E                    B        A
I lost a signal and put you away
 C#m                    G#m           A     E
Swore upon my sun I'd save you for a rainy day
E                            B         A
Loosened the noose then let go of the rope
C#m                          G#m     E      A
I know if it's never coming back it has to go

E
I keep calling your name
(I keep calling your name)
I wanna hold you close but I never wanna feel ashamed
So I keep calling at night (Keep calling at night)
I wanna hold you close I just never wanna hold you tight

Chorus:
C#m                                 E
Goodness gracious I can't seem to stop
            A
Calling you up (calling you up)
              F#m
Just to keep crawling to your arms
C#m                                 E
Goodness gracious I can't seem to stop
            A
Calling you up (calling you up)
              F#m
Just to keep crawling to your arms

I found the weakness and put it to play
Swore upon the stars I'd keep you till the night is day
Shake my head dizzy so I'll never know
You said if you're never coming back you have to go

I keep calling your name (I keep calling your name)
I wanna hold you close but I never wanna feel ashamed
So I keep calling at night (Keep calling at night)
I wanna hold you close I just never wanna hold you tight

Chorus:
Goodness gracious I can't seem to stop
Calling it off
Calling it off just to keep crawling to your arms
Goodness gracious I can't seem to stop
Calling it off
Calling it off just to keep crawling to your arms

F#m                    A
Oh my goodness here I go again
            C#m
Pulling you back to me
             E                          F#m
Pulling you back into my arms so selfishly
          A
I don't think I understand
               C#m
Cause I don't really know myself
E
I keep calling you up
            F#m
Calling you up
            C#m
Calling you up
            E
Calling you up
            F#m
Calling you up

Chorus:
Goodness gracious I can't seem to stop
Calling it off
Calling it off just to keep crawling to your arms
Goodness gracious I can't seem to stop
Calling it off
Calling it off just to keep crawling to your arms
