             G
What's your name?
      Gmaj7                                    Bm
I can tell you a story before we get into the game
We fall head over heels overnight
                      C
See my face in your future
             Am              D/F#
I'm in your future, in your nights, mmm
         G
We're intense
    Gmaj7                             Bm
In a loop on a 24/7, don't want it to end
But reality's waitin', they say better come
        C
up for air soon
                  Am
Yeah, come up for air soon
        D/F#
Make a change, mmm

 G                  Gmaj7
Fallin' again, and don't understand
 Bm             D
Never my plan, nah

Chorus:
          G
I'm in a cycle
         Gmaj7
Yeah, I admit it
            Bm
How can I change it when
I don't know when I'm in it?
          C
I'm in a cycle
              Am
Swear this is different
            D/F#
Don't wanna end it,
if you leave then I keep spinnin'
             G
My life's a cycle
             Gmaj7
Don't mean we ain't true
               Bm
Just 'cause I talk about
the things I've done before you
          C
I'm in a cycle
              Am
Swear this is different
            D/F#
Don't wanna end it,
if you leave then I keep spinnin'

You're afraid (yeah)
The way I love you now and my love in
the past are the same
And the things that I say are exactly
what I used to tell them
And that really hurts me, but I know, mmm

Fallin' again, and don't understand
Never my plan, no

Chorus

G         Gmaj7
It's so romantic in a way
Bm
Why don't you catch me when I sway?
C              Am                   D/F#
'Cause when my heart falls out of place
I know (oh, oh, oh)

Chorus
