Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x2
This  time I need to know
 I really must be told  - If it's over
It's  up to you you know
 The things you want to hold  - Are in pieces
Crashing  down
Crashing  down again
Crashing  down
Crashing  down my friends
I've  got to move it on
 I've got to sing my song  - While I still can
Dispatch  the last alarms
 Hand out the last few charms  - There's no surprises
Only  love
Only  love can win
Crashing  down
Crashing  down again
Only  love
 Yeah only  love will win
Crashing  down
Crashing  down again
 x2
This  time I need to know
 I really must be told  - If it's over
I've  lived my life alone
 My every step foretold  - To never linger
 And yet  it haunts me so
 What are we letting go  - Our spell is broken
Crashing  down
Crashing  down my friends
Crashing  down
Crashing  down again
Only  love
 Yeah only  love will
Be  enough
 Yeah only  love will win
 x2
For  every chemical
 You trade a piece of your soul  - With no return
And  who you think you know
 Doesn't know you at all  - Their drain is needless
Someday  we'll wave hello
 And wish we'd never waved goodbye  - To this romance
We'll  drink up every line
 And shoot up every word  - Till there's no more
Crashing  down
Crashing  down my friends
Only  love
Only  love can win
So  cry these tears we'll cry  as all
 We've held  so long to fall  apart
 As the curtain  falls we bid  you all goodnight...
