Verse
C#m
I'm down to my skin and bone
E
And my mommy, she can't put down the phone
G#m B
And stop asking how I'm doing all alone, alone
C#m
But the truth is the stars are falling, ma
E
And the wolves are out c-calling, ma
G#m B
And my home has never felt this far
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
But all this driving
E
Is driving me crazy
G#m
And all this moving
B
Is proving to get the best of me
C#m
And I've been trying to hide it
E
But lately
G#m
Every time I think I'm better
B
Pickin' my head up, getting nowhere
[Chorus]
C#m E
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
G#m B
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
C#m E
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
G#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
[Verse]
C#m
Now I'm down to my skin and bones
E
My baby listens to me on the phone
G#m B
But I can't help feeling like I'm all alone, all alone
C#m
The truth is, the stars are falling, babe
E
And I'd never ever thought that I would say
G#m B
I'm afraid of the life that I've made, I've made
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
But all this driving
E
Is driving me crazy
G#m
And all this moving
B
Is proving to get the best of me
C#m
And I've been trying to hide it
E
But lately
G#m
Every time I think I'm better
B
Pickin' my head up, getting nowhere
[Chorus]
C#m E
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
G#m B
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
C#m E
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
G#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
[Verse]
C#m E
I've been lyin' to them all
G#m
I don't need it anymore
B
Don't you worry about me
C#m
I'll be fine if I can breathe
E
I've been hidin' for too long
G#m
Taking shit for how I'm wrong
How I'm wrong
B
Always wrong
[Chorus]
C#m E
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
G#m B
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
C#m E
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
G#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Take me back to the basics and the simple life)
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease)
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby)
C#m B
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
