Intro
A# D# A#/G D# x2
[Verse 1]
A# Gadd9
I was looking down at you smiling underneath
A#/G D#
For once I held you tight, but shadowed hands grabbed at me
A# Gadd9
You're head was in the clouds, now those clouds are in your head
A#/G F
It's when you needed me, so I listened to what you said
[Pre-chorus]
A#/G D#
Look another year went by,
A#/D
They keep passing by,
F
But damn I didn't even die,
A#/G D#
Too old and slow I've grown,
A#/D F
I fought time but lost
[Instrumental]
A# Gadd9 A#/G D#
[Verse 2]
A# Gadd9
It was love like a callus you scarred enough to be
A#/G D#
Tough and immune, your body adapts you see
A# Gadd9
To all above my head, and all below my feet
A#/G F
Know that's one freedom you'll never take from me
[Pre-chorus]
A#/G D#
Look another year went by,
A#/D
They keep passing by,
F
But damn I didn't even die,
A#/G D#
Too old and slow I've grown,
A#/D F
I fought time but lost
[Chorus]
A# F A#/D D#
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
A# F A#/D D#
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
[Break]

Hold tight, hold tight
A#/G Gadd9 A#/D F
[Chorus]
A# F A#/D D#
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
A# F A#/D D#
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
A# F A#/D D#
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
A# F A#/D D#
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
