(Verse 1)

C
Hold me close. I know it’s freezing.
C
Toes are numb. The sun is bleeding
Am                                     C
through the broken blinds in your free house.
C
Oh, I know it’s moved so quickly.
C
The floor - it shook, you fell into me.
Am                             C
Every moment makes me lose my breath.


(Chorus)

  Am       F            C
So hold me close in the back room of your house.
Am             F             C
 My lips won’t be the same again.
               Am      F             C
Well, you can take the heart that is beating from my chest
            F        G                C
and you can take the memories from my head.

(Verse 2)
   C
As we awoke beside each other,
     C
our innocence, it fell asunder
    Am                             C
and I would see that light go out again.
     C
Were we too young to not see clearly
    C
or old enough to finally keep
Am                             C
the whole world outside of our heads?


(Chorus)

  Am       F            C
So hold me close in the back room of your house.
Am             F             C
 My lips won’t be the same again.
               Am      F             C
Well, you can take the heart that is beating from my chest
              F          G             C
and you will free the memories from my head.

(Outro)

Am                F                    C
    You’re not a failure, you’re not a martyr,
                                  Am
you’re not the only one lost at sea.
           F                       C
I have seen things that made me stronger
                                     Am
and I have felt the shore pining for me.
      F         C
Did I want this?
      G         Am
Did I need this?
        F                    C     G
I’m the one who felt lost at sea. Oh,
             Am            F
we’re either lovers or ex-lovers.
     C
We cannot escape each other.
Am              F          C (let ring)
