F Am

Ohhh I, Don't know what to say

And I, have told you lately

F Am

That I'm tired of talking about the same old reasons we change

F Am

Just take it easy don't worry about these mistakes

Because I'm keeping it cool, now thinking about you,

sticking around and if we should pay

Tied down,looking around and

I know what I want so don't hold me down

F Am

Oh I, I don't play games

F Am

And I, I have been learning

F Am

To just to let it all go and quiet when I feel like speaking

F Am

My mind done whatever it is I need to make clear and just say

That I'm keeping it cool, now thinking about you,

sticking around and if we should pay

Tied down, I'm looking around and

I know what I want so don't hold me

F Am

Oh I, I can't take it

F Am

To the troubles all around me, I'm caught up and I'm barely breathin

F Am

But I'm finding that holding on is harder than never leaving
