Em
There was a war that summer
        D
And the blood dripped down from the pulpit
       C
And as much as I tried to control it
             Am
I watched my heart turn black, my foundation cracked

[Verse 2]
Em
How could they bite the hands that fed them?
D
Let's not forget they were hiding under my bed then
C
If your voice was in their heads, what did you tell them?
Am
If your voice was in their heads, what did you tell them?

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                        D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C                      Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
Em                        D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C                      Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see

[Chorus]
         C                    G
You were breaking my heart in two
         Em          D        C
You were breaking my heart in two
         C                    G         Em  D  C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
         C                    G
So I could walk back down to you
         Em          D        C
So I could walk back down to you
         C                    G         Em  D  C
You were breaking my heart in two steps

[Verse 3]
              Em
They took our food and money
        D
Left my father to rot in the prison
      C
But injustice cannot be forgiven
   Am
No hallelujah please for hypocrisy

[Verse 4]
Em
Outside the ruin and the folding chair
D
I won't go in, can't trust what's there
C
You lead me in and help me see
Am
A burden lifted off of me

[Chorus]
         C                    G
You were breaking my heart in two
         Em          D        C
You were breaking my heart in two
         C                    G         Em  D  C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
         C                    G
So I could walk back down to you
         Em          D        C
So I could walk back down to you
         C                    G         Em  D  C
You were breaking my heart in two steps

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                        D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C                      Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
Em                        D
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
C                      Am
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see

[Chorus]
         C                    G
You were breaking my heart in two
         Em          D        C
You were breaking my heart in two
         C                    G         Em  D  C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
         C                    G
So I could walk back down to you
         Em          D        C
So I could walk back down to you
         C                    G         Em  D  C
You were breaking my heart in two steps
