Intro E Asus2
E Asus2
Bite my tongue, you wouldn't hear me anyway
E Asus2
Hold my nerve, while I wait for the fires to fade
Bm Asus2 E
I'm seeing every single word you don't say but I feel like I've seen it all
Bm Asus2 E
How come every time you ask me to stay, you're halfway gone?
Asus2 C#m
If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell
Bm Asus2 E
I'm Wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt
Asus2 C#m
And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
Bm Asus2
I'm holding on so tight it hurts
E
So why are we holding on?
*turnaround is the same as intro, with the E from the end of the Chorus followed by the Asus2*
E Asus2
Close my eyes, am I slowly slipping away
E Asus2
If I bide my time I'll get lost like a tear in the rain
Bm Asus2 E
How come every time you ask me to stay you're halfway gone?
Asus2 C#m
If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell
Bm Asus2 E
I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt
Asus2 C#m
And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
Bm Asus2
I'm holding on so tight it hurts
E
So why are we holding on?
Why are we holding on? x4
Repeat Chorus
(last line of the song in the last Chorus)
E
Why I can't let you go
