Capo: 6th fret

[Verse 1]
Cadd9
Suspended in the air
              G
I hear myself breathing
Cadd9
Hanging by a thread
            G
My heart is barely beating
 
Cadd9
I haven't fallen yet
              G
But I feel it comin'
        Cadd9
Tell me would it be too much to ask
       G
If you break it to me gently
 
         Cadd9
That I'm waking the next day
              G
Without you beside me
          Cadd9
And who I hold onto today
              G
Tomorrow will just be a memory
 
     Cadd9                  G
That I will look back at all of this
    Cadd9
And wonder why I stayed in here
G
Just to watch you disappear
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
     Am          G/B     Cadd9
So I breathe and let you go
         Am          G/B     Cadd9
How do I breathe and let you go?
 
 
[Chorus 1]
                Cadd9
Before it's too late
                 G
I'll take a step away
                      Am
I know one word would make me go
                G/B
Rushing back to you
                     Cadd9
So I'll just shut my eyes
                     G
Forget that you were mine
                   Am
How do you go from making one your home
              G/B
And then just letting it all go
       D
Let me take it in
  Cadd9 G/B Am
Before  it  sinks in
 
 
[Verse 2]
Cadd9
Far beyond my reach
                  G
Is the future you promised
           Cadd9
Now what I never even had
             G
I have every reason to miss
 
      Cadd9
And I don't know
                       G
Where I could find the strength to let you go
         Cadd9
When the only life I've come to know
 
G                           Am G/B Cadd9
Packed his bags and left me alone
                 Am G/B Cadd9
He found another home
 
[Chorus 2]
                   Cadd9
So before it's too late
                 G
I'll take a step away
                      Am
I know one word would make me go
                G/B
Rushing back to you
                      Cadd9
And I'll just shut my eyes
                     G
Forget that you were mine
                   Am
How do you go from making one your home
              G/B
And then just letting it all go
       D
Let me take it in
  Cadd9 G/B Am
Before  it  sinks in
 
Cadd9   G
Ohhhhh...
Cadd9 G
Go...
Cadd9   G
Ohhhhh...
Cadd9
Go...
 
[Chorus 3]
                Cadd9
Before it's too late
                 G
I'll take a step away
                      Am
I know one word would make me go
                G/B
Rushing back to you
                  Cadd9
I'll just shut my eyes
                     G
Forget that you were mine
                   Am
How do you go from making one your home
              G/B
And then just letting it all go
       D
Let me take it in
  Cadd9 G/B Am
Before  it  sinks in
              Suspended in the air
I hear myself breathing
Hanging by a thread
My heart is barely beating

I haven't fallen yet
But I feel it comin'
Tell me would it be too much to ask
If you break it to me gently

That I'm waking the next day
Without you beside me
And who I hold on to today
Tomorrow will just be a memory

That I would look back at all of this
And wonder why I stayed in here
Just to watch you disappear

So I breathe and let you go
How do I breathe and let you go?

Before it's too late
I'll take a step away
I know one word would make me go
Rushing back to you

So I'll just shut my eyes
Forget that you were mine
How do you go from making one your home
And then just letting it all go

Let me take it in
Before it sinks in

Far beyond my reach
Is the future you promised
Know what I never even had
I have every reason to miss

And I don't know where
I could find the strength to let you go
When the only love I've come to know
Packed his bags and left me alone
You found another home

So before it's too late
I'll take a step away
I know one word would make me go
Rushing back to you

That I'll just shut my eyes
Forget that you were mine
How do you go from making one your home
And then just letting it all go

Let me take it in
Before it sinks in

(Ohhhhh...)
(Go...)
(Ohhhhh...)
(Go...)

Before it's too late
I'll take a step away
I know one word would make me go
Rushing back to you

I'll just shut my eyes
Forget that you were mine
How do you go from making one your home
And then just letting it all go

Let me take it in
Before it sinks in
