verse 1
G
Hands down caught in the middle,
You knew I was waiting for a lie,
D
But the days got dark for a little.
G
And they can't see that you're trouble,
You said you could change like fire to the rain,
D
But the days stayed dark for a little.
Em
Cut my teeth on the words you speak
G
Getting lost in the echoes.
Em
And your young years cover up my ears
G
Getting lost in the echoes.
C Em
Cause you built love inside a vacant home
G
You put my hand in yours
A
But I was never yours to hold.
C Em
You knew my fears would always keep me here,
Bm/G
You put my hand in yours,
C
But I was never yours to hold
Em A
I was never yours to hold, no.
Em A
I was never yours to hold, no.

Oh-oh....oh-oh

verse 2
G
Head high losing the battle
Cover up your own tracks and take it back,
D
But your days got dark for a little.
Em/G
Found me foolish and fickle
G
Never change my mind, just gave up on a time
D
When the days were dark for a little.
Em
Cut my teeth on the words you speak
G
Getting lost in the echoes.
Em
And your young years cover up my ears
G
Getting lost in the echoes.
C Em
Cause you built love inside a vacant home
G
You put my hand in yours
A
But I was never yours to hold.
C Em
You knew my fears would always keep me here,
Bm/G
You put my hand in yours,
C
But I was never yours to hold
C
Never gonna give you hope
Em D
Never gonna let you grow
G D
Never gonna feel you in my bones
C
Cos I was never yours to hold.
C
Never gonna loose control
Em D
Never gonna beat the heart you stole
Em/G D
I'll be burning bright out on my own
C
Cos I was never yours to hold.
C A
I was never yours to hold.
C Em
Cause you built love inside a vacant home
G
You put my hand in yours
A
But I was never yours to hold.

But I was never yours to hold
