Capo 2nd
[Intro]
Em - Bm - F#m - Em - D - A7 - Em (x3)
[Verse 1]
Em Bm F#m Em D A7 Em
I was looking through the fog of an early morning trying to keep you
Em Bm F#m Em D A7 Em
Holding you flowers to last, I was cast in a feeling trying to hold you
D A7 Em
But you were an ocean, love, I couldn’t hold you
[Chorus]
G D A Em
But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
G D A Em
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
G D A Em
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
G D A
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon
Em - Bm - F#m - Em - D - A7 - Em (x2)
[Verse 2]
Em Bm F#m Em D A7 Em
I was looking for the light in a midnight hurry trying to keep you
Em Bm F#m Em D A7 Em
Holding your towers of glass, I was cracks in the ceiling trying to hold you
D A7 Em
But you were an ocean, love, I couldn’t hold you
[Chorus 2]
G D A Em
But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
G D A Em
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
G D A Em
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
G D A
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon
[Bridge]
Bm A G
It only took a trip to the coast
Bm A G
To have a week alone at most
D A
But I didn’t figure it out
Em
I didn’t overcome what I’ve been thinking about
D A Em A7
I’m in love with someone who doesn’t want me around
[Chorus 3]
G D A Em
But I didn’t lose it, I kept it together, if only for you
G D A Em
I’m stuck on the freeway, I’m dust in the doorway, if only for you
G D A Em
I’m hung on a heartache, I’m mad at the mistakes, if only for you
G D A
But I didn’t know that I would lose you so soon
[Outro]
