intro : G – C – G – C
verse 1 :
G
nothing like you wish you were ,
C
your name is the only thing youre really sure of ,
sitting on the wrong side of 25 .
G
you keep your problems buried oh so deep
C
then wonder why you wake up crying ,
G C
at least the pain means youre alive .
chorus :
Em D
cause its been months and youve had time
C
to face what youve been running from , running from
Em D
yeah its been months and you can’t find
C
a reason why youre holding on , holding on .
break : G – C – G – C
verse 2 :
G
before you went away you said you thought
C
youd try your hand at being a writer ,
after all could it really be
G
worse than waking up on tuesday mornings
C
to sign away your pride for money?
at least youd have your dignity
G
yet all the while your mind is drifting back
C
to all those nights when you were happy ,
or at least you thought you were .
G
nothing here can take away the years you wasted
C
thinking you werent lonely ,
or alone if you prefer
chorus :
Em D
cause its been months and youve had time
C
to face what youve been running from , running from
Em D
yeah its been months and you cant find
C D
a reason why youre holding on , holding on .
ooh’s : C – Em – D – C x2
bridge :
C Em D
if all you wanted was somebody to hear you out ,
D C
to chase away the empty nights of fear and doubts .
C Em D
running away wont answer any of your prayers ,
D
but youre praying , yeah youre praying .
C D C
who are you praying to?
D C D Em G
is it the god you stopped believing it when he abandoned you?
ooh’s : C – Em – D – C x2
chorus :
C Em
cause its been months and youve had time
D
to face what youve been running from , running from
C Em
yeah its been months and you cant find
D
a reason why youre holding on .
