Intro: F Dm Am 


F             Dm             Am 
    I've been tryna lose you baby 
F               Dm             Am 
    I'm getting kinda used to failing every try 
F               Dm             Am 
    I guess we both refuse to face it 
F           Dm              Am 
    Neither one of us will ever change our stripes 

F                  Dm                   Am 
Why are we dancing now that the party's over? 
F                  Dm                   Am 
Why are we running now that the race is done? 
        F            Dm                 Am 
Yea we try to let it go, but there's no way we can control it 
            F            Dm             Am 
If we can't pull the trigger, then baby let this linger 
 Am 
Linger 


F          Dm         Am 
On and on, on and on, on and on (Linger) 
F          Dm         Am 
On and on, on and on, on and on 


F         Dm             Am 
     So I keep the fire burning 
F             Dm              Am 
     But I'm wondering why I still can feel the cold 
F            Dm                      Am 
     And I squeeze and I squeeze as hard as I can 
F             Dm             Am 
     Hoping I will get some blood out of this stone 

F                  Dm                   Am 
Why are we dancing now that the party's over? 
F                  Dm                   Am 
Why are we running now that the race is done? 
        F            Dm                 Am 
Yea we try to let it go, but there's no way we can control it 
            F            Dm             Am 
If we can't pull the trigger, then baby let this linger 
 Am 
Linger 

F          Dm         Am 
On and on, on and on, on and on (Linger) 
F          Dm         Am 
On and on, on and on, on and on 

Lupe Fiasco: 
F                  Dm 
     We'll make it last 'till the last one 
Am 
Each release is just a lease that repeats the past one 
F                              Dm 
Song that never ends, that was Lamb Chop 
         Am 
Exodus, but the sex in us is a welcome mat back to Jamrock 
F        Dm 
      So even when the band stops 
Am 
Guitar still playin' even though the hand's not 
F                                Dm 
And all of this amounts to poltergeists and haunted houses so 
Am 
Even when we die, we'll still be alive 

F                  Dm                   Am 
Why are we dancing now that the party's over? 
F                  Dm                   Am 
Why are we running now that the race is done? 
        F            Dm                 Am 
Yea we try to let it go, but there's no way we can control it 
            F            Dm             Am 
If we can't pull the trigger, then baby let this linger 
Linger 
(x2) 


F          Dm         Am 
On and on, on and on, on and on (Linger) 
F          Dm         Am 
On and on, on and on, on and on
