[capo 1]


(Verse:)
[C#m]Heaven bend to take my hand

And [A]lead me through the [E]fire
        
Be the [B]long awaited [C#m]answer

To a [A]long and painful [E]fight
         
[C#m]Truth be told I've tried my best
 
But [A]somewhere along the [E]way
                                     
I got [C#m]caught up in [G#m]all there was to [A]offer
              
And the [C#m]cost was so much [B]more than I could [A]bear


(Chorus:)                        
Though I've [F#m]tried, [A]I've fallen
  
[E]I have [B]sunk so [F#m]low
     
I have [A]messed up
 
[E]Better [B]I should know
         
[F#m]So don't [A]come round here
   
And [E]tell me [B]I told you [A]so...      [g#] [b]


(same chords as the 1st verse)
We all begin with good intent
When love was raw and young
We believe that we can change ourselves
The past could be undone
But we carry on our back the burdens
Time always reveals

In the [B]lonely light of [C#m]morning

In the [F#m]wound that would not [A]heal
  
It's the [F#m]bitter taste of [A]losing every[E]thing
                         
That I've [B]held so [F#m]dear...           

(chorus chords)
[A]I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...

(verse chords)
Heaven bend to take my hand
I've nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to these I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turned their heads embarassed
Pretend that they don't see
        
That it's [C#m]one misstep

One [B]slip before you [A]know it

And [C#m]there doesn't seem a [B]way to be re[A]deemed

(chorus chords)
Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...
