Am
I've been deep down in the dirt for some time
G
Not a clear song from my heart or my mind
F
Cause these words that are clinging on for dear life
        Am
But I'm breathing, I'm breathing, I'm breathing

Am
You got body and my knees they go weak
G
Lie awake and read your sext I can't sleep
F
I wish I wanted what you want, not yet three
         Am
But I'm breathing, I'm breathing, I'm breathing

Chorus:
                Am                         G
Let me keep it simple, so I don't have to face ya
                F                                Am
Let it be just my call, cause I ain't ready for you
                Am                         G
Let me keep it simple, so I don't have to face ya
                F                                Am
Let it be just my call, cause I ain't ready for you

Am
I ain't ready, I ain't ready,
G
I ain't ready, I ain't ready,
F
I ain't ready, I ain't ready,
Am
I ain't ready, I ain't ready

I go to bed with you, but dream about him
You think I want to? No, I hate that he wins
Hard to forget how fucking broken I've been
But I'm healing, I'm healing, I'm healing

Chorus:
Let me keep it simple
So I don't have to face ya
Let it be just my call
'Cause I ain't ready for ya
(I ain't ready, I ain't ready)
Let me keep it simple
So I don't have to face ya
Let it be just my call
'Cause I ain't ready for ya
(I ain't ready, I ain't ready)

Am
Physical to trick your heart
You were moving on
G
Physical to feel okay
That's what people say
F
Physical I'd better try
                     Am
So this ain't goodbye

Am
Physical to trick your heart
You were moving on
G
Physical to feel okay
That's what people say
F
Physical I'd better try
So this ain't goodbye
Am
No, no; let me keep it...

Am
Physical to trick your heart
You were moving on
G
Physical to feel okay
That's what people say
F
Physical I'd better try
                      Am
So this ain't goodbye

Chorus:
Let me keep it simple
So I don't have to face ya
Let it be just my call
'Cause I ain't ready for ya
