[Intro]
 G(Cadd9)
[Verse]
GI've got shackles round my feet, they tie me to this place
EmThey won't loosen up for love or money, or anything that's in betwCeen
They're teDlling me I'm not allowed to leGave
[Verse]
GYou kept telling me that I should pack up just in case
'Cause you thEmought that I had better things in store
I couldn't do as I was tCold, so I toDld you I didn't love you anymGore
[Pre-Chorus]
But soEmmehow you saw thCrough it all
And you took oDut all the dark thoughts that I think
Now Emyou don't return any oCf my calls
So I guDess your heart was a one time thing
[Chorus]
I wish I could tGake my time
And show you that IEm'll be fine
'Cause I would be notChing without you
Nothing without youG  
[Verse]
A coGuple hours into this long 13 hour drive
Its Emjust me with the lights off and I think
I shoCuld've done beDtter by yGou
[Verse]
Now GI can feel the shackles burn their way into my skin
When I tEmurn around and try to run away from all the dark thoughts
Cause nCow I have nothing to prDove and no one to lEmose
[Pre-Chorus]
And nAext time I'll do beCtter
Cause Dif I make the same mistakes again
[Chorus]
I wish I could tGake my time
And show you that EmI'll be fine
'Cause I would be noCthing without you
Nothing without youG  
If I had the chGance to say
"I'm sorry for Emhow things changed,"
'Cause I would be notChing without you
Nothing without yoGu
[Bridge]
And you shEmaped Cme into wDho I wanted to be
And you mEmade Cme take a lDook at myself and see
[Chorus]
I wish I could taGke my time
And show you that EmI'll be fine;
Just thCink about how Dhappy you could Embe
If I had the chGance to say
"I'm sorry for Emhow I changed,"
'Cause I would be noCthing without you
Nothing without youG  Gsus2

[Intro]

G Cadd9

()

[Verse]

I've got shackles round my feet, they tie me to this place

Em C

They won't loosen up for love or money, or anything that's in between

D G

They're telling me I'm not allowed to leave

[Verse]

You kept telling me that I should pack up just in case

'Cause you thought that I had better things in store

C D G

I couldn't do as I was told, so I told you I didn't love you anymore

[Pre-Chorus]

Em C

But somehow you saw through it all

And you took out all the dark thoughts that I think

Em C

Now you don't return any of my calls

So I guess your heart was a one time thing

[Chorus]

I wish I could take my time

And show you that I'll be fine

'Cause I would be nothing without you

Nothing without you

[Verse]

A couple hours into this long 13 hour drive

Its just me with the lights off and I think

C D G

I should've done better by you

[Verse]

Now I can feel the shackles burn their way into my skin

When I turn around and try to run away from all the dark thoughts

C D Em

Cause now I have nothing to prove and no one to lose

[Pre-Chorus]

A C

And next time I'll do better

Cause if I make the same mistakes again

[Chorus]

I wish I could take my time

And show you that I'll be fine

'Cause I would be nothing without you

Nothing without you

If I had the chance to say

"I'm sorry for how things changed,"

'Cause I would be nothing without you

Nothing without you

[Bridge]

Em C D

And you shaped me into who I wanted to be

Em C D

And you made me take a look at myself and see

[Chorus]

I wish I could take my time

And show you that I'll be fine;

C D Em

Just think about how happy you could be

If I had the chance to say

"I'm sorry for how I changed,"

'Cause I would be nothing without you

G Gsus2

Nothing without you
