Dm                F                C
I've been here before and I don't like it
Dm             F                  C
I'm trying to find where I went wrong
Dm              F
'Cause I never wanna feel the way
            A
I do right now ever again
Dm       F             C
Totally lost and all alone

Chorus:
         Gm   A# Dm
Can you save me
         F             A#
Can you save me from myself
         Gm           Dm F
Cause I lost it all again
Gm          A#  Dm
And I think maybe
           F                    A#
You're the one who can pull me out
        Gm            Dm A
Of the holes I always dig

I said it before and always mean it
I promised this time will be the last
'Cause just when I thought that
I've come so far from who I used to be
There's no escaping from my past

Chorus

Dm                              A# Dm
You're the one who can pull me out
A#
One step forward
Dm
Two steps backward
A#
One step forward
Dm
Two steps backward
A# Dm
Why
                  A#  Dm
Do I do this to myself


Chorus
