( intro )
Em C Am C ( you can add A D between the C and Em if you like that better )

( verse 1 )
Em C A
my eyes have adjusted to dark and so is my heart
Am Em
the weight of the world has covered me
C
i’m in over my head
A
Am i living or dead
C A
can anyone hear me calling out
Am
i’m calling out

( chorus )
Em C
finally breaking so where are you now
A
it’s been such a long time
C
but i’ve tried to live without
Em C
i’m suffocating i need you to breathe
A
so reach down and pull me up
C Em C A C Em
pull me up before i Am buried beneath

( verse 2 )
Em C
i built this house on the shore
A
all i want was more
Am Em
but i felt the sand start shifting
C
i saw the cracks in the walls
A
i painted over them all
C D A
i tried my best to just ignore
C
i can’t ignore

( chorus )
Em C
finally breaking so where are you now
A
it’s been such a long time
C
but i’ve tried to live without
Em C
i’m suffocating i need you to breathe
A
so reach down and pull me up
C Em C A C
pull me up before i Am buried beneath

( bridge )
C D
i thought i was climbing out
C#
but it’s dragging me down
C Em
what’s hidden here with me
F#m
thought i was alone
Em C
but it pulls me deeper now
D
i can’t escape

( chorus )
Em C
finally breaking so where are you now
A
it’s been such a long time
C
but i’ve tried to live without
Em C
i’m suffocating i need you to breathe
A
so reach down and pull me up
C Em C A C ( 4x )
pull me up before i Am buried beneath

end with Em
