[Intro]
Em  G  Cadd9  G


[Verse]
Em               G          
I wanna tell you I'm sorry, 
Cadd9        G
But what’s a couple words?
Em             G             
Drops in the Pacific between 
Cadd9        G
us,
Em               G          
I wanna tell you I'm sorry, 
Cadd9        G
Not that I'd go back
Em          G            Cadd9  
Just that I miss what it was
      G



[Chorus]
    Em         G       Cadd9   G
But I’ve got a bad habit of holding 
my
Em             G       Cadd9   G
tongue
Em         G   Cadd9    G
I've got a bad habit of holding my
Em         G       Cadd9     G
Tongue

              Em          G
I woke up bereft, With no poetry 
left,
       Cadd9                G
Except that to be found, In sweat 
stains and coffee
Em                   G
Grounds, What's left of the energy 
spent
       Cadd9           G
Keeping my feet nailed down
         Em                   G
But life abounds, Light resounds
       Cadd9             G
In cathedrals and border towns
      Em            G
And I love you even now
  Cadd9         G
I love you even now


[Chorus]
    Em       G       Cadd9       
But I got a bad habit
      G

    Em           G          Cadd9
And I wanna tell you I'm sorry, 
                 G
You and the other ones
    Em         G             
But somehow we don't Keep in 
Cadd9        G
touch
Em           G          Cadd9   
I wanna tell you I'm sorry, Look
         G
 back and laugh and say
Em            G             
God, it is so hard, Growing 
Cadd9                 G
up

    Em         G      Cadd9 G
But I've got a bad habit of holding 
my tongue
    Em         G      Cadd9 G
But I've got a bad habit of holding 
my tongue


[Bridge]
           Em       G
Weeks like these, I wish we were 
still speaking
        Cadd9                      
Are you pleased with the pieces, Of
 G
 me you’ll be keeping?
    Em                      
You should be, cause life is 
 G
fleeting
                Cadd9              
And if while we lean toward death, 
        G
We lock eyes with meaning
Em              G              
Gleaming and profound, Then we 
Cadd9        G
walk on holy ground
     Em            G      Cadd9  
So I love you even now, I love 
       G
you even now


[Chorus]
    Em       G       Cadd9         G
But I got a bad habit
Em       G       Cadd9             G
I got a bad habit
Em       G       Cadd9           
I got a bad habit,             Of 
  G
holding my
Em       G       Cadd9           
tongue,                        Of 
  G
holding my
Em       G       Cadd9           
Tongue,                        Of 
  G
Holding my
