[Intro]
G C G D
[Verse]
G C
I'm a book of mistakes
G C
And it's just getting worse
G C
Every new one I make
G C
Is a rumour you heard
Bm C
'Cause these days I'm self-destructive
G
The way I love
Bm C
I push away every chance
G
'Cause it's never enough
D Am
My love, you can take the things they say
C
As the bitter truth
Am
But don't throw it all away
C D
On second hand news
[Chorus]
G C
'Cause if I just let go
G C
If my heart could choose
Em C
I would burn these bridges I've built
D
And find my way back to you
Em C
No, don't throw it all away
D
On second hand news
G C G D
[Verse]
G C
Been a broken machine
G C
Since the day you've been gone
G C
On a loop in a dream
G C
Did you think I'd move on?
Am
You can take the things they say
C
As the bitter truth
Am
But don't throw it all away
C D
On second hand news
[Chorus]
G C
'Cause if I just let go
G C
If my heart could choose
Em C
I would burn these bridges I've built
D
And find my way back to you
G C
I'd leave it all behind
G C
I've got nothing to lose
Em C
And I know you heard what you heard
D
But it doesn't mean it's true
Em C
No, don't throw it all away
D
On second hand news
[Middle 8]
Am
Crying silent tears in the next door room
Bm
'Cause everybody's here but you
C
So I wrote you out this message
D
But I stopped myself from sending it off
Am Bm C D
[Chorus]
G C
If I just let go
G C
If my heart could choose
Em C
I would burn these bridges I've built
D
And find my way back to you
G C
I'd leave it all behind
G C
I've got nothing to lose
Em C
And I know you heard what you heard
D
But it doesn't mean it's true
Em C
No, don't throw it all away
D
On second hand news
Em C
No, don't throw it all away
D
On second hand news
