Verse 1:
A G
2 AM and she calls me ’cause I’m still awake
D
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
Dm A
I don’t love him and 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
Dm A
Bypocrites, you’re all here for the very same reason.
Chorus:
Bm
Cause you can’t jump the track,
D
We’re like cars on a cable and
A E
life’s like an hourglass glued to the table.
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button, girl,
A E E7
So cradle your head in your hands
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe. Whoa breathe just breathe
Verse 2:
May, he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
Ain’t been sober since maybe October of last year
Bere in town you can tell he’s been down for while
But my God it’s so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him, but maybe I’ll just sing about it
Chorus
Bridge:
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
And these mistakes you’ve made
D A E E7
You’ll just make them again if you’ll only try turnin’ around
Verse 3:
A * G *
2 AM and I’m still awake writing this song
D
If I get it all down on paper it’s no longer inside of me
Dm A
Threatnin’ 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
Dm A
And I know that you’ll use them however you want to.
