Intro  Dm Bb F C 


verse 1 
Dm *  
I'm beside you at the mirror, 
Bb * 
Hi, do I look familiar? 
F *                            C * 
Would you believe that we were happy once? 
Dm * 
True, like an answered prayer, 
Bb * 
you were mine and we were rare, 
F *                        C * 
Now I fight to find what's left of us 


Pre-Chorus 
  Dm            F   
I give I give I give  
          C 
You never take 
  Dm            F 
I bend I bend I bend 
            Bb 
So we won't break 

                F 
I've been doing cartwheels 
            Dm 
Anything to save us 
            C               Bb 
Anything to make you notice me 
                  F 
I've been running circles 
               Dm 
Always getting nowhere 
             C                  Bb 
Putting on a show but you won't see 
                F           Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels 
                F           Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels 

verse 2 
Dm 
Bright, as a sparkler light 
  Bb 
I write our names across your night 
F                        C 
It's only me who sees it fade away 
     Dm 
Into shame  
                              Bb 
That I could keep you on this plane 
                              F 
That you don't even want this love enough  
                  C 
To make you wanna stay 


Pre-Chorus 
  Dm            F 
I give I give I give 
          C 
You never take it 
  Dm              F 
I still I still I still 
              Bb 
Believe we'll make it 

                   F 
So I've been doing cartwheels 
            Dm 
Anything to save us 
            C               Bb 
Anything to make you notice me 
                  F 
I've been running circles 
               Dm 
Always getting nowhere 
             C                  Bb 
Putting on a show but you won't see 
                F           Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels 
                F            Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels ohooh 


Bridge 
      Eb  
After everything I've done  
          Gm 
you still run and disappear 
      Eb 
Maybe all I've got is hoping 
      Bb              C  
I can show you how it feels 

                   F           Bb 
So I've been doing cartwheels 
                F           Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels 

                F 
I've been doing cartwheels 
            Dm 
Anything to save us 
            C               Bb 
Anything to make you notice me 
                  F 
I've been running circles 
               Dm 
Always getting nowhere 
             C                  Bb 
Putting on a show but you won't see 
                F           Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels 
                F           Bb 
I've been doing cartwheels
