*Disclaimer: This is very rough! I just wanted to quickly tab it out, most of it 
is right, i think, not sure about the bridge...but any editing needed will be done!*

Tuning: Capo 2

Intro: G D Cadd9 x2

Verse:
G 
I'm just so tired of these troubles that I try to hide. 
Cadd9
Makes me wanna wash away my whole world inside. 
G
I think it's time that I make changes in the things I do. 
Cadd9
This weight on my chest I am ready to loose. 


Pre-chorus:
Em                                                G                       
And all this time I've been getting in my own way. 
                           D
I have to tell myself only I can be the one to make a change. 


Chorus:
G     D         Cadd9                       G
Don't hold me down. Oh, I was getting so far. 
      D         Cadd9                          G
Don't hold me down. Cause I don't wanna fall apart.
      D         Cadd9                                  G
Don't hold me down. You see me waking up and feel it now. 
      D         Cadd9                           G  D  Cadd9
I'm breaking down and nothing's gonna stop me now. ...No, no.


Verse: 
G
I have been rocking back and forth across the line. 
Cadd9
Hanging for a moment on the wrong side. 
G
Now I'm standing up, I think I'll be here for a while. 
Cadd9
Hope I rememeber how to keep on this steady smile. 


Pre-chorus:
Em                                                 G
And all this time I've been getting in my own way. 
                           D
I have to tell myself only I can be the one to make a change.
