capo 1st fret
 
G D Em7 D G D A
 
VERSE
G                  D
It's 4 am and I'm wide awake 
Em7        D
waiting for my thoughts to fade 
G               D            A
a flickering of all of my mistakes 
G                       D
and as the light starts creeping in 
  Em7
I slowly feel 
   D
the day I'm missing 
    Bm          D               A
but I won't even know where to begin 
 
CHORUS
     Bm
do I push too hard 
  D
I fall too fast 
  Em             D
a moment never seems to last 
       G         D             Asus4
and will I stop long enough to know 
 
 
A                 G
'cause everybody burns 
                     D         Asus4
and when it starts to hurt, I cry 
A                G
I feel it in my veins 
                D          A
I just cant walk away, this time. 
 
VERSE
G                 D
your words circle in my head 
      Em7                 D
and weigh so heavy on my chest 
    G           D            A
and I'm crushed by your expectation 
G            D
I only want to do some good 
   Em7                Bm
to dumb to know if i could 
    G             D               A
and i just wanna feel the days I'm in 
 
         G
and do I go too far 
     D
not far enough 
    Em              D
why can't I keep my big mouth shut
    G               D              A
and do we lead the life that we should 
                 G
and everybody burns 
                     D         Asus4
and when it starts to hurt, I cry 
                G
I feel it in my veins 
                 D          A
I just cant walk away, this time. 
 
G     D            Bm
did I say too much again? 
            A        G
I'm just a girl in a panic 
     D           A
if I tell you my truth 
 A              G
am I getting through? 
  G          D               Bm
and it just seems I should confess 
       A        G
who am I to pretend? 
G       D         A
this is more than I can carry 
 
                 G
'cause everybody burns 
                     Dsus2    Asus4
and when it starts to hurt, I cry 
A                G
I hold my head up high
                D          Asus4
I know I'll be alright this time. 
A                G
I feel it in my veins 
                 D          A
I just cant walk away this time. 
 
G D A x2

this time
 
G                  D
it's 4 am and im wide awake 
Em7             D
waiting for my thoughts to fade  
        G          D                A
and it's time like these I see your face
