[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][Em][Am][D]
[Am]I

[Verse 1]
[G][Em]
had a [C]hole in the middle
Where the [G]lightning [Em]went through
I told my [Am]friends not to worry
My wife would [G]know how to fix [Em]it
[C]Hole in the middle,
I'm seeing [G]less [Em]of you
[G]Now [Em]I'm [G]not [Am]go in[F]g
[Am]anywhere and I
Don't [G]know what I'll [Em]do[G]
[Em]It's

[Verse 2]
easy to lose your [G]grip
it's easy
[C][Am][E]

[Verse 3]
[Em]I never te[C]ll my decisions
to the [Em]ones I adore
I just [Am]show up like a
Bible breather [Em]outside the door
But when I [C]look out the window
I see [G]Girls [C]on TV living [G]and [Am]dying in LA and
It means [G]nothing to [Em]me[G]
It's [Em]easy to lose your [G]grip it's easy
[Am][B][E]

[Verse 4]
[B][Bsus4][B]
[Am]It's easy [Em]to l[C]ose your[Em] grip[G]
it's easy
[Am][B][E]

[Verse 5]
[B]
So I [C]walk through the streets I [Em]love
And I'm [Am]led to the house I b[G]uilt
So I [C]walk through the streets I [Em]love
And I [Am]lay in your bed
again
[G][Em]

[Verse 6]
[G][Em]
[G]Wak[Em]e up your saints Jenny,
I [G]need them
Jenny, I [Am]need them today

[Interlude 1]
[Em][G][Am]
[E][B]

[Verse 8]
I didn't [C]have to explain to
Her that [Em]I wasn't deaf
She sat me [Am]down and lit some
Colored candles [Em]over my head
She said you're [C]right, it's a living
But you're [Em]wrong for the life
You know you [Am]never should've listened
To my [Em]father's advice

[Verse 9]
It's [Em]easy to lose [Am]your [Em]grip[G]
it's [C]easy[Am][E][B]
It's [Em]easy to lose [Am]your [Em]grip
[G]it's easy
[Am][E]

And I'm [Am]led to the house I built

[C]the streets I [Em]love[G]
And I [Am]lay in your bed
again
[G][Em][G][Em]
