Intro

D D G G G G

D        G    D                              G
    Bite my tongue, you wouldn't hear me anyway
D        G    D                                   G
    Hold my nerve, while I wait for the fires to fade

Am                                          G
    I'm seeing every single word you don't say
                                           D
    But I feel like I've seen it all
Am                          Bm         G
    How come every time you ask me to stay
                            D
    You're halfway gone?

D                            G                             Bm
    If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell?
                      A           G                        D
    I'm wide awake, waiting for sleep to steal my doubts
D                             G                                    Bm
    And everything we had rehearsed, has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
                                  G
    I'm holding on, so tight it hurts
                                  D         G
    So why are we holding on?

D         G   D
    Close my eyes
                          G
    Am I slowly slipping away?
D             G   D
    If I bide my time,
                                      G
    I'll get lost like a tear in the rain

Am                          Bm         G                            D
    How come every time you ask me to stay, you're halfway gone?


D                            G                             Bm
    If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell?
                      A           G                        D
    I'm wide awake, waiting for sleep to steal my doubts
D                             G                                    Bm
    And everything we had rehearsed, has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
                                  G
    I'm holding on, so tight it hurts
                                D
    So why are we holding on?
D
    Why are we holding on?
D
    Why are we holding on?
D
    Why are we holding on?
D
    Why are we holding on?

D                            G                             Bm
    If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell?
                      A           G                        D
    I'm wide awake, waiting for sleep to steal my doubts
D                             G                                    Bm
    And everything we had rehearsed, has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
                                G                              D
    I'm holding on so tight it hurts, but I can't let you go
