[Verse]
Am C G D Am C G
Home time, I'm getting ready for a long night
D Am C G D
They say you never miss it 'til it's gone
Am C G D
Well you're gone and I wish I'd done it better
Am C G D Am C
Mostly I miss having you close to me
G D Am C G D
The only one who really ever knoooooows me
Am C G D C (or D again)
And I'm sorry, I promise I'll do better, better
[Chorus]
C Am Em
There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
C Em Am Em
Can we start again, can we start again
C Am G (or Em again)
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
Am Em C D
It never mends, can we start again

[Verse]
Am C G D Am C
Some nights, I kid myself I treated you right
G D Am C G D
Lying to myself, I didn't knooooooooow
Am C G D
If I'm honest, I could've done it better
Am C G D Am C G
You said we had it pretty much perfect
D Am C G D
And then you told me that you looooooooved me
Am C G D C (or D again)
But you're sorry, you needed something better, better
[Chorus]
C Am Em
There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
C Em Am Em
Can we start again, can we start again
C Am G (or Em again)

[Bridge]
G Am Em
So I guess I'm gonna let you go
C G C Am Em
But you get to keep a little bit of my soul
G Am Em
So I guess I'm gonna write/rat you out
C G C Am Em
But I don't think I can do it to me right now
(Dm) Am Am G D
Let's pretend that time heals all
[Chorus]
soft
C Am Em
There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
C Em Am
But I'm not afraid, to start
C, Am, Em
again
C Em Am Em
start again, I'm gonna start again
C Am G (or Em again)
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
Am Em C D
It never mends, but we've gotta try
C G (fade)
to start again
