[Intro]
              Am Em Am Em
I don't wanna
 
 
[Verse]

Am
Rat race, place to place, 

adding weight
Em
Tendencies on repeat, innit
Am
Benefit with a shoe with no lace
Em
Take the seat 

with the crease on it
Am
I don't mind if it's lonely,
Em
I don't mind if it's fair
Am
I don't care, you control me,
Em
Leading me anywhere
 
 
[Chorus]
              Am         
I don't wanna backslide to 
           Em
where I've started from,
           G     
There's no chance 
                   Am
I will shake this again,
                  F     
'Cause I feel the pool, 
                C
water's over my head,
                    
Strength enough for 
G
one more time
               D
Reach my hand above the tide
          G            F
I'll take anything you have
                   C
If you could throw me a line
            G
I should've loved you better,
                  D
Do you think that now's the time
                 
You should let go?
N.C.
 It's over my head
 
 
[Verse]

Am
Bad place on a hundred dollar bass,
Em
Kind of wishing that

 I never did Saturday
          Am
Is that a stain? 

You should change
                  
Are you doing good?     
        Em
Did you solve all of your problems?
 
Thanks for asking, in a way but,
Am
Accidentally uncovered 

a new one yesterday,
     Em
What happened to what 

I brushed under the rug,
          Am              
I used to be the champion 
                       Em
of the world you can't see,
 
Now I'm drowning in logistics
 
 
[Chorus]

              Am           
I don't wanna backslide to 
           Em
where I've started from,
           G       
There's no chance  
                   Am
I will shake this again,
                  F    
'Cause I feel the pool, 
                C
water's over my head, 
                    G
Strength enough for one more time
               D
Reach my hand above the tide
          G            F
I'll take anything you have
                   C
If you could throw me a line
            G
I should've loved you better,
                  D
Do you think that now's the time
                  
You should let go? 
 F
(I don't mind if it's lonely)
             C
It's over my head 

(I don't midn if it's fair)
                  
You should let go? 
 G
(I don't care, you control me)
                 
It's over my head 
 D
(Leading me anywhere)
 
 
[Outro]

          G            F
I'll take anything you have
                   C
If you could throw me a line
            G
I should've loved you better,
                  D
Do you think that now's the time
                  F  
You should let go? 
                     C
It's over my head
                  G   
You should let go? 
                    D
It's over my head
              Am        Em Am Em
