Tom: A
Introdução:
Am
There's a hot hard hurt burning under her skin
And it pricks her like thorns and it's needles and pins
Am D
And I'm paying in pain, it's the cost of the high
Am D
Till the weight of the secret and the weight of the lie
Am D
Makes my heart want to burst, feel the ache as time goes by
Am D
Getting better and worse, getting better and worse
Am D
And there's a screw that I tighten as I dream of the kiss
Am D
And it twists and it cuts me and you know what it is?
F G
It's a fragment of love from a splintering heart
F G
And it tears her apart, yeah, but not as much as this
Am D Am D
So you save up your tears for the moments alone
Am D Am D
Till the splinters you gather leave you glass-hard and numb
Gm Eb7M Dm Cm
And the same sun is shining on the old and the young
Gm Eb7M Dm Cm
On the saints and the sinners, on the weak and the strong
Gm Eb7M Gm Dm
And there's a burning and freezing and a cross for a kiss
Gm Cm Eb F
So she learns to stop dreaming and you know how it is
Gm Eb7M Gm Dm
With these fragments of love and this splintering heart
Gm Cm Eb F Gm
With the fragments and this splintering heart
