Intro: Am C G C Em 

verse 1 
   Am          C 
My heart beats loud enough to deafen me 
    G        C            Em 
And you keep coming to me in my dreams 
    Am              C 
And lights flash, I beg that you'll appear 
             G                            C 
In flesh and tell me everything I want to hear 
         Em 
And then again 

F Am C G 

       F       Am 
If the pain is endless 
G 
How can I live, how can I live 
         F           Am 
When the weight is relentless 
   G 
To be with you now 

Feels like the only way out 

F                     Am 
Maybe you can make it better 
                C 
I don't need forever 
                 G 
Just find me somehow 
              F 
And if you're unsure 
                       Am 
'Cause we've been here before 
                  C 
I don't want more than for 
               G 
You to talk me down 
                     F    Am 
And love me just for now 
                 C     G 
Love me just for now 


verse 2 
   Am              C 
My mind plays with you like you're its favorite game 
    G         C             Em 
And I shake addicted to the drug I crave 
    Am          C                          G 
And I'm trapped carrying this burden on my back 
                         C          Em           F 
But I won't let you fall even if my body cracks 
Am                     C 
Even if my body cracks 
G 
I don't need my body 

       F       Am 
If the pain is endless 
G 
How can I live, how can I live 
         F           Am 
When the weight is relentless 
   G 
To be with you now 

Feels like the only way out 

F                     Am 
Maybe you can make it better 
                C 
I don't need forever 
                 G 
Just find me somehow 
              F 
And if you're unsure 
                       Am 
'Cause we've been here before 
                  C 
I don't want more than for 
               G 
You to talk me down 
                     Am 
And love me just for now 
                 C     G 
Love me just for now 

Bridge 
  Am 
I can't erase what we had 
               F 
So please understand 
               G 
It's not how I want this to be 
Am 
Yet I'm chained to the past 
                F 
And I'm sinking fast 
                 G 
Not how I wanted you to see me 

       F       Am 
If the pain is endless 
G 
How can I live, how can I live 
         F           Am 
When the weight is relentless 
   G 
To be with you now 

Feels like the only way out 

F                     Am 
Maybe you can make it better 
                C 
I don't need forever 
                 G 
Just find me somehow 
              F 
And if you're unsure 
                       Am 
'Cause we've been here before 
                  C 
I don't want more than for 
               G 
You to talk me down 
                     F    Am 
And love me just for now 
                 C     G 
Love me just for now
