[Chorus]
G
Heartbreak can wait
Em
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
C
Yeah I know I gotta do this
D
But I'm makin' up excuses not to be alone
[Verse 1]
G
Still haven't made it up the PCH
Em
Still haven't kissed you in the pourin' rain
C
Birthday 'round the corner, couple weeks away
D
So I'm holdin' off
G
Things are goin' good, but they're not goin' great
Em
You've been workin' hard and I've been workin' late
C
The words that I've been thinkin' I don't really wanna say
D
So I'm holdin' off
[Chorus]
G
Heartbreak can wait
Em
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
C
Yeah I know I gotta do this
D
But I'm makin' up excuses not to be alone
G
Heartbreak can wait
Em
But I don't wanna waste your time
C
So I'mma take your hand and hold it like I'm never lettin' go
D
Before I say goodbye
[Post-Chorus]
G
(Heartbreak can wait)
[Verse 2]
G
Haven't slept a second in the last seven nights
Em
Livin' in my head, I'm rehearsin' every line
C
I know that there's no way that we're not gonna cry
D
So I'm holdin' off
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Desperate for my soul to softly say
D
"It's okay to stay a few more days"
[Chorus]
G
Heartbreak can wait
Em
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
C
Yeah I know I gotta do this
D
But I'm makin' up excuses not to be alone
G
Heartbreak can wait
Em
But I don't wanna waste your time
C
So I'mma take your hand and hold it like I'm never lettin' go
D
Before I say goodbye
[Instrumental]
G Em C D
[Bridge]
G
Wait a second, I feel like my stomach's in my throat
Em
Why is it the ones you love, the ones you hurt the most
C
Went as far as I can run but now I'm out of road
D
I gotta let you know, I gotta let you know
G
Wait a second, I feel like my stomach's in my throat
Em
Why is it the ones you love, the ones you hurt the most
C
Went as far as I can run but now I'm out of road
D
I gotta let you know
[Chorus]
G
But heartbreak can wait
N.C.
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
C
Yeah I know I gotta do this
D
But I'm makin' up excuses not to be alone
Heartbreak can wait
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
Yeah I know I gotta do this
But I'm making up excuses
Not to be alone
Still haven't made it up the PCH
Still haven't kissed you in the pouring rain
Birthday 'round the corner, couple weeks away
So I'm holding on
Things are going good but they're not going great
You've been working hard and I've been working late
The words that I've been thinking I don't really wanna say
So I'm holding on
Heartbreak can wait
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
Yeah I know I gotta do this
But I'm making up excuses
Not to be alone
Heartbreak can wait
But I don't wanna waste your time
So I'm 'a take your hand and hold it
Like I'm never letting go
Before I say goodbye
Heartbreak can wait
Haven't slept a second in the last seven nights
Living in my head, I'm rehearsing every line
I know that there's no way that we're not gonna cry
So I'm holding off
Desperate for my soul to softly say
It's OK to stay a few more days
Heartbreak can wait
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
Yeah I know I gotta do this
But I'm making up excuses
Not to be alone
Heartbreak can wait
But I don't wanna waste your time
So I'm 'a take your hand and hold it
Like I'm never letting go
Before I say goodbye
Wait a second, I feel like my stomach's in my throat
Why is it the ones you love, the ones you hurt the most
Went as far as I can run but now I'm out of road
I gotta let you know, I gotta let you know
Wait a second, I feel like my stomach's in my throat
Why is it the ones you love, the ones you hurt the most
Went as far as I can run but now I'm out of road
I gotta let you know, but
Heartbreak can wait
'Cause I'm too scared to let you go
Yeah I know I gotta do this
But I'm making up excuses
Not to be alone
