Intro: Em | D - G | C | B7 | Verse:
           Am7          Em7
Running around chasing hearts,

  D      G                 D
chasing bodies to fix the parts.

   G          Am7              Em7
I don't know how I reached this place,

    D        G                    D
so far from heaven, so far from grace.
Pre-Chorus:
G      Am
And I want to give in to the pressure,

                        Em
'cause I feel like the city's got the better of me.

D         G                         D
Oh, this casual love isn't what it seems,

G       Am     
and I try to imagine something closer

         Em
and somebody who is good for me

 D      C  
I'm so tired of all this searching,

B7
Do I, do I, do I, do I?
Chorus:
 C          G           D           Em   D
Go home to nothing or stay out for more?

 C          G          D            Em  D
Give in to someone or lock down my door?

     C            Em       D                Am7  B5
Or drown all my shadows, drown them like before?

  G          B7           Em | D - G | C | B7 |
Drowning shadows once more.
Verse 2:
             Am7              Em7
The more I drink, the more I drown,

   D         G                    D
If I'm not thinking, I won't lay down.

     G      Am7          Em7 
The more I rise above it all,

     D      G              D               
The less I care about the fall.
Pre-Chorus:
G      Am
And I want to give in to the pressure,

                        Em
'cause I feel like the city's got the better of me.

D         G                         D
Oh, this casual love isn't what it seems,

G       Am     
and I try to imagine something closer

         Em
and somebody who is good for me

 D      C  
I'm so tired of all this searching,

B7
Do I, do I, do I, do I?
Chorus:
 C          G           D           Em   D
Go home to nothing or stay out for more?

 C          G          D            Em  D
Give in to someone or lock down my door?

     C            Em       D                Am7  B5
Or drown all my shadows, drown them like before?

  G          B7           Em | D - G | C | B7 |
Drowning shadows once more.

       Em | D - G | C | B7 |
Once more.

       Em | F - C | B7 |
Once more.
Chorus:
 C          G           D           Em   D
Go home to nothing or stay out for more?

Give in to someone or lock down my door?

     C            Em       D                Am7  B5
Or drown all my shadows, drown them like before?

  G          B7           Am7
Drowning shadows once more.
