[Verse]
I Dhad a feeling
That my Glife had lost the sum of its moBmmentum
And I was at the Gtail end winding down
Then I get to Dthinking about the fGriends that i’ve lost
And the bridges I‘ve burned just to Bmget here
I was kicking at some cGoals that ain't gone out
But the night that we sweated out into the street
With the Gheaviest snow falling down on my feet
I Bmknow I got myself into this
But AI don’t see myself getting out aliGve
[Chorus]
'cause If it happened DoncAe Gthere’s
Bound to be Danother oneA  G  
I don’t need to BmsayD  A  
How I need you in the Gworst way
I need you in the wBmorst way
Like your dDim lit alley
Needs your Acigarettes in the rGain
Burning and Awaiting for the curtain to faDll
[Verse]
I know, she said, l’ve been holding this weGightâ
She wouldn’t look me in the Bmeye
We broke slow over the night
I couldn’t set that story Gstraight
I wish I could Dsay that it wasn’t my fGault
I got too good at being gBmone out singing former lovers songs
I saw the writing on her Gwall
But that Dnight that we
Yea! When we waded out into the sea
And we wGashed these sins off of me
And now I Bmdon’t see myself Agetting out aGlive

[Intro]

D G Bm G

[Verse]

I had a feeling

G Bm

That my life had lost the sum of its momentum

And I was at the tail end winding down

D G

Then I get to thinking about the friends that i’ve lost

And the bridges I‘ve burned just to get here

I was kicking at some coals that ain't gone out

But the night that we sweated out into the street

With the heaviest snow falling down on my feet

I know I got myself into this

A G

But I don’t see myself getting out alive

[Chorus]

D A G

'cause If it happened once there’s

D A G

Bound to be another one

Bm D A

I don’t need to say

How I need you in the worst way

I need you in the worst way

Like your dim lit alley

A G

Needs your cigarettes in the rain

A D

Burning and waiting for the curtain to fall

[Verse]

I know, she said, l’ve been holding this weightâ

She wouldn’t look me in the eye

We broke slow over the night

I couldn’t set that story straight

D G

I wish I could say that it wasn’t my fault

I got too good at being gone out singing former lovers songs

I saw the writing on her wall

But that night that we

Yea! When we waded out into the sea

And we washed these sins off of me

Bm A G

And now I don’t see myself getting out alive

[Chorus]

D A

'cause If it happens once

G D A

There's bound to be another one

G Bm D

i don’t need to say

A G Em Bm A G

How I need you in the worst way

[Outro]

So Maria won’t you dance a little longer?

Bm A

Pour your drink a little stronger

Let it calm you down

A D

Let a strong drink calm you down

Let it calm you down

I’ll hold up the losing end

A G

Until they lay me in the ground

And god rest my bones

But if left alone

I know they’re going to dig until

A G

They find their way back home

Bm A G

Over the rivers, and the fields full of snow

Bm A D

Over the mountain pass in the Colorado cold
