Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][A][C][D]
[Em][A][C][D]

[Verse 1]
I know what you're do[Em]ing
I see it all too [A]clear
I only taste the [C]sa line
When I kiss away your [D]tears
You really had me go[Em]in'
Wishin' on a [A]star
The black holes that sur[C]round you
Are heavier by [D]far
I believed in your con[Em]fu sion
You were so completely [A]torn
It must've been that [C]yesterday
Was the day that I was [D]born
There's not much to ex[Em]am ine
There's nothing left to [A]hide
You really can't be [C]se rious
If you have to ask me [D]why
I [F]say goodbye

[Chorus 1]
'Cause I am barely [C]breathing
And I can't [G]find the air
I don't know who [Am]I'm kidding
Imagining [F]you care
And I could stand here [C]waiting
A fool for another [G]day
I don't suppose it's [Am]worth the price
And worth the price,
the [F]price that I would pay
[F]

[Verse 2]
And everyone keeps [Em]ask ing,
"What's it all a[A]bout?"
I used to be so [C]certain
and I can't figure [D]out
What is this at[Em]traction?
I only [A]feel the pain
There's nothing left to [C]reason
and only you to [D]blame
Will it ev[F]er change?

[Chorus 2]
'Cause I am barely [C]breathing
And I can't [G]find the air
I don't know who [Am]I'm kidding
Imagining [F]you care
And I could stand here [C]waiting
A fool for another [G]day
I don't suppose it's [Am]worth the price
And worth the price,
the [F]price that I would pay

[Interlude 1]
[C]But I'm thinking it ove[G]r anyway[Am][F]
I'm thinking it [C]over any[G]way[Am][F]
[F]

[Bridge 1]
[D]I've come to find
[Am]I may never know
[C]Your changing mind
[Gm]Is it friend or foe?
[D]I rise above
[Am]Or sink below
[C]With every time
[Gm]You come and go
Please don't
Come and [F]go

[Chorus 3]
'Cause I am barely [C]breathing
And I can't [G]find the air
I don't know who [Am]I'm kidding
Imagining [F]you care
And I could stand here [C]waiting
A fool for another [G]day
I don't suppose it's [Am]worth the price
And worth the price,
the [F]price that I would pay

[Outro 1]
[C]But I'm thinking it ove[G]r anyway[Am][F]
I'm thinking it [C]over any[G]way[Am][F]
And I know what you're doin'
[F]I see it all too clear
