Strum
D-DU-UDU
Any  second I would sing  you to sleep
 With kind  words in mind and hearts on the sleeve
 Leave nothing  to chance and everything  behind
Second  chances pave the way  to broken hearts
This  is the moment where I tell you that I'm falling apart
 And I'm stuck  in reverse between the same  damn lies
Oh  no,  there I go,  optimistic  to a fault
 Go home,  you can never  go again
When  anything at all  is anything but you
 I want nothing my dear
 This always ends in tears
 You were my everything in all
 And now my everywhere but here
 This always ends  in tears
Second  chances pave the way  to broken hearts
This  is the moment where I tell you that I'm falling apart
 And I'm stuck  in reverse between the same  damn lies
We're  tossing pennies, making wishes to make  it right
 Another lonely day another lonely night
And  I would give anything if you would only pick  up the phone
Oh  no,  there I go,  optimistic  to a fault
 Go home,  you can never  go again
When  anything at all  is anything but you
 I want nothing my dear
 This always ends in tears
 You were my everything in all
 And now my everywhere but here
 This always ends  in tears
