Intro
G7 A6 x2
[Verse 1]
G7
Sitting by myself
A6
And wondering
D
Why the only bliss I feel
F#
Is from the things that aren’t real
[Verse 2]
G7
I want to know
A6
If I was
D
Given the chance to change it all
F#
Would I give in or would I fall?
[Chorus 1]
G
And now
A
I’m submerged in it all
D
Everywhere I look
F# Bm
I’m surrounded by my faults
G
I wish
Bf
I could put it all on pause
D
Wait a minute
F# Bm
'Til the storm calms down
[Verse 3]
G7
I wish
A6
I could be happy
D
From the little things I see
F#
But I’m constantly reminded
[Verse 4]
G7
Of the things
A6
I couldn’t be
D
And I know before I get away
F#
There’s still a lot that’s left to say
[Chorus 2]
G
But now
A
I’m submerged in it all
D
Everywhere I look
F# Bm
I’m surrounded by my faults
G
I wish
A
I could put it all on pause
D
Wait a minute
F# Bm
'Til the storm calms down
[Bridge]
G A
And I know I’ve come a long way and I’m better with myself
D F# Bm
But there’s still that nagging feeling I belong to someone else
G A
I don’t know if I’ll be happy but I’m better off alone
D F# Bm
I know everything is simpler when I do it on my own
G A
And I’m sorry if it hurts you that I’m pushing you away
D F# Bm
But I think it’d hurt you more if I were to let you stay
G
I don’t want to be your burden
A
I'm my own and it's enough
D F#
All these thoughts I’ve been submerged in
Bm
Say the waters will be rough
G A
I’m running out of time wish I could put it all on pause
[Outro]
D
And wait a minute
F# Bm
'Til the storm calms down
A G A Eb
