[Verse 1]
Em
Suffocating our love
C Em
So you don’t feel sad when you’re away
Em
We’re not reason enough,
C Em
You won’t give up on the dreams you made
[Pre 1]
C
You say you need to live a little
G D
Living on your own without it
Em
Keep your head up above,
C G
While you’re suffocating our love
[Chorus]
C G D
We keep saying we need time out
C G D
We keep praying we won’t break down
C G
I’ll admit it’s tough, sacrifices have been made
D Em
for the flicker of the light that we shared between the shade
Em
So just keep your head up above,
C G
While you’re suffocating our love
[Verse 2]
Em
We’re cutting it short
C Em
Got to fight the fire before we burn
Em
We’re not shutting the door
C Em
Got to ride it out or wait our turn
[Pre 2]
C G
We say what if we’re mad we might be making a mistake
D
Don’t doubt it, don’t doubt it
Em
Keep your head up above,
C G
While you’re suffocating our love
[Chorus]
C G D
We keep saying we need time out
C G D
We keep praying we won’t break down
C G
I’ll admit it’s tough, sacrifices have been made
D Em
for the flicker of the light that we shared between the shade
Em
So just keep your head up above,
C G
While you’re suffocating our love
[Bridge]
Am Em G D
Time to grow it’s time to wander
Am Em G D
Time grows old but we’ll grow stronger
Am Em G D
Time to grow it’s time to wander
Am Em G D
Time grows old but we’ll grow stronger
[Instrumental]
C G D
C G D
[Chorus]
C G D
We keep saying we need time out
C G D
We keep praying we won’t break down
C G
I’ll admit it’s tough, sacrifices have been made
D Em
for the flicker of the light that we shared between the shade
Em
So just keep your head up above,
C G
While you’re suffocating our love
