Intro
C#7 Eb6 x2
[Verse 1]
C#7
Sitting by myself
Eb6
And wondering
Ab
Why the only bliss I feel
C
Is from the things that aren’t real
[Verse 2]
C#7
I want to know
Eb6
If I was
Ab
Given the chance to change it all
C
Would I give in or would I fall?
[Chorus 1]
C#
And now
Eb
I’m submerged in it all
Ab
Everywhere I look
C Fm
I’m surrounded by my faults
C#
I wish
Bf
I could put it all on pause
Ab
Wait a minute
C Fm
'Til the storm calms down
[Verse 3]
C#7
I wish
Eb6
I could be happy
Ab
From the little things I see
C
But I’m constantly reminded
[Verse 4]
C#7
Of the things
Eb6
I couldn’t be
Ab
And I know before I get away
C
There’s still a lot that’s left to say
[Chorus 2]
C#
But now
Eb
I’m submerged in it all
Ab
Everywhere I look
C Fm
I’m surrounded by my faults
C#
I wish
Eb
I could put it all on pause
Ab
Wait a minute
C Fm
'Til the storm calms down
[Bridge]
C# Eb
And I know I’ve come a long way and I’m better with myself
Ab C Fm
But there’s still that nagging feeling I belong to someone else
C# Eb
I don’t know if I’ll be happy but I’m better off alone
Ab C Fm
I know everything is simpler when I do it on my own
C# Eb
And I’m sorry if it hurts you that I’m pushing you away
Ab C Fm
But I think it’d hurt you more if I were to let you stay
C#
I don’t want to be your burden
Eb
I'm my own and it's enough
Ab C
All these thoughts I’ve been submerged in
Fm
Say the waters will be rough
C# Eb
I’m running out of time wish I could put it all on pause
[Outro]
Ab
And wait a minute
C Fm
'Til the storm calms down
Eb C# Eb Eb
