Strum
D-DU-UDU
I'm  still alive but I'm barely  breathing
 Just prayed  to a god that  I don't believe in
 Cos I  got time while she  got freedom
 Cos when  a heart breaks no it don't  break even
 Her best  days will be some  of my worst
 She finally  met a man that's gonna  put her 1st
 While I'm  wide awake she's no trouble sleeping
 Cos when  a heart breaks no it don't  break even,  even, no
What  am I supposed  to do when the best  part of me was always  you, and
What  am I supposed  to say when I'm all  choked up that you're  OK, yeah
I'm falling  to pieces,  yeah
I'm falling  to pieces
 They say  bad things happen for  a reason
 But no  wise words gonna stop  the bleeding
 Cos she's  moved on while I'm  still grieving
 And when  a heart breaks no it don't  break even (even,  no)
What  am I supposed  to do when the best  part of me was always  you, and
What  am I supposed  to say when I'm all  choked up that you're  OK
I'm falling  to pieces yeah
I'm  falling to pieces  yeah
I'm falling  to pieces
 (One still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling  to pieces
 (Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
 You got his heart  and my heart and none  of the pain
You  took your suitcase, I  took the blame.
 Now I'm tryna  make sense of what little  remains,  oh
 Cos you left  me with no love, no love to my name.
I'm  still alive but  I'm barely breathing
 Just prayed  to a god that  I don't believe in
 Cos I  got time while she  got freedom
 Cos when  a heart breaks no it don't...
No,  it don't break
 No, it don't  break even,  no!
What  am I supposed  to do when the best  part of me was always  you, and
What  am I supposed  to say when I'm all  choked up that you're  OK
I'm falling  to pieces yeah
 (Oh, I'm falling, I'm falling... yeah)
I'm  falling to pieces  yeah
I'm falling  to pieces
 (One still in love while the other one's leaving)
I'm falling  to pieces
 (Cos when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven)
Oh,  it don't break even,  no, oh
Oh,  it don't break even,  no, oh
Oh,  it don't break even,  no, oh
