[Intro]

Dm F Em G

[Verse 1]

Dm F Em

Years of fighting lonely now

G Dm

Gave this away to a lonely town

F Em

To all the friends who let me down

G Dm

A substance to get high without steady ground

F Em

Well I guess this showed me how

G Dm

Much I could take with no one around

F Em G

I'm just trying to make you proud

Am G F

You're not always right

[Chorus]

Am G F

I lost a little time in the faith that we hold when

Am G F

I should've shot the questions out then reload

Am G F

I've learnt that holding back only gives you control

G F Dm F Em G

It's just a reminder of what I already know

[Verse 2]

Dm F Em

Drown myself to wash it out

G Dm

Too little to lose filled with self-doubt

F Em G

I can't seem to work you out

Dm F

I begged myself for another chance

Em G Dm

Confused to who I'm asking as my head and heart dance

F Em G

But I can't see where I stand

Am G F

You're not always right

[Chorus]

Am G F

I lost a little time in the faith that we hold when

Am G F

I should've shot the questions out then reload

Am G F

I've learnt that holding back only gives you control

G F Dm

It's just a reminder of what I already know

[Bridge]

This empty room gets tighter

As I stretch out to reach her

F G

This burdens all the weight of you

I hold my head to hide it

As I fight with this moment

F G

The world feels faster than my breath

[Chorus]

Am G F

* *

I lost a little time in the faith that we hold when

Am G F

I should've shot the questions out then reload

Am G F

I've learnt that holding back only gives you control

G F

It's just a reminder

G F

It's just a reminder

G F

It's just a reminder of what I already know
