Breathe

  A                                      Bm
2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake
                                    D
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
                      Dm                     A
I don't love him and winter just wasn't my season
 A                                                  Bm
Yeah, we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
                                           D
Like they have any right at all to criticize
                   Dm                            A
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason

        Bm
Cause you can't jump the track
            D
We're like cars on a cable and
  A                        E
Life's like an hourglass glued to the table
  Bm                    D
No one can find the rewind button, girl
  A                           E    E7
So cradle your head in your hands
     G       D        A           G       D     A
And breathe, just breathe. Whoa breathe just breathe

 A                                     Bm
May, he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
                                                D
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
                        Dm                    A
Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year
A                                            Bm
Here in town you can tell he's been down for while
                                              D
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
                      Dm                        A
Wanna hold him, but maybe I'll just sing about it

        Bm
'cause you can't jump the track
           D
We're like cars on a cable and
  A                        E
Life's like an hourglass glued to the table
  Bm                    D
No one can find the rewind button, boys
  A                            E    E7
So cradle your head in your hands
     G     D           A  E  E7   G       D     A  E  E7
And breeeeeeathe, just breathe, breeeeathe just breathe

  Bm                                    D
There's a light at each end of this tunnel
                         A                        E
You shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
  Bm
And these mistakes you've made
               D                         A              E    E7
You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around

 A                                     Bm
2 AM and I'm still awake writing this song
                                       D
If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me
Dm                          A
Threatnin' the life it belongs to
 A                                          G*
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
                                                D
'Cause these words are my diary screamin' out loud
                 Dm                              A
And I know that you'll use them however you want to

  Bm
Cause you can't jump the track
            D
We're like cars on a cable and
  A                        E
Life's like an hourglass glued to the table
  Bm                       D
No one can find the rewind button now
  A                      E    E7
Sing it if you understand
     G      D            A  E  E7         G   D           A  E  E7
Yeah breeeeeeathe, just breathe, ohhh breeeeeathe,  just breathe
     G      D             A           E  E7
Yeah breeeeeeeathe, just breathe, ohhh breeeeeeathe, just breathe
