When We Were New chords by E For Explosion

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
A  E            C#m
I am selfish, I am holding my breath
A          E
Biting my tongue and hedging boyish bets
A             E           C#m
I'm not speechless, just afraid of what I could lose
A             E
So I'm just staring at my shoes
A            E         C#m
I'm filling space on the floor next to your bed
A           E
Where I'll fall asleep grasping at your hand
A              E           C#m
I'm filled with words that always seem to come too soon
A              E
And I'm still staring at my shoes

Instrumental:
A E  A

Verse 2:
     E
Sometimes love can feel a lot like fear
A     E
Sometimes I can't find the words you need to hear
  A      E             C#m
And if I have to choose, I'll always choose you
A        E
Though I'm still staring at my shoes

Outro:
