[Intro]
C Em Am G C
 
[Verse 1]
    C
You don't believe in curfew, so you're staying out past 12
             Em
You know you really done it this time, you're too into yourself
           Am
You've got pictures of your parents, they don't occupy your shelf
G
You don't know what you're doing, but you're puttin' them through hell
 
C
That's the card you wanna throw, you really, ought to know
          Em
There are things in life that you can change, some you can control
        Am
Like an addiction to nicotine or an addiction to coke
G
Some of which are in your realm, the others have you in a choke
 
[Chorus]
C                 Em
Hold (hold) on to me
      Am                 G
Flora I (I) haven't felt you in weeks
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C
Lost all motivation when old Danny moved away
                 Em
You thought that you can never live up to standards that he made
                  Am
Well, guess what? You'll never live unless, you learn to be okay
G
The fact that time is fleeting and legs aren't long enough to chase
 
C
Fireball with chocolate milk and heaven hill will soak you stoke
Em
Keys to Dad's Camaro just to see how far it go
           Am
Now you're out of gas in Baltimore, and you can bum a smoke
          G
Should've thought that through before you put self in such a choke
 
[Chorus]
C                 Em
Hold (hold) on to me
      Am                 G
Flora I (I) haven't felt you in weeks
 
[Bridge]
Dm
When your engine fails
                  G
You'll find, your wheels although derailed
             C
Maintain and tucked and full of air
                E
You're safe and I'll just stay right there
 
           Dm
But if you wander off too far
               G
You won't know who you truly are
                C
Your tank, will drain and render out
          E
You won't get your car to start
 
           Dm
You'll run away and flee the scene
                G
You'll lose the chance you have to see
                C
You'll lose the chance you have to be the person
E                                 Dm
You had always dreamed, but still believe
                                G
And you don't know what's there to do when you're alone
              C                               E
What has been keeping you afloat, but has you held in such a choke
 
[Chorus]
C                 Em
Hold (hold) on to me
      Am                 G
Flora I (I) haven't felt you in weeks
C                 Em
Hold (hold) on to me
      Am                       G
Flora why (why) do you have me losing sleep?
