[Intro]

[Verse 1]

C
 I see you at the windows ill
    Am                      G
The rain it won't stop, the air is so chill
C
 I never heard the words you said
     Am                          G
The phone, it can't ring if the heart is dead
C
 You carry ‘round your box of glass
      Am                        G
With wounds so sharp that they cut too fast
C
 Runnin' when the sky comes down
  Am                          G
Growin' more cracks when you can't be found, yeah
 

[Chorus]

   F
I took your heart, and made it mine
 G
Do my best to justify it
Am
 Call it pleasure but it feels like pain
G
 So how'd we let it get this way?
       F
Your broken heart was just like mine
    G
We built these walls and hid inside 'em
Am
 I said I wouldn't let you in
G                      N.C.
 And now you know I'm paper-thin
 
 
[Post-Chorus]

F G Am
 
G                                 F   G   Am
 And now you know I'm paper-thin
G                                C
 And now you know I'm paper-thin
[Verse 2]

C
 Maybe I'll just let you down
     Am                       G
But look at those eyes, I'm thinkin' too loud
C
 Maybe I'll just bide my time
     Am                 G
So when it feels right, you can be mine, yeah
C
 Didn't know I'd be so late
  Am                 G
Drinking all night, numbing that shame
C
 Guessing I'll be careful now
     Am                      G
I'm holding your past, I'll carry you out
 
 
[Chorus]

   F
I took your heart, and made it mine
 G
Do my best to justify it
Am
 Call it pleasure but it feels like pain
G
 So how'd we let it get this way?
       F
Your broken heart was just like mine
    G
We built these walls and hid inside 'em
Am
 I said I wouldn't let you in
G                      N.C.
 And now you know I'm paper-thin
 
 
[Post-Chorus]

F G Am 
G                                 F   G   Am
 And now you know I'm paper-thin
G
 And now you know I'm paper-thin
 
 
[Outro]

F
 Don't lie to us, don't lie to us
G
 Don't hide from us
            Am
Or anything, or anyone
                     C
It will make me spin, and now you know I'm paper-thin
F
 Don't lie to us, don't lie to us
G
 Don't hide from us
            Am
Or anything, or anyone
                     C
It will make me spin, and now you know I'm paper-thin
F
 Don't lie to us, don't lie to us
G
 Don't hide from us
            Am
Or anything, or anyone
                     C
It will make me spin, and now you know I'm paper-thin
