F#m E D

[Verse]

         F#m  E  D
We don't talk
                       F#m  E  D
No confrontation at all
                          F#m      E      D
Been building tension up high like a wall
                F#m  E         D
So that explains the state of things

         F#m  E  D
We still touch
                           F#m  E  D
You're making love like a crush
                         F#m     E     D
I feel your heart barely beating for us
                   F#m  E         D
Yeah, that explains the state of things


[Pre-Chorus]

  F#m                  A                    E     D
How many tears can we hold until somebody blinks?
    F#m                   A                          E
And how many holes can we put in this boat 'till it sinks?
          D
'Till it sinks


[Chorus]

        F#m
We can try to ignore
          A
It just comes back for more
          E
It won't go away
    D
Go away

     F#m                   A                      E
So tell me how long we can both carry on in this state
         D
State of things


[Verse]
         F#m  E  D
We got stuck
                         F#m  E  D
This fading love's not enough
                     F#m      E      D
With no direction, straight out of love
                F#m   E           D
Yeah, that explains the state of things

[Pre-Chorus]

  F#m                  A                    E     D
How many tears can we hold until somebody blinks?
    F#m                   A                          E
And how many holes can we put in this boat 'till it sinks?
          D
'Till it sinks


[Chorus]

        F#m
We can try to ignore
          A
It just comes back for more
          E
It won't go away
    D
Go away

     F#m                   A                      E
So tell me how long we can both carry on in this state
         D
State of things


[Bridge]

  Bm          F#m
Alone in the night
               E               D
Though you're still by my side
  Bm        F#m
Nobody's wrong
      E                C#7
But I know this ain't right


[Pre-Chorus]
            F#m                  A                   E       D
So tell me how many tears can we hold until somebody blinks?

            F#m                   A                        E
And tell me how many holes can we put in this boat 'till it sinks?
         D
'Till it sinks


[Chorus]

        F#m
We can try to ignore
          A
It just comes back for more
          E
It won't go away
    D
Go away

     F#m                   A                      E      D
So tell me how long we can both carry on in this state
