F#m
Vices that I mix
F#m
No, they can't fix the type of silence that this is
F#m                       Bm
But I can't take another lifeless, empty kiss
Bm
Still, I keep pushing back the time to call it quits


[Pre-Chorus]
       F#m
When I hold you, I get the feeling I don't know you
F#m                         Bm
I get the feeling it's not love that keeps us holding on
Bm                                      F#m
It's not love that keeps us holding on (Ah)


[Chorus]
F#m               A                      Bm
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
       E                     F#m
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
                  A                      Bm
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
       E                  F#m
Got me never letting go (Ah)


[Post-Chorus]
 F#m
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
 F#m
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
 Bm
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
Bm
It's the fear of being alone


[Verse 2]
F#m
Easy as it is
F#m
The risk of wasted time is keeping me convinced
F#m                          Bm
I shouldn't go ahead and give you up like this
Bm
And I really, really wish


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                       F#m
I didn't have to make excuses
F#m
'Cause I'm scared to find out what the truth is
F#m                                    Bm
'Cause I'm scared to find out it's not love that keeps us holding on
Bm                                       F#m
It's not love that keeps us holding on (Ah)

[Chorus]
F#m               A                      Bm
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
       E                     F#m
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
                  A                      Bm
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
       E                  F#m
Got me never letting go (Ah)


[Post-Chorus]
 F#m
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
 F#m
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
 Bm
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
Bm                             F#m
It's the fear of being alone (Ah)


[Chorus]
F#m               A                      Bm
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
       E                     F#m
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
                  A                      Bm
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
       E                  F#m
Got me never letting go (Ah)
