Verse:
You lie in the grief,
You lie in the depression,
You lied in your confession,
You knew me better than this,
You lie by my side with your hand on a weapon,
Waiting for a confession,
You knew me better than this.
Pre-chorus:
We come from different towns,
And recognise the sound of giving up,
We come from different towns,
And recognise the sound of...
Chorus:
We’re giving up, we’re giving up,
But I won’t breathe another word about you,
We’re giving up, we’re giving up, woah,
And I won’t sleep without you.
Break:
[Ab, Bbm, C#, Ab]
Verse:
You lie to yourself at your own intervention,
And you’re too scared to mention,
That you’re better than this,
And you lie by my side with your head on a weapon,
And your eyes on the tension,
You knew me better than this.
Pre-chorus:
We come from different towns,
And recognise the sound of giving up,
We come from different towns,
And recognise the sound...
Chorus:
We’re giving up, we’re giving up,
But I won’t breathe another word about you,
We’re giving up, we’re giving up, woah,
And I won’t sleep without you.
We’re giving up, we’re giving up,
But I won’t breathe another word about you,
We’re giving up, we’re giving up, woah,
And I can't get enough.
Solo: (same as Pre-Chorus)
[Fm, Ab, Fm, Eb] x2
Woah,
Woah,
Woah,
Woah.
Chorus:
We’re giving up, we’re giving up,
But I won’t breathe another word about you,
We’re giving up, we’re giving up, woah,
And I won’t sleep without you.
We’re giving up, we’re giving up,
But I won’t breathe, giving up, we’re giving up,
And I won’t breathe, we’re giving up, we’re giving up,
Woah and I can’t get enough, well I can’t get enough.
That's it hope you enjoy it!
