Breathe (2 AM) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Two am, and she calls me 'cause
I'm still [F]awake
Can you help me unravel my latest [C]mistake?
I don't love him, winter just wasn't [G]my season
[G]Yeah, we walk through the doors,
so accusing their [F]eyes
Like they have any right at all to criti[C]cize
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same
[G]reason

[Chorus 1]
'Cause you [Am]can't jump the track,
we're like [C]cars on a cable
And [G]life's like an hourglass [D]glued to the table
[Am]No one can find the rewi[C]nd button, girl
So [G]cradle your head in [D]your hands
[F]And [C]breathe, [G]just breathe
[F]Oh, breathe,
[C]jus[G]t breathe

[Verse 2]
[G]May he turn twenty-one
on the base at Fort [F]Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his [C]fist
Ain't been sober since maybe October
of [G]last year
[G]Here in town you can
tell he's been down for a [F]while
But, my God, it's so
beautiful when the boy [C]smiles
Want to hold him, maybe I'll just sing [G]about it

[Chorus 2]
'Cause you [Am]can't jump the track,
we're like [C]cars on a cable
And [G]life's like an hourglass [D]glued to the table
[Am]No one can find the rewi[C]nd button, boys
So [G]cradle your head in [D]your hands
[F]And [C]breathe, [G]just breathe
[F]Oh, breathe,
[C]jus[G]t breathe

[Bridge 1]
There's a [Am]light at each end of this
[C]tunnel, you shout
'Cause you're [G]just as far in as you'll [D]ever be out
And these [Am]mistakes you've made,
you'll just [C]make them again
If you [G]only try turning a[D]round

[Verse 3]
[G]Two am, and I'm still awake, writing a son[F]g
If I get it all down on paper, it's no [C]longer
Inside of me, threatening the life it be[G]longs to
[G]And I feel like I'm naked in front of the cro[F]wd
'Cause these words are my diary,
screaming out [C]loud
And I know that you'll use them,
however you [G]want to

[Chorus 3]
But you [Am]can't jump the track,
we're like [C]cars on a cable
And [G]life's like an hourglass [D]glued to the table
[Am]No one can find the rewi[C]nd button, now
Yeah, [G]sing it if you'll un[D]derstand
[F]And [C]breathe, [G]just breathe
[F]Oh, [C]breathe, [G]just breathe
Oh, [F]breathe, [C]jus[G]t breathe
[F]Oh, [C]breathe, [G]just breathe
