Verse:
And in come the [Am]strings
Playing my patience like a note that I [C]never had the guts to sing
I've been living with your [Em]lies
Cause my life don't feel quite right unless I'm swelling from the honeybee sting
And look at what you [Am]bring me, girl
Nothing but drama, [C]holding on strong to making me feel yo[Em]u-r woes
How long can we go until we're nothing but a pile of bones?
Stand tall in the [Am]cold, right?
You tell me that it's over
And [C]show me what it's like to have a stomach full of sulfur
And [Em]loving you has taught me to keep a hand on the holster
In case I gotta shoot a couple holes
But what the hell do [Am]I know, huh
Yeah, I don't know sht unless I'm ha[C]nging off the curve of your lips
I've been looking for an a[Em]ngel like you since the devil in me
Made it obvious it doesn't exist
Chorus:
[Am]How, how will I figure this [C]out?
Undertow dragging you [Em]down
Beneath my comfort zone
Where that love I gave you drowned
I'm freaking [Am]out
Speaking with your name in my [C]mouth
And I don't wanna live wit[Em]hout you
I just want to clear your clouds
Aw[Am]ay, aw[C]ay, a[Em]way
Verse:
I'm into the [Am]fake smiles
Walking 'round like a stray child
[C]Trying to find a quiet place to sleep
I don't know if you can [Em]feel it in the air when you step into the street
But I've been finding it a little hard to breathe
And look at what you [Am]brought me, girl
Nothing but pain
[C]Spending my money for a walk in the rain, I'm [Em]drained
And never wanted this to be the outcome
When I can never trust you and all I get is "how come?"
[Am]Why, after everything I gave you
Yo[C]u can share it with a stranger every time I went away
I've been [Em]lied to before girl
I see it in your face that you don't care about the broken heart I taste
But what the hell do [Am]I know?
I know the world will go blind if I [C]open up the cage of my mind
I've been running from an [Em]angel like you
Since the devil in me showed me heaven's not a bottom bottom line
Chorus:
[Am]How, how will I figure this [C]out?
Undertow dragging you [Em]down
Beneath my comfort zone
Where that love I gave you drowned
I'm freaking [Am]out
Speaking with your name in my [C]mouth
And I don't wanna live wit[Em]hout you
I just want to clear your clouds
Aw[Am]ay, aw[C]ay, a[Em]way (x3)
[Am]How, how will I figure this [C]out?
Undertow dragging you [Em]down
Beneath my comfort zone
Where that love I gave you drowned
I'm freaking [Am]out
Speaking with your name in my [C]mouth
And I don't wanna live wit[Em]hout you
I just want to clear your clouds
Aw[Am]ay, aw[C]ay, a[Em]way
Am-Am-C-C-Em
