[Intro]
Em  G  Cadd9  G


[Verse]
Em               G          Cadd9        G
I wanna tell you I'm sorry, But what’s a couple words?
Em             G             Cadd9        G
Drops in the Pacific between us,
Em               G          Cadd9        G
I wanna tell you I'm sorry, Not that I'd go back
Em          G            Cadd9        G
Just that I miss what it was


[Chorus]
    Em         G       Cadd9   G
But I’ve got a bad habit of holding my
Em             G       Cadd9   G
tongue
Em         G   Cadd9    G
I've got a bad habit of holding my
Em         G       Cadd9     G
Tongue


[Bridge]
              Em          G
I woke up bereft, With no poetry left,
       Cadd9                G
Except that to be found, In sweat stains and coffee
Em                   G
Grounds, What's left of the energy spent
       Cadd9           G
Keeping my feet nailed down
         Em                   G
But life abounds, Light resounds
       Cadd9             G
In cathedrals and border towns
      Em            G
And I love you even now
  Cadd9         G
I love you even now


[Chorus]
    Em       G       Cadd9             G
But I got a bad habit
    Em           G          Cadd9                 G
And I wanna tell you I'm sorry, You and the other ones
    Em         G             Cadd9        G
But somehow we don't Keep in touch
Em           G          Cadd9            G
I wanna tell you I'm sorry, Look back and laugh and say
Em            G             Cadd9                 G
God, it is so hard, Growing up

    Em         G      Cadd9 G
But I've got a bad habit of holding my tongue
    Em         G      Cadd9 G
But I've got a bad habit of holding my tongue


[Bridge]
           Em       G
Weeks like these, I wish we were still speaking
        Cadd9                       G
Are you pleased with the pieces, Of me you’ll be keeping?
    Em                       G
You should be, cause life is fleeting
                Cadd9                      G
And if while we lean toward death, We lock eyes with meaning
Em              G              Cadd9        G
Gleaming and profound, Then we walk on holy ground
     Em            G      Cadd9         G
So I love you even now, I love you even now


[Chorus]
    Em       G       Cadd9         G
But I got a bad habit
Em       G       Cadd9             G
I got a bad habit
Em       G       Cadd9             G
I got a bad habit,             Of holding my
Em       G       Cadd9             G
tongue,                        Of holding my
Em       G       Cadd9             G
Tongue,                        Of Holding my
