Introduction:
A G
2 AM and she calls me cause I'm still awake
D
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
A
I don't love him. Winter just wasn't my season."
A G
Yeah, we walk through the doors - so accusing their eyes
D
Like they have any right at all to criticize
A
Hypocrites. You're all here for the very same reason.
Bm
Cause you can't jump the track
D
We're like cars on a cable
A E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button, girl
A E
So cradle your head in your hands.
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
A G
In May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
D
"Just a day," he said down to the flask in his fist
A
"Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year."
A G
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while
D
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
A
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it
Bm
Cause you can't jump the track
D
We're like cars on a cable
A E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button, boys
A E
So cradle your head in your hands.
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
Bm D
There's a light at each end of this tunnel
A E
You shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
Bm D
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
A E
If you only try turnin' around
A G
2 AM and I'm still awake writing a song
D
If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me
A
Threatenin' the life it belongs to.
A G
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
D
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out loud
A
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.
Bm
But you can't jump the track
D
We're like cars on a cable
A E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button now
A E
Sing it if you understand...
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
G D A G D A
Whoa breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
