[Intro]
C G Em G C Em G x2
CTell me a piece of your history
that you're Gproud to call your Cown
CSpeak in words you picked up
as you Gwalked through life aClone
CWe used to swim in your stories
and be Gpulled down by their Ctide
Cchoking on the words
and drowning with no Gair insCide
Now you've Emhit a wall and it's Cnot your fault
my Gdear my dear my deDar
Now you've Emhit a wall and you've Chit it hard
my Gdear my dear oh deDar
CIt is not enGough to be Ddumbstruck
Can you fill the silence
Cyou must have the Gwords in that Emhead of yoBurs
And Coh oh can you feGel the silence
EmI can't take it Danymore
cause iCt is not enoGugh to be dDumbstruck
Can you fill the silence
C G Em G C Em G
CTell me a piece of your history
that you've Gnever said out Cloud
CPull the rug beneath my feet
and Gshake me to the Cground
CWrap me around your fingers
break the Gsilence open Cwide
Cand before it seeps into my ears
it Gfills me up from the Cinside
Now you've Emhit a wall and it's Cnot your fault
my Gdear my dear my deDar
Now you've Emhit a wall and you've Chit it hard
my Gdear my dear oh deDar
CIt is not enGough to be Ddumbstruck
Can you fill the silence
Cyou must have the Gwords in that Emhead of yoBurs
And Coh oh can you feGel the silence
EmI can't take it Danymore
cause iCt is not enoGugh to be dDumbstruck
Can you fill the silence
