           F#                         G#m
You can't find the phone, so you can call it off
        E
But it might be for the best
          F#         G#m
You can't walk away, anyway
               E
Cause you've nowhere else to go

Is he worth all this, is it a simple yes?
Cause if you have to think, it's fucked
Feels like you loved him more, than he loved you
And you wish you'd never met

           F#
Don't keel over now
           G#m
Don't keel over
           E
Don't keel over now
Don't keel over

You've been up all night, and the night before
You've lost count of drinks and time
And your friends keep calling, worried sick
There's strangers everywhere

Don't keel over now
Don't keel over
Don't keel over now
Don't keel over

Chorus:
B
And in one little moment
G#m
It all implodes
F#                        E
This isn't everything you are
B
Breathe deeply in the silence
G#m
No sudden moves
F#                        E
This isn't everything you are
B
Just take the hand that's offered
G#m
And hold on tight
F#                        E
This isn't everything you are
B
There's joy not far from here, right
G#m
I know there is
F#                        E
This isn't everything you are

When you took the call how could you know
That he'd slipped away last night
When you wish you'd went home days ago
To say goodbye, or just hello

Don't keel over now
Don't keel over
Don't keel over now
Don't keel over

Chorus:
And in one little moment
It all implodes
This isn't everything you are
Breathe deeply in the silence
No sudden moves
This isn't everything you are
Just take the hand that's offered
And hold on tight
This isn't everything you are
There's joy not far from here, right
I know there is
This isn't everything you are
This isn't everything you are
