Natasha Bedingfield - Lay Down

Cm
speechless , but the answers in my mouth
Cm
breathless , the emotions seeping out
Cm
beyond my control
Cm
you spoke to my silence , why so cold?

Gm
you ask for peace , i give you war
Gm
while you let go , i hold too tightly
Gm
i take my aim , you hit the floor ,
Gm Cm
i’m not ready to , lay down my arms

Cm
cracking , my defences breaking down
Cm
the unravelling , of a rope i put around me
Cm
you won’t take no for an answer

Gm
you ask for peace , i give you war
Gm
while you let go , i hold too tightly
Gm
i take my aim , you hit the floor
Gm Cm
i’m not ready to , lay down my arms

Cm
i didn’t know i was missing out , ’til you lost and i , i won
Cm
you made me realise my incompleteness alone
Cm
can no longer live by candlelight
Cm Gm
when you show me the sun , ohh

Gm
you ask for peace , i give you war
Gm
while you let go , i hold too tightly
Gm
i take my aim , you hit the floor ,
Gm Cm
i’m not ready to , lay down my arms
