INTRO:
C  Am  G  F


VERSE:
            Am
Oh, there's only one thing that I need to say to you
      F
How could you've not have noticed all the things you put me through
  G
Abandon me and leave me to leave this all behind
      F                           G
There always was a hole in your heart (I hope is blind?)

        Am
Well deliver me from madness we discover your own heart
  F
Chasing down the demons that have been there from the start
   G
A warm embrace to channel once again
     F                         G
The feeling you felt when you once were a friend


CHORUS:
        C
Oh, so hold my hand
            C
Don't you leave me alone
      Am
I'll hold my breath 'til I choke on my own
 G
Words that will never quite make their way back
 F
Back to the place where your heart turns so black

       C
Oh, I bit my tongue 'til I'm choking to death
      Am
I've given it my everything but there's nothing left
          G                F            Am
So let's call this what it is this vertigo


VERSE:
Am
Is taken away
           F
Have you heard a single thing that I've been trying to say
        G
You're boiling and fishing like a slap to the wrist
 F                   G
Never again as you shake with your fist

       Am
Oh be calm and ever so clear
         F
As the clouds in your head make it all disappear
      G
Now broken and beautifully you squirm and decay
         F                          G
As you stretch out your fingertips all then to say


CHORUS:
        C
Oh, oh hold my hand
            C
Don't you leave me alone
      Am
I'll hold my breath 'til I choke on my own
 G
Words that will never quite make their way back
 F
Back to the place where your heart turns so black

       C
Oh, I bit my tongue 'til I'm choking to death
      Am
I've given it my everything but there's nothing left
          G                F            C
So let's call this what it is this vertigo
