[Verse 1]
         D                       A         G(Riff A)
It's so hard to breathe right now
                D                        A         G(Riff B)
Living things without a friend of mine
DAir just filling Aevery bit, of eCvery endG, of every mindA  
GYou thought you could feelA  
(verse chords repeat)
And it's maybe 6 a.m.
And no one wants to be with me
So I'm calling out to someone and something that I don't know so well
Ohh, I'm free
[Chorus]
If I canD't find the warmth Ain my summerG

BYou make me feel so straAnge
[Interlude]
 D   A   Gx2
[Verse 2]
Won't you let me breathe the air
I want to hold on to right now
Won't you let me read a book about
Someone's queen who came back for me
I see bridges in my eyes
I see mornings left for the children
I see people holding back, trying to find another reason so they can walk away
And it makes me scream and I pray
[Chorus]
If you can't find the warmth in my summer
And I can't find the light in my day
I just look to my friends and I'll see our troubles away
You make me feel so
[Bridge]
GIt can never end D'cause we don't speak
GIt will never just dieD  D/C  
So why don't you Gsus4call the manA  
GAnd, tell him to come over here and just clean up my Apride
[Chorus]
If you can't find the warmth in my summer
And I can't find the light in my day
I just look to my friend and we'll see our little troubles away
You make me feel so strange
[Chorus]
If you can't find the warmth in my summer
And I can't find the light in my day
I just look to my friend and we'll see our troubles away
