[Verse 1]
Bm                  D
   I've been here before
Bm                  D
   But always hit the floor
     G                
I've spent a lifetime running
      F#
And I always get away
         G
But with you I'm feeling something
     F#
That makes me want to stay
Bm                  D
   I'm prepared for this
Bm                  D
   I never shoot to miss
      G
But I feel like a storm is coming
             F#
If I'm gonna make it through the day
             G
Then there's no more use in running
        F#
This is something I gotta face
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm      D       G
   If I risk it all
Bm           D        F#
   Could you break my fall?
[Chorus]
         Bm             A
How do I live? How do I breathe?
                G              A
When you're not here I'm suffocating
               Bm                   A
I want to feel love, run through my blood
           G                        F#
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
    Em                    F#
For you I have to risk it all
                           Bm     D
Cause the writing's on the wall
[Verse 2]
Bm                     D
   A million shards of glass
Bm                       D
   That haunt me from my past
       G
As the stars begin to gather
        F#
And the light begins to fade
         G
When all hope begins to shatter
          F#
Know that I won't be afraid
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm      D       G
   If I risk it all
Bm           D        F#
   Could you break my fall?
[Chorus]
         Bm             A
How do I live? How do I breathe?
                G               A
When you're not here I'm suffocating
               Bm                   A
I want to feel love, run through my blood
           G                        F#
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
    Em                    F#
For you I have to risk it all
                            Bm     D 
Cause the writing's on the wall
[Bridge: Instrumental]
                     Bm     D
The writing's on the wall
G      A
G      A
[Chorus]
         Bm             A
How do I live? How do I breathe?
                G                A
When you're not here I'm suffocating
               Bm                   A
I want to feel love, run through my blood
           G                        F#
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
         Bm             A
How do I live? How do I breathe?
                G               A
When you're not here I'm suffocating
               Bm                   A
I want to feel love, run through my blood
           G                        F#
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
    Em                    F#
For you I have to risk it all
                           Bm
Cause the writing's on the wall
