Lyrics

[Intro]
| F#m | E6 | A | Bm |
| F#m | E6 | A | Bm |

[Verse 1]
F#m
   Breathe in, breathe out,
E6
everybody scream "Fuck!"
A                Bm
 I know I've gone  too far this time
F#m
   My grandpa said,
E6                A
  "Don't be afraid of death
         Bm
He's just  your oldest friend
F#m               E6                A
   Coming back for  what he forgot."
            Bm
I hope I forget all these lies
    F#m                             E6
The books that I am reading are the ones that I've forgot
          A                      Bm
I tore out all of the pages along  with my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
             F#m
And I spelled   your name still
         E6                                   A
With the letters from the letters that I wrote
Bm      F#m
  And I spelled out your name still
         E6                              A
With the letters from the letters that I wrote
Bm         F#m
  See this body, see this body,
         E6
see this body's not for me
        A                                Bm
And the way my bones are breaking is the way my skin will
bleed
         F#m
So I put out my fists,
             E6
and you mark both my hands
              A                     Bm
With little x's that mean that I am extra unsafe
               F#m
Where did your spine go?

[Chorus]
E      A        D
I know I've got none
           F#m        E
Is it your heart that breaks first?
A       D
Fragile bones
               F#m
Where did your spine go?
E      A        D
I know I've got none
           F#m        E
Is it your heart that breaks first?
A       D
Fragile bones
                          F#m
And she is playing on the playground

[Verse 2]
E                          A
 And she is playing on the swings
D                    F#m                         E
 And she is learning words like 'fuck' and 'hate'
      A                      D
And I know just what it means
                                F#m
It means she's just like her mom
E                            A
 She'll end up lonely and sad
D                              F#m
 She'll end up alone with rings
                       E
With rings in her mouth
                      A
With guns in her house
With holes in her heart
D
 Hey, Kid
               F#m
Where did your spine go?

[Bridge]
E      A        D
I know I've got none
           F#m        E
Is it your heart that breaks first?
A       D
Fragile bones
               F#m
Where did your spine go?
E      A        D
I know I've got none
           F#m        E
Is it your heart that breaks first?
A       D
Fragile bones
               F#m
Where did your spine go?

[Chorus]
E      A        D
I know I've got none
           F#m        E
Is it your heart that breaks first?
A       D
Fragile bones
               F#m
Where did your spine go?
E      A        D
I know I've got none
           F#m        E
Is it your heart that breaks first?
A
Fragile
D       F#m
