[Intro] G Em C Am7 x2 [Verse 1]
G            Em
Please don't make me hide

D                 B
I've been puttin' up a fight

           Em            A
What's the use of it now?

       D
When I get pulled down

         G                   Em
Anyways, I've been hidin' my expressions

D                   B
You can't blame the reflections

        Em                   A
And the ripples on the ground

 Am                  D
I might as well have drowned
[Chorus]
G              Em
So I'm keepin' busy

     C                Am7
Work twice as hard as you

G           Em
Want you to believe me

     C              Am7
That I can pick and choose

G                 Em
Said you'd let me drive your car

   C                Am7
As long as I'm with you

G                    Em
Then you'd wait 'til we get far

    C                   Am7
And tell me that you'll be gone soon
[Instrumental] G Em C Am7 [Verse 2]
G         Em
Feels too late right now

D                 B
I've been holding back

           Em                  A
'Cause I'm afraid that I'm too loud

D        D
Six feet underground

       G     Em
I feel alone again

D                B
Stuck between my friends

             Em            A
I guess I'll figure my way through them

D
Not sure how I'd do it

        G    Em
But I'm sure now

    D           B
The people will listen

       Em    A
As the water glistens

       Am
Then I see my reflection

D
So much clearer
[Chorus]
G              Em
So I'm keepin' busy

     C                Am7
Work twice as hard as you

G           Em
Want you to believe me

     C              Am7
That I can pick and choose

G                 Em
Said you'd let me drive your car

C                   Am7
As long as I'm with you

G                    Em
Then you'd wait 'til we get far

C                       Am7
And tell me that you'll be gone soon
[Outro] G Em C Am7 x2 (on repeat, add G at the end and don't pluck the D string the second time.)
