Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]A beating heart gets thrown
out of a car in the [C]dark[G]
I find it and I check it for scars
and make sure it's [C]clean
Then I go [G]back inside
'Cause there's nothing
for us here in [C]the night
[G]Just a helicopter buzzing nearby,
ru[C]ining my sleep

[Verse 2]
[C]
But I [G]can feel [Em]a strong vibration when I look at you,
[C]you[G][C][G][C]
Everybody [G]knows [Em]my failures,
well I know theirs [C]too, [G]too[C]
[G]

[Verse 3]
Is this what it takes
What it takes to be impossibly [C]great?
'Cause if it is then I [G]think maybe the less,
[Em]the less[G]
[C]The less I knew the better
Please [G]just be kind when I drag myself
out on through the [C]line
'Cause in the end I think that may[G]be the less,
[Em]the [G]less
The [C]less I knew the better
Now that [G]heart

[Verse 4]
and me
At first we get on so splen[C]didly
[G]And we called you but you
never seemed free
So we just drove [C]around for a while
[G]But then the poetry of silence
It has this way of catching
me and that heart
[C]And it rises to tell us that all [G]of this is grief
and everything we love is [C]a shame

[Verse 5]
[C]
So [G]I open up my [Em]window and I throw that heart through,
[C]thr[G]oug[C]h
Now everybody [G]knows [Em]my failures,
well I know theirs [C]too, too
[G]

[Verse 6]
So is this what it takes
What it takes to be supposedly [C]great?
'Cause if it is then I think may[G]be the less,
[Em]the less
[G]The[C] less I knew the better
Please [G]just be kind when I drag
myself out onto [C]the night
'Cause in the end I think that [G]maybe [Em]the less,
[G]the less
The [C]less I knew the better
The less I knew the [G]better

[Verse 7]
[Em]Ooh, [B]oo [G]h, oo [C]h[G][F][Em]
Ooh, [G]ooh, [F]oo[G][Em][G]
[Em]h
[G]
