Intro: C Em 
 
verse 1 
C                        Em 
 From the corner of your eye  
                            C 
 Down to the trap you set tonight  
                                Em 
 To give you nothing's what you need  
                                 Am 
 They give you so much you can't breathe  
                                   Em 
 I know the past is a lonely place  
                                                   Am 
 And given time you could find what you couldn't replace  
                                   Em 
 Don't pretend like you're up in a tree  
Em 
 The future's not where it used to be  
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
C                                     Em 
 It's so electric if we're pretending to  
                                C 
 Act like we don't know what to do  
                                        Em 
 To understand it, of where it's headed to  
                            C 
 Like we don't know what to do  
 
 
C              Em 
 We could fall  
                       C 
 Or we could just face it  
                    Em 
 And the times will go  
               C 
 We could fall  
 
 
verse 2 
                    Em 
 As I defend and you deny  
                       C 
 I can't tell what you like  
                                 Em 
 It's just the thoughts or so it seemed 
                            Am 
 Let's go outside so we can breathe 
                                   Em 
 I know the past is a lonely place  
                                                  Am 
 And now you wake in a bed where there's no other face  
                                         Em 
 Don't pretend like you're up in a tree 
Em 
 The future's not where it used to be  
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
C                                     Em 
 It's so electric if we're pretending to  
                                C 
 Act like we don't know what to do  
                                        Em 
 To understand it, of where it's headed to  
                            C 
 Like we don't know what to do  
 
 
C              Em 
 We could fall  
                       C 
 Or we could just face it  
                    Em 
 And the times will go  
               C 
 We could fall
