Intro: Bm A Bm A D A Bm A G F#

Bm                 A
She sits among the pieces
Bm                  A  D A
Of broken glass and photographs
Bm            A
Reluctantly releases the
G                    F#
Last of what was her past
Bm                  A
It struck without a warning or
Bm           A      D   A
Did she just ignore the signs
Bm                   A
In those dark clouds forming
  G               F#
Behind her silver lines?

CHORUS:
    G
The door
                A
It slammed like thunder
        F#
And the tears
               Bm
They fell like rain
A       G
And the warnings
         A
>From her family
      F#          Bm   A
Whirl like a hurricane    
      G           A
She's drowning in emotions
        F#
And she cannot
          Bm
Reach the shore
A     G
She's alive but
        F#          Bm
Can she survive the storm?

Bm                 A
A broken jewel box dancer
Bm             A    D   A
Lies in pieces down the hall
Bm                    A
She's finding out the answers
      G                 F#
Don't change nothing at all
Bm
It's time that
            A
She stopped searching
Bm
For who's to blame or
A    D    A
What went wrong
Bm
The only thing
    A               G
For certain is he's gone
                  F#
She's got to move on

Repeat chorus

Solo: Bm A Bm A D A Bm A G F#

D                         A
Someday days just roll on by
          F#                Bm
Without a grey cloud in the sky
          D
She keeps telling herself
 G              A
"I will make it on my own"
        D
And her friends they've all
                   A
Gone back to their lives
         F#              Bm
Thinking she will be all right
       D
As she races through
    G                F#
The night to make it home

Repeat chorus

          Bm A  D  G Fm
