[Verse 1]
Fmaj7                    C/G
  You can look all your life for someone
G                   Fmaj7
  You can tell yourself again that something was off
                    C/G              G        Fmaj7
You can spend your life alone, oh-o-oh, oh-o-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
     Fmaj7
When asked if we should stay or go
     G
Your back is up against the wall
    Fmaj7
The clock's the only sound you hear
      G                          Fmaj7
We've all been down this road before
[Chorus]
                         C/G
Feeling like you're so alone
            G              Fmaj7
And there's no way, no way out
                         C/G
Feeling like you're so alone
            G
And there's no way, no way
Fmaj7       C/G     G
I know, I know, I know
Right when you think you have it
Am         C/G
You fall into the static
Fmaj7
Slipping into slow-mo
Fmaj7       C/G     G
I know, I know, I know
It's almost automatic
Am         C/G
You fall into the static
Fmaj7
Slipping into slow-mo
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7                 C/G
  Take a step back, wait just a minute there
G               Fmaj7
  Isn't living all about embracing the real?
                  C/G               G      Fmaj7
You don't have to waste your life alone, alone
[Pre-Chorus]
     Fmaj7
When asked if we should stay or go
     G
Your back is up against the wall
        Fmaj7
There's nothing left to keep you here
      G                          Fmaj7
We've all been down this road before
[Chorus]
                         C/G
Feeling like you're so alone
            G              Fmaj7
And there's no way, no way out
                         C/G
Feeling like you're so alone
            G
And there's no way, no way
Fmaj7       C/G     G
I know, I know, I know
Right when you think you have it
Am         C/G
You fall into the static
Fmaj7
Slipping into slow-mo
Fmaj7       C/G     G
I know, I know, I know

  I heard you're feeling, feeling so lonely
C/G
  What did you hear? You hear it only
Fmaj7                                          C/G   G
  And now it's weird, feeling like you're so alone
Fmaj7
  Now that you're feeling, feeling so lonely
C/G                  G
  What did you hear?  You hear it only
Fmaj7                                 C/G
And now it's real, even if you feel alone
              G
I'll help you find your way back
