[Verso 1]

Am                 F 
Can't give you space 
           C                      G 
'Cause I'm scared you might run away 
Am                F 
Can't quit the chase 
         C                      G      
'Cause I fear you might hit the brakes, wait 

Am      F 
I'm sorry 
C                            G 
Nothing's makin' sense right now 
Am         F 
Keep talkin' 
        C                      G 
When I'm nervous I can't slow down 
Am      F 
I'm sorry 
    C                     G 
The truth is I'm freakin' out 
       Am                   F 
'Cause everything I love I lose 
    C                      G 
And I don't wanna lose you too 


[Refrão]

       Am         F 
Everytime I hold on 
    C               G 
It slips through my hands 
          Am        F 
Everytime I come on too strong 
   C             G 
I feel you pull back 
  Am             F 
I gotta learn, gotta learn to let go 
C            G 
Gotta learn, gotta learn 

             Am    F 
Everytime I hold on 
    C                G 
It slips through my hands 
   Am     F 
I slip 
   C                G 
It slips through my hands

            Am   F 
Can't get a grip 
      C                         G 
These emotions, they just won't fray 
         Am   F 
Where do I fit 
        C                  G   pause 
In your life, in your everyday, hey 
    Am    F 
I'm sorry 
C                            G 
Nothing's makin' sense right now

Keep talkin'

When I'm nervous I can't slow down

I'm sorry

            Am     F 
Everytime I hold on 
    C               G 
It slips through my hands 
  Am           F 
I slip back to old habits 
C           G 
Calling you way too much 
Am     F 
Crazy, my antics 
C            G 
Just need you way too much 
Am      F 
Back to old habits

         Am       F 
Everytime I hold on 
   C                G 
It slips through my hands
