Sweet nothing
C G Em D
1. You took my heart and you
held it in your mouth,
- C G Em D
and, with a word all my love came rushing out.
- C G
Em
D
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied
out by a single word,
C G Em - D
there
is a hollow in me now.
C - G
So I put my faith in something unknown,
Em D
I'm living on such sweet
nothing.
C
- G
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Em D
I'm living on such sweet
nothing.
C - G
And it's hard to learn, and it's hard to love
Em D
when
you're giving me such sweet nothing.
C - G
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing,
Em D
you're
giving me such sweet nothing.

2. It isn't easy for me to let it go,
- C G
Em D
‘cause
I've swallowed every single word.
- C G Em
And every whisper, every sigh
D C
eats
away at this heart of mine,
G Em - D
and
there is a hollow in me now.
C - G
So I put my faith in something unknown,
Em D
I'm living on such sweet nothing.
C - G
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
Em D
I'm living on such sweet
nothing.
C - G
And it's hard to learn, and it's hard to love
Em D
when
you're giving me such sweet nothing.
C - G
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing,
Em D
you're
giving me such sweet nothing.
+ C - G - Em - D (2x)
C G
Em D
+ And it's not enough to tell me that you care
Em G Em D
when we
both know the words are empty air.
C
- G - Em
- D
You give me nothing
!
+ C - G - Em - D (4x) - C
