[D][D][Em][G]

[Verse 1]
A[Em]pologies to future mes and [G]yous
[Em]But I can't help feeling like we're [G]through
[D]The ripping of the tape hurts my ear[C]s
In my [D]years,
I have never seen [Em]anyone
quit quite [G]like you do

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Em]Twin bruises on my shins[G]
[Em]From where I kicked
the back of the [G]seat in
They [D]meant what I went through for [C]you
But now they're [D]fading,
now [Em]they're [G]gone

[Verse 2]
These [Em]teenage hands
Will never touch yours [G]again
[Em][G]
But I re[D]member you, you had a [C]body
You had [D]hands and arms and legs
and et [Em]cetera[G]

[Pre-chorus 2]
Did [Em]I fail?
Did [G]I fall?
Did I [Em]waste my time
Waste my time on a [G]broken heart?
Or is [D]this the start of the great silence?
[C]Is this the sta[D]rt of every day?
[Em][G]

[Verse 3]
I'm [Em]not gonna end up a nervous wreck
Like the [G]people I know
who are nervous wrecks
Though I'm [Em]not gonna name names
Yours was an exception
Did the [G]sound just stop?
At the [D]end of every day
There'll be [C]nothing left to say
There'll be no [D]backstage pass
[Em][G]

[Chorus 1]
We gotta [D]go back
We gotta go back
We gotta [D]go back
We gotta go back
We gotta [D]go back
We gotta go back
We gotta [D]go back
We gotta go back

[Chorus 2]
We gotta [D]go back
We gotta go [G]back
[A]We gotta go [D]back

[Bridge 5]
So de[C]scend into cliche
If you've [G]found your holy grail
I could [Am]fill back in that grave
I could [G]hammer in that nail
I could [C]give you what you want
I could [G]give you what you deserve
I could [Am]sing another song
I could [G]watch that hammer swerve

[Bridge 6]
And [C]when the mirror breaks
I wouldn't [G]miss it for the world
Call it [Am]blackstar, call it painstar
The [G]same thing happens when you touch it
Did they tell you, did they [C]tell you
what happens when you touch it?
Did they tell you?
Let me [G]tell you what happens
when you touch it
Let me tell you, let me, [Am]let me, let me
Let me, let me, let me,
let [G]me, let me, let me, let me

[Verse 4]
So de[C]scend into cliche
If the [Bm]music has forsaken you
Roll the [Am]stone over the grave
I [G]never liked that [Am]one a[Bm]nyways
Or [C]stare into the face
Of what[Bm]ever it is that's facing you
And [Am]if the levee breaks
You'll [G]find out what it is
[Am]that's replacing [Bm]you

[Chorus 3]
And [C]when the mirror breaks
I wouldn't [Bm]miss it for the world
Call it [Am]blackstar, call it painstar
The [G]same thing happens
when [Am]you touch i[Bm]t
Did they [C]tell you what happens
when you touch it?
Did they [Bm]tell you what happens
when you touch it?
Did they [Am]tell you?
Did they tell [G]me?
[Am]What happened [Bm]to you?
