[Verse 1]
             C       G
Something's always broken
                      Am
Seems we’re worlds apart
      C       G
Many words unspoken
                    Am
Burning in our hearts
       C          G
We've been here before
                Am
Beat this dead horse
    C         G*
In circles we go


[Pre-Chorus]
              Am
‘Cause we're running on, running on
C             G         G
Running on empty
              Am
Yeah we’re running on, running on
C             G*
Running on empty


[Chorus]
Am                C
  This straw house keeps falling
G               D
  We built this on hollow ground
Am
  Can't fix it
C
  What's missing
G         D
  So easy to tear it down
Am        C                G       D
  And the wind just blows away......
Am        C                G       D
  And the wind just blows away......
Am


[Verse 2]
     C         G
Innocence is shattered
            Am
Tainted memories
      C     G
Of a happy after
                Am
That will never be
    C        G
We can't be apart
              Am
When we try again
    C           G*
We make deeper scars


[Pre-Chorus]
              Am
‘Cause we're running on, running on
C             G         G
Running on empty
              Am
Yeah we’re running on, running on
C             G*
Running on empty


[Chorus]
Am                C
  This straw house keeps falling
G               D
  We built this on hollow ground
Am
  Can't fix it
C
  What's missing
G         D
  So easy to tear it down
Am        C                G       D
  And the wind just blows away......
Am        C                G       D
  And the wind just blows away......


[Bridge]
F                  D
  Looking at these walls we built
F                  D
  Wreckage of this love surrounds me
F                    D
  Next time build it brick by brick
F                 D
  I’m not letting go


[Chorus]
Am                C
  This straw house keeps falling
G               D
  We built this on hollow ground
Am
  Can't fix it
C
  What's missing
G         D
  So easy to tear it down
Am        C                G       D
  And the wind just blows away......
Am        C                G       D
  And the wind just blows away......
