Tom: Em
G G
Look what I built, isn't it beautiful?
C G
Let's burn the whole thing down.
C G
It's hard enough tryna keep it up,
Em D
I'd rather put it in the ground.
G G
What a way to finish a chapter,
C G
let's kill the author too.
C G
If we're all pages and the book is unwritten then
Em D*
shouldn't we be able to choose what's in it?
[Pre-Chorus]
C Cm
I just wanna start something I can finish.
[Chorus]
G Em D
Keep my days from getting darker,
G Em C
pull my head above the water.
G Em D
Hold me close until it's over,
Am D
pull my head above the water.
[Interlude]
| N.C. | N.C. | N.C. | N.C. |
[Verse 2]
G G
I thought I knew all that I needed to,
C G
turns out I don't know shit.
C G
I put my problems in a box for later but
Em D
I've forgotten where it is.
G G
So, why are you here? Why are you listening?
C G
I don't have much to say.
C Em
No clever revelation, no melody is changing,
Am D*
the fact that I got bills to pay. Can you help?
[Chorus]
G Em D
Keep my days from getting darker,
G Em C
pull my head above the water.
G Em D
Hold me close until it's over,
Am D
pull my head above the water.
[Bridge]
(G) (Em)
I may not be the same when you pull me up
(G) (Em)
I may not be the same.
G Em
Swam too far past the waves, now I've seen too much
G Em
I may not be the same, just promise me you'll ...
[Chorus]
G Em D
Keep my days from getting darker,
G Em C
pull my head above the water.
G Em D
Hold me close until it's over,
Am D*
pull my head up.
[Chorus]
G Em D
Keep my days from getting darker,
G Em C
pull my head above the water.
G Em D
Hold me close until it's over,
Am D
pull my head above the water.
[Interlude]
| N.C. | N.C. | N.C. | N.C. |
[Outro]
G Em D
Pull my head above the water,
G Em C N.C.
pull my head above the water.
