[Verse 1]
               G                          C
Trying to hold my head above water but my   feet are tired,
              G                     C
so, I rest to breath, quickly, slip down away;
                    G                          C
caught up in the violence of the waves I must evade and try to find my space.

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                         C
You don't understand, it's hard to cruise on,
Em                         C
knowing it's right, but it feels so wrong;
          G                          D
still the choir plays on, they ain't singing our song.

[Chorus]
G
Sometimes I wish that we never got this far,
         C
would've traded all my diamonds to be where you are;
        Em                                             D
just to sleep through the day and dance on through the dark.
    G
But it's like the air upped and left our lungs,
C
just like a balloon that's got no helium;
Em                                               D
learned how to fly so high but got burned by the sun
                  G
and burned by the love.

[Verse 2]
                G
Waiting for the clouds to break in,
                        C
would you send down the rains, you know I ain't been patient.
                         G
The paint is starting to flake and the fire keeps on raging,
               C
you still like pie, but my tastes are changing.

[Pre-Chorus]
Em                         C
You don't understand, it's hard to cruise on,
Em                         C
knowing it's right, but it feels so wrong;
          G                          D
still the choir plays on, they ain't singing our song.

[Chorus]
G
Sometimes I wish that we never got this far,
         C
would've traded all my diamonds to be where you are;
        Em                                             D
just to sleep through the day and dance on through the dark.
    G
But it's like the air upped and left our lungs,
C
just like a balloon that's got no helium;
Em                                               D
learned how to fly so high but got burned by the sun
                 (G)
and burned by the love.

[End-Chorus]
G
Sometimes I wish that we never got this far,
         C
would've traded all my diamonds to be where you are;
        Em                                             D
just to sleep through the day and dance on through the dark.
    G
But it's like the air upped and left our lungs,
C
just like a balloon that's got no helium;
Em                                               D
learned how to fly so high but got burned by the sun
                  G
and burned by the love.
