Chords

[Verse 1]
         G                Em
You can keep actin’ like you’re fine,

        C               D
Walkin’ on those white lies

         G                    Em
Don’t stay with a reckless man like me —

     C                   D
I’ll leave you in your lows

        G                  Em
Now I’m sittin’ here alone,

                C                D
Probably drinkin’ all damn night

           G              Em
Cause what’s the point of this life

       C             D             G
When I’m the one who let you go?
[Verse 2]
        G                 Em
I ain’t moved on since that

     C                 D
Hot summer night you took off

        G                   Em
But none of it matters now,

      C                   D
You’re already gone

         G                Em
You got a new guy you run to

       C                   D
But it used to be me you clung to

     G                Em
I broke it all with these

    C             D             G
Demons I refuse to face
[Chorus]
          C             G
I’m drownin’ in bottles,

      D             Em
Stuck in the past

         C                 G
Burned every bridge I thought

       D
Would last

         C                 G
My old man says I’m disrespectful

     D
And cold

        Em               C
But he don’t know half the

   D
Weight that I hold

      C               G
This pain runs deep,

          D           Em
And these drugs feel like my only friend

        C                  D
But I swear I never meant for it

       G
To end
[Bridge]
        Em               C
Maybe someday I’ll climb outta this

      G              D
Hole I dug too deep

        Em               C
Trade these pills and these bottles

        D
For a little sleep

     Em                  C
I ain’t askin’ for redemption,

     G               D
Or even to be understood

        Em                C
Just wish someone would see me,

       D                D
Like you once could
(Ending chorus)
        C             G
I’m drownin’ in silence,

       D              Em
Haunted by your name

         C               G
I’ve only got my past and

    D
A pocket full of blame

       C             G
My old man still thinks I’m

     D           Em
Just some lost kid

       C                     D
But he don’t know the nights I pray

        G
I never did what I did

       C               G
This pain don’t fade, and

     D                Em
These drugs still feel like home sometimes

        C                  D
But I swear I never meant to

     G
Let you slip through my life
[Outro]
       G                  Em
You used to run to me

       C              D         G
Now I run from myself
