rest
G
Like a reckoning
Gm
You never saw coming

And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire

I should have known better than that
Bb D
I should have known all along

I should have known

But now I'm moving on

Like a reckoning
