D How do I lay this down? Every time you're around Em I wanna be close to you A#dim Move in the way you do D Know that you know me best Bm Feel your name on my chest Em When I'm with you, it's rest A#dim Why am I such a mess? Oh Chorus: D Bm Holding my hand 'til three in the morning Pouring my heart in pieces Em Too scared to say it sober, A#dim get it over my lips after taking a sip I'm so problematic, acting erratic, how do I feel? Don't wanna listen, got some ambition to hate what is given D Bm And I just wanna go home G A#dim I'm glad that you didn't leave me alone D Bm So why did I leave the best thing I had? G It's sad that I run to somebody else A#dim 'Cause I'm too afraid that D Bm I'll mess up the one thing that's good in my life G F# Mm-mm, it's the one thing that's good in my life D How do I heal my head? Bm Take back some things I said G F# Erase the in-between, pick up mistakes by me Maybe I've learned my lesson Got a lot of confessing Consequences undressing Is this a curse, or is this a blessing? Chorus: D Bm Holding my hand 'til three in the morning Pouring my heart in pieces G Too scared to say it sober, F# get it over my lips after taking a sip I'm so problematic, acting erratic, how do I feel?
