C Take my hand G Maybe we should run away F Maybe we should disappear Am Leave everything behind Like the useless things Boxes labeled memories The sudden health emergencies Yeah we could leave those things behind C G Show me, show me arms that reach for all we can be F Through understanding, I tried forgiveness, Am G I faced the past, it’s what I witnessed Chorus: C Why do I only feel the chills when I’m with you? Em I only hear your words that you say are true Am But you keep thinking it over, thinking it over, F You can catch me if you wanted to, oh Now, why you gotta say goodbye When you know you could've come with me? No, can't afford to leave and stay You're gonna have to just build one way So tell me, tell me all the things you told me we could be Through understanding, I tried forgiveness I faced the facts, it's what I witnessed Chorus: Why do I only feel the chills when I'm with you? I only hear your words that you say are true But you keep thinking it over, thinking it over You can catch me if you wanted to I only feel the chills when I'm with you I feel like I'm so high, I'm feeling so high C-catch me, c-c-catch me C Why does a heart always have to break Am (when you’re trying way too hard), have to break F (yes she’ll see right though you), have to break Oh communication, yeah conversation, It breaks down C Now there will be nothing to talk about, (absolutely nothing, just blah blah blah) Chorus: Why do I only feel the chills when I'm with you?
