[Verse]
E A
I'm a book of mistakes
E A
And it's just getting worse
E A
Every new one I make
E A
Is a rumour you heard
G#m A
'Cause these days I'm self-destructive
E
The way I love
G#m A
I push away every chance
E
'Cause it's never enough
B F#m
My love, you can take the things they say
A
As the bitter truth
F#m
But don't throw it all away
A B
On second hand news
[Chorus]
E A
'Cause if I just let go
E A
If my heart could choose
C#m A
I would burn these bridges I've built
B
And find my way back to you
C#m A
No, don't throw it all away
B
On second hand news
E A E A7 A6
[Verse]
E A
Been a broken machine
E A
Since the day you've been gone
E A
On a loop in a dream
E A
Did you think I'd move on?
F#m
You can take the things they say
A
As the bitter truth
F#m
But don't throw it all away
A B
On second hand news
[Chorus]
E A
'Cause if I just let go
E A
If my heart could choose
C#m A
I would burn these bridges I've built
B
And find my way back to you
E A
I'd leave it all behind
E A
I've got nothing to lose
C#m A
And I know you heard what you heard
B
But it doesn't mean it's true
C#m A
No, don't throw it all away
B
On second hand news
[Middle 8]
F#m
Crying silent tears in the next door room
G#m
'Cause everybody's here but you
A
So I wrote you out this message
B
But I stopped myself from sending it off
F#m G#m A B
[Chorus]
E A
If I just let go
E A
If my heart could choose
C#m A
I would burn these bridges I've built
B
And find my way back to you
E A
I'd leave it all behind
E A
I've got nothing to lose
C#m A
And I know you heard what you heard
B
But it doesn't mean it's true
C#m A
No, don't throw it all away
B
On second hand news
C#m A
No, don't throw it all away
B
On second hand news
