Am  G  F  C
 
(Verse One)
 
     Am                 G
I'm taking over my body, back in control, no more shotty,
 
  F                               C
I bet a lot of me was lost, 't's uncrossed and 'I's undotted,
 
  Am                        G
I fought it a lot and it seems a lot like flesh is all I got,
 
F                   C
  Not anymore, flesh out the door, swat,
 
Am                      G
I must've forgot, you can't trust me,
 
     F
I'm open a moment and close when you show it,
 
C
Before you know it I'm lost at sea,
 
Am                                        G
  And now that I write and think about it,
 
                      F
And the story unfolds,
 
                                C
You should take my life, you should take my soul.
 
 
(Pre-Chorus)
 
Am      G
 
F       C
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
Am      G
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
F       C
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
 
(First Chorus)
 
F               Am   C             G Dm
   You are surrounding all my surroundings,
 
    F                   Am       C        G Dm
Sounding down the mountain range of my left-side brain,
 
F               Am     C             G Dm
   You are surrounding all my surroundings,
 
 F          Am         C        G
Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes.
 
 
(Post-Chorus)
 
Am      G       F                               C
                   and I?ll be holding onto you
 
Am      G       F                               C
                   and I?ll be holding onto you
 
 
Am  G  F  C (2x)
 
(Verse Two)
 
Am                                      G
Remember the moment you know exactly where you're going,
 
                F
'Cause the next moment, before you know it,
 
C                                         Am
Time is slowing and it's frozen still,
 
                        G
And the window sill looks really nice, right?
 
F                               C
You think twice about your life, it probably happens at night,
 
Am                 G
Right? Fight it, take the pain, ignite it,
 
        F                                           C
Tie a noose around your mind loose enough to breathe fine and tie it,
 
Am                      G
   To a tree, tell it, "You belong to me,
 
               F
This ain't a noose, this is a leash,
 
               C
And I have news for you, you must obey me."
 
 
(First Chorus)
 
F               Am    C             G Dm
   You are surrounding all my surroundings,
 
    F                   Am       C        G Dm
Sounding down the mountain range of my left-side brain,
 
F               Am        C             G Dm
   You are surrounding all my surroundings,
 
     F          Am       C        G
Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes.
 
(Break)
 
Am      G       C       F
 
 
Am              G       C              F
Entertain my faith. Entertain my faith  (x5)
 
 
 
(Bridge)
 
 
Am
Lean with it, rock with it,
 
G
When we gonna stop with it,
 
F                                       C
Lyrics that mean nothing, we were gifted with thought,
 
        Am                              G
Is it time to move our feet to an introspective beat,
 
                F                                     C
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat.     
 
(x4)
 
 
 
 
 
 
(Second Chorus)
 
Am      G
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
F                              C
    and I'll be holding onto you
 
Am      G
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
F                              C
    and I'll be holding onto you
 
Am      G
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
F                              C
    and I'll be holding onto you
 
Am      G
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
 
F                              C
    and I'll be holding onto you  (x2)

To match the song, transpose this +6. You can also do +5 with a capo on the first fret to make the chords easier for uke.
