VERSE 1: 

Em                     G 
I'm backseat to your freeway 
            D                     
This could never be safe 
          A 
Cause, I might get lost in you 
Em                       G 
I'm just a little bit defeated 
              D 
I've got my reasons 
      G 
One being you're just passing through 



Em          G             
You know I love you but I'm 
D                A 
Feeling afraid, you never say 
Em            G              D 
One thing to keep me holding on 
     A 
You push me away 





Em         G 
Why do you lie beside me? 
          D 
When you never have time 
            A 
And you're fine without me? 



Em                  G 
And I, think it's pretty unlikely, 
           D 
That the words on your mind 
       A 
Could ever inspire me 
    Em            C          G     D 
To stay and love the way we are    
Em            C          G         D 
To stay and love the way we are 




VERSE 2:
 
Em                   G 
Every time you are lonely 
              D 
Why am I the only one 
A 
You come running to 
Em                     G 
Got me saying that "I love you" 
        D 
When I know that the truth is 
            A 
You could trade me for something new 



Em            G 
You keep me hanging like you're 
D             A 
So unaware, you're never there 
Em          G                   D 
you should know better but you don't 
                A 
And it's never fair 




 
Em         G 
Why do you lie beside me? 
          D 
When you never have time 
            A 
And you're fine without me? 




Em                  G 
And I, think it's pretty unlikely, 
           D 
That the words on your mind 
       A 
Could ever inspire me 
    Em            C          G     D 
To stay and love the way we are    
Em            C          G         D 
To stay and love the way we are 



BRIDGE:
 
G         D 
Somebody wake 
           C 
Somebody shake me from 
     D              G 
The hold she has on me 
         D 
I'm so afraid 
            C 
I wanna be saved but what 
        D              G 
if she won't let go of me 
D              G 
if she won't let go of me 


 
Em         G 
Why do you lie beside me? 
          D 
When you never have time 
            A 
And you're fine without me? 



Em                  G 
And I, think it's pretty unlikely, 
           D 
That the words on your mind 
       A 
Could ever inspire me 
    Em            C          G     D 
To stay and love the way we are    
Em            C          G         D 
To stay and love the way we are 
Em            C          G         D 
To stay and love the way we are
