[Verso 1]
 
    F                    C 
You hold my hand through turbulence 
    Am            G 
You sugarcoat the oxygen 
   F                   C 
My lungs are full, I'm sick again 
  Am              G 
I feel you coming on 
    Dm           C 
You never simply talk to me 
    F                    C 
You tell the truth about everything 
   Dm            C 
Of all of your afflictions 
     F              C 
That is my favorite one 
 


[Refrão]
 
Dm  C            F               C 
  Oh, well, it's turning out I'm better when 
Dm  C          F               C 
  Oh, when you stop and stick around 
    Dm  C   F                   C 
I'll  go anywhere you want, but then again 
Dm  C         F     C 
  I like this house 
 


[Verso 2]
 
    Dm           C 
You used to be a mystery 
    F                   C 
You bruise, you left an injury 
  Dm                        C 
I thought you lived through suffering 
    F               C 
But thank god I was wrong 
     Dm                 C 
Your family feels like family 
    F                C 
You see what I can't seem to see 
  Dm                  C 
I don't know where to put it all 
     F            C 
I'll put you in a song 
 


[Refrão]
 
Dm   C      F                C 
  Oh, I was burning out, but then you said 
Dm  C             F               C 
  Oh, "You should leave the light on" 
        Dm  C       F              C 
And I'll  go if you ask me to, but then again 
Dm      C       F   C 
  Don't drop me off 
Dm  C         F            C 
  Oh, well it can't be a coincidence 
Dm  C        F                  C 
  Oh, that I falter when you're gone 
     Dm    C       F                C 
And I  cope, but I promise you it's different 
Dm       C           F   C 
  You're strong, I'm not 
Dm       C           F   C 
  You're strong, I'm not 
 


[Ponte]
 
F         C 
 It's the shape of your hands 

Made me brave once again 
F      C            Dm 
 You became where I land 
        C 
Now you hold all of it 
 


[Verso 3]
 
    F                    C          Am G 
You hold my hand through turbulence 
    F             C      Am G 
You sugarcoat the oxygen 
   Dm                  C 
My lungs are full, I'm sick again 
  F               C 
I feel you coming on 
   Dm            C               F              C 
Of all of your afflictions, that is my favorite one 
 


[Refrão]

  Oh, well, it's turning out I'm better when 
Dm  C          F               C 
  Oh, when you stop and stick around 
    Dm  C   F                   C 
I'll  go anywhere you want, but then again 
Dm        C         F     C

  Don't drop me off 
Dm      C       F   C 
  Don't drop me off
