[Verse]
AmWhen I Gwalk, I won't Emopen my heart
Hold Don to my thoughts
AmIn a Gdream told you Emeverything
And Dthen I got caught
AmSo why Gwait, take Emwhatever they make
Just Dsteady my pace but
EmI still feel Dyou pushing Aaway
You'rAme out of Greach
I keep Emmoving my lips preDtending to speak
AmWhen all at onGce, say it's yoEmu that I want
DWhatever that means
AmIn my Gbrain, you're the Emdrug that I lace
To Dget to through the pain but
EmI still feel Dyou pushing Aaway
[Chorus]
I'm on a Emroad
That should have E7never even got me Amhome
And I Donly ever feel Emalone
Tell me do I Cmaj7sound insane?
If you could E7read me like an open Ambook
I'm just a Dpicture that you never Emtook
Won't you say it Cmaj7to my face?
[Verse]
AmI'm alrGight, no one's Emsaying I'll jump
But Dyou know I might
AmI'm conGcerned, I'm just Emusing my words
And Dtaking up time

Cmaj7

Am7

[Verse]

Am G Em

When I walk, I won't open my heart

Hold on to my thoughts

Am G Em

In a dream told you everything

And then I got caught

Am G Em

So why wait, take whatever they make

Just steady my pace but

Em D A

I still feel you pushing away

Am G

You're out of reach

Em D

I keep moving my lips pretending to speak

Am G Em

When all at once, say it's you that I want

Whatever that means

Am G Em

In my brain, you're the drug that I lace

To get to through the pain but

Em D A

I still feel you pushing away

[Chorus]

I'm on a road

E7 Am

That should have never even got me home

D Em

And I only ever feel alone

Cmaj7

Tell me do I sound insane?

E7 Am

If you could read me like an open book

D Em

I'm just a picture that you never took

Cmaj7

Won't you say it to my face?

[Verse]

Am G Em

I'm alright, no one's saying I'll jump

But you know I might

Am G Em

I'm concerned, I'm just using my words

And taking up time

Am G Em

So don't pray, it is coming too late

And I wanna stay but

Em D A

I still feel you pushing away

[Chorus]

I'm on a road

E7 Am

That should have never even got me home

D Em

And I only ever feel alone

Cmaj7

Tell me do I sound insane?

E7 Am

If you could read me like an open book

D Em

I'm just a picture that you never took

Cmaj7

Won't you say it to my face?

[Bridge]

Bm Am7

How'd we get so far again?

Bm Am7

This is what we want, she said

Bm Am7

You're in every breath I spend

Bm Am7

You're in every breath

[Chorus]

I'm on a road

E7 Am

That should have never even got me home

D Em

And I only ever feel alone

Cmaj7

Tell me do I sound insane?

E7 Am

If you could read me like an open book

D Em

I'm just a picture that you never took

Cmaj7

Won't you say it to my face?

[Verse]

Am G Em

When I walk, I won't open my heart

Hold on to my thoughts

Am G Em

In a dream told you everything

And then I got caught

Am G Em

So why wait, take whatever they make

Just steady my pace but

Em D A

I still feel you pushing away
