G D  Am  Em G D  C

[Verse 1]
G                        D
Remember the time I told you a lie
C                            Dm
 You said saying sorry don't make it alright
G                  D                   Am Em    D
Remember the way I promised you, baby, I  would stay
       C                         F
Well I don't wanna do this 'cause you won't forget it
Em                    D  G
I can't keep living a lie

[Chorus]
        Em      C         D
I can't be everything you want me to be, baby
G       D             C        D                      Am
I can't sleep knowing you, you can't breathe without me
C              Em   Am
Here we go running, hand in hand til you fall down
             Em                Am         G
I won't look back 'cause I'm on this merry go round
 F      Am        C
Oh here we go round

[Verse 2]
          G                  D
You say remember the trip we couldn't afford
   Em                                  F
My heart on my sleeve, your feet on the dashboard
G                             D
I'm scared for you, you dwell in the past
   C                        Em     D
If you can't move on you're going nowhere fast
Am            Em                 D
I don't wanna do this 'cause you won't forget it
    Em                       D
But I can't keep living this lie

[Chorus]
G       D       C         D
I can't be everything you want me to be, baby
G       D             C        D                      Am
I can't sleep knowing you, you can't breathe without me
C              Em   Am
Here we go running, hand in hand til you fall down
             Em                Am         G
I won't look back 'cause I'm on this merry go round

[Bridge]
Em              C           Em                   D
  There he goes, here I go, here we go spinning around
D
There he goes, here I go, there we go spinning around
C             Em
There he goes, here I go
                  D       G  D
No, we don't want to slow it down

[Chorus]
G       D       C         D
I can't be everything you want me to be, baby
G       D             C        D                      Am
I can't sleep knowing you, you can't breathe without me
C              Em   D                           Am
Here we go running, hand in hand til you fall down
             D                                G
I won't look back 'cause I'm on this merry go round
