[Intro]
Em C Dsus2
Somehow I always knew
Em C Dsus2
I’d bite the curb out spills the proof
Em C Dsus2 Em
The letter in your pocket now I can’t escape the truth
C Dsus2
Surprises so violent stop with the silence
D Em C
Who is she to you
[Verse 1]
Em C D
Tell me why tell me why my whole world’s starting to shake
Em C D
Cause ain’t nobody ever tell you what it feels like when you’re bout to break
Em C D Em
I get nervous, tell me what’s her name
C D
I see a lot of missed calls and now I’m going off
D
Don’t tell me it’s ok
Em C D
A storm is swallowing this interstate
Em C D
When it rains it pours and the pain is coming in waves
Em C D Em
Stay surfaced, love can’t hold you down
C D
So I will drive
[Chorus]
Em C
Slow me down
Dsus2
I’m burning out of control
Em C Dsus2 C
So far from heaven now (Pull me back)
Em C
Slow me down
Dsus2
It’s like you’ve stolen my soul
Em C Dsus2
So far from heaven now
[Verse 2]
Em C D
I can’t stand that streetlight, I’m rolling out of bed
Em C D
Again I belong to the night, I’m a mess
Em C D Em
Pull me over, I can’t forget her name
C D
Or my urge to put this barrel to your face
Em C D
This storm is swallowing my sanity
Em C D
And all our memories are tainted with her cheap perfume
Em C D
Eighteen years thrown away in a day
Em C D
Somebody stop me now, before I get to you
[Chorus]
Em C
Slow me down
Dsus2
I’m burning out of control
Em C Dsus2 C
So far from heaven now (Pull me back)
Em C
Slow me down
Dsus2
It’s like you’ve stolen my soul
Em C Dsus2
So far from heaven now
[Break]
Em C
My son, I gotta thank you for calling
D Em
Not sure who I would be if you stopped looking out for me (You stopped looking out for me)
C D
Somehow I always knew (Let me know when I need to)
Em C D
Slow you down, you’re burning out of control
Em C D
So far from heaven now
[Chorus]
Em C
Slow me down
Dsus2
I’m burning out of control
Em C Dsus2 C
So far from heaven now (Pull me back)
Em C
Slow me down
Dsus2
It’s like you’ve stolen my soul
Em C Dsus2
So far from heaven now
[Outro]
Em C
You’ve got to slow me down
D
I’m burning out of control
Em C D C
So far from heaven now (Pull me back)
Em C
Slow me down
D
It’s like you’ve stolen my soul
Em C D
So far from heaven now
