Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

The main guitar part plucks the bass note, g string, b string in a triplet pattern repeated with
the same notes on the g and b string throughout, only the bass note changes.

for simplicity I use Am, C/B, C, and F as the "chords" to denote the changing base notes.


     Am  C/B  C  F  G
e|-------------------|
B|--1----1---1--1--1-|
G|--0----0---0--0--0-|
D|-------------------|
A|--0----2---3-------|
E|--------------1--3-|

Verse 1:
Am              C/B                      C
     I've spent way too much time moving on
Am            C/B
      Tried a couple of therapists
C
Even got rid of?some?stuff
Am                 C/B                    C
      It's like my?mind got a mind of its?own
Am                 C/B                 C
      'Cause I've been busy getting over

Getting over someone

Pre-Chorus:
F                    G
    It's not like my brain's not rushing
C          C/B          Am
Every time you get too close
F                    G
    It's not like I can't imagine
C          C/B          Am
Losing myself in your arms
F                     G
    It's not like my skin isn't longing
C          C/B           Am
After the weight of your touch
Am             C/B       C
It's what if I mess this up

Chorus:
                Am     C/B    C
So just take it slow
                         Am     C/B    C
'Cause I'm scared to let go
                F          C/B        C
And my heart is struggling not to get hurt again
             Am      C/B    C
Just take it slow

Verse 2:
Am           C/B                   C
     Someone left me with a broken heart
Am          C/B
     That I passed on to someone
C
And broke a new one apart
Am                 C/B
     Things can be good enough
      C   C/B Am
Still not enough
Am                            C/B
And that's why I'm terrified

Having you by my side

Pre-Chorus:
F                    G
    It's not like my brain's not rushing
C          C/B          Am
Every time you get too close
F                    G
    It's not like I can't imagine
C         C/B          Am
Losing myself in your arms
F                     G
    It's not like it ain't a habit
C              C/B           Am
Thinking 'bout "what if" too much
Am                 C/B              C
    Like what if I mess this up?

Chorus:
                 Am     C/B    C
So just take it slow
                         Am     C/B    C
'Cause I'm scared to let go
                F          C/B        C
And my heart is struggling not to get hurt again
             Am      C/B    C
Just take it slow
