Tom: G
| G | C | G | D |
[Verse 1]
G C
Trying to hold my head above water but my feet are tired,
G C
so, I rest to breath, quickly, slip down away;
G C
caught up in the violence of the waves I must evade and try to find my space.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
You don't understand, it's hard to cruise on,
Em C
knowing it's right, but it feels so wrong;
G D
still the choir plays on, they ain't singing our song.
[Chorus]
G
Sometimes I wish that we never got this far,
C
would've traded all my diamonds to be where you are;
Em D
just to sleep through the day and dance on through the dark.
G
But it's like the air upped and left our lungs,
C
just like a balloon that's got no helium;
Em D
learned how to fly so high but got burned by the sun
G
and burned by the love.
[Verse 2]
G
Waiting for the clouds to break in,
C
would you send down the rains, you know I ain't been patient.
G
The paint is starting to flake and the fire keeps on raging,
C
you still like pie, but my tastes are changing.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
You don't understand, it's hard to cruise on,
Em C
knowing it's right, but it feels so wrong;
G D
still the choir plays on, they ain't singing our song.
[Chorus]
G
Sometimes I wish that we never got this far,
C
would've traded all my diamonds to be where you are;
Em D
just to sleep through the day and dance on through the dark.
G
But it's like the air upped and left our lungs,
C
just like a balloon that's got no helium;
Em D
learned how to fly so high but got burned by the sun
(G)
and burned by the love.
[End-Chorus]
G
Sometimes I wish that we never got this far,
C
would've traded all my diamonds to be where you are;
Em D
just to sleep through the day and dance on through the dark.
G
But it's like the air upped and left our lungs,
C
just like a balloon that's got no helium;
Em D
learned how to fly so high but got burned by the sun
G
and burned by the love.
