When A Heart Breaks Tab

by Dave Barnes


Capo 1

Intro:  
           
No one ever told me
                
It would come to this
                 
Began with such a promise
               
End with such a twist

             
I lean into the whisper
                
But I don’t hear a thing

           
It’s a tear in the dark
                            
All alone in the car in pieces (peices)

It’s the sound of mistake 
                              
As I’m lying awake and sleepless (sleepless)
                             (n/c)
This is the sound that’s made when a heart breaks

           
Everybody’s laughing
               
Maybe it’s just me
              
Just something unrequited
                   
Maybe it will never be

             
I lean into the whisper
                
But I don’t hear a thing

           
It’s a tear in the dark
                            
All alone in the car in pieces (peices)

It’s the sound of mistake 
                              
As I’m lying awake and sleepless (sleepless)
                             
This is the sound that’s made 

                         
Please don’t leave me     (4xs)

                
How could I have come to fear you?

Drop me off and left me here

Nothing here to find my way 

But the light you take as you pull away

Far ahead the rush is movin'

With others here and I'm still provin'

Nothin's wrong it's in my mind

Nothing's wrong and I’ll be fine
 
           
It’s a tear in the dark
                            
All alone in the car in pieces (peices)

It’s the sound of mistake 
                              
As I’m lying awake and sleepless (sleepless)
                             (n/c)
This is the sound that’s made when a heart breaks
