  • Difficulty: Intermediate 💪
Key: G

Verse 1:
G                         D          C   D
  One tear to mourn these moments we had
G                           D       C    D
  Wiped off and sealed in a plastic bag
           Em
'Cause the sound of me buckling under
   G                    C      D/F#
Is affording my new overture
       Em
But my patience is pressing for closure
      G                 D           C
And nobody will want me around, I'm sure
N.C.
Chorus:
G                       D       C    D/F#
I don't wanna live like this anymore
     G                             D                C      D/F#
If I jump too high I'll fall right back through the floor
        G
But the walls are closing in, and
                                     D            C
Think this building might just be decaying at the core
            D/F#
And I'm sure
     G                       D       C
That I don't wanna live like this anymore, anymore
D/F#

Verse 2:
G                D
   So we jump in headfirst
C                                         D
  Picking at parts of my body waiting for something to hurt
G                                   C
  Ruin new shoes with the same dirt
Em                        G
  And you say that I'm crazy
        D                 C
Are you out of your mind?

I'm staring at every reflection
            D/F#
Looking for you all the time
Em                  E    G
  But I struggle to hate me
        D                C
And I'm starting to find
N.C.
Nothing's ever been closer than you and

Chorus:
G                       D       C    D/F#
I don't wanna live like this anymore
     G                             D                C      D/F#
If I jump too high I'll fall right back through the floor
        G
But the walls are closing in, and
                                     D            C
Think this building might just be decaying at the core
            D/F#
And I'm sure
     G                       D       C
That I don't wanna live like this anymore, anymore
D/F#

Outro:
G                      D           C
  You wanted more, you got me (I'm sorry)
                     D/F#        G
You wanted more, you got me (I'm sorry)
                     D           C
You wanted more, you got me (I'm sorry)
                     D/F#
You wanted more, you got me (I'm sorry)
               G                   D             C
Let's take this too far, 'til it's all been said (You wanted more, you got me)
                  D/F#      G
Too far, 'til you can't forget (You wanted more, you got me)
                   D             C
Too far, 'til it's all been said (You wanted more, you got me)

'Til you can't forget (You wanted more)
             N.C.
'Til there's nothing left
