Verse:
 C          Am             F          G
Shadows settle on the place, that you left.
 C              Am             F      G
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness.
 C           Am             F         G
Destroy the middle, itʼs a waste of time.
         C       Am           F        G
From the perfect start to the finish line.
       C             Am                  F        G
And if youʼre still breathing, youʼre the lucky ones.
       C              Am              F          G
ʼCause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs.
        C           Am          F G
Setting fire to our insides for fun
           C            Am              F    G
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
    G
The lovers that went wrong.

C Am F G

Verse:
 C          Am                   F      G
We are the reckless, We are the wild youth
         C             Am     F G
Chasing visions of our futures
 C       Am                F G
One day weʼll reveal the truth
              C             Am     F G
That one will die before he gets there.
       C            Am                 F         G
And if youʼre still bleeding, youʼre the lucky ones.
       C            Am               F                 G
ʼCause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone.
              C           Am          F G
Weʼre setting fire to our insides for fun.
           C                 Am                    F
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home,
         G
It was a flood that wrecked this...

Chorus:
 C  F  Am  G
          ...and you caused it...
 C  F  Am  G
          ...and you caused it...
 C  F  Am  G
          ...and you caused it...

Verse:
 C                  Am             F        G
Well Iʼve lost it all, Iʼm just a silhouette,
 C          Am               F        G
 A lifeless face that youʼll soon forget,
 C          Am             F          G
My eyes are damp from the words you left,
         C     Am             F          G
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
         C     Am             F          G
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
       C          Am             F          G
And if youʼre in love, then you are the lucky one,
       C              Am             F  G
ʼCause most of us are bitter over someone.
        C          Am             F G
Setting fire to our insides for fun,
      C                     Am             F
To distract our hearts from ever missing them.
          G
But Iʼm forever missing him.

Chorus:
 C  F  Am  G
         ...And you caused it,
 C  F  Am  G
         ...And you caused it,
 C  F  Am  G
         ...And you caused it
