Breaking The Habit

by: Lnkin Park

Intro: Em, C, G, D (Play 2 times)

(Play Em Throughout Verse)
Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

[Chorus]
C
I don't want to be the one
D
The battles always choose
C
Cuz inside I realize
D
That I'm the one confused

Em                                      C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
D
Or why I have to scream
Em                             C
I don't know why I instigate
D
And say what I don't mean
Em                         C
I don't know how I got this way
D
I know it's not alright
C                              D
So I'm breaking the habit
C                          D      Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight

(Play Em Thgroughout Verse)
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I heard much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again

[Chorus]
C
I dont want to be the one
D
The battles always choose
C
Cuz inside I realize
D
That I'm the one confused

Em                                     C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
D
Or why I have to scream
Em                           C
I don't know why I instigate
D
And say what I don't mean
Em                         C
I don't know how I got this way
D
I'll never be alright
C                             D
So, I'm breaking the habit
C                                D    Em
I'm breaking the habit tonight
(Bridge)
Em                       D  
I'll paint it on the walls
C                           D
Cuz I'm the one at fault
Em                     D
I'll never fight again
C                          D
And this is how it ends

[Chorus]
Em                                     C
I don't know what's worth fighting for
D
Or why I have to scream
Em                               C
But now I have some clarity
D
to show you what I mean
Em                             C
I don't know how I got this way
D
I'll never be alright
C                                 D
So, I'm breaking the habit
C                        D
I'm breaking the habit
C                               D       E
I'm breaking the habit tonight
