Standard tuning, capo on 4th
C G Em D
You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
C G Em D
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
C G Em D
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied out by a single word
C G Em D
There is a hollow in me now
C G
So I put my faith in something unknown
Em D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C G
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Em D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C
And it's hard to learn
G
And it's hard to love
Em D
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
C G
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
Em D
You're giving me such sweet nothing
C G Em D
C G Em D
It isn't easy for me to let it go
C
Cause
G Em D
I've swallowed every single word
C
And
G Em
Every whisper, every sigh
D C
Eats away at this heart of mine
G Em D
And there is a hollow in me now
C G
So I put my faith in something unknown
Em D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C G
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Em D
I'm living on such sweet nothing
C
And it's hard to learn
G
And it's hard to love
Em D
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
C G
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
Em D
You're giving me such sweet nothing
C G Em D
C G
And it's not enough
Em D
To tell me that you care
C G Em D
When, we both know the words are empty air
C G Em D
You give me nothi-------------ng
C G Em D
