Intro
[C] [Am] [G] [F]
Verse 1
Things were [C]happening
I felt the [Am]weight of the [G]expectation on my [F]chest
My mind was [C]traveling
But I [Am]swear that I don't [G]remember where it [F]went
They said things will grow [C]in
So why [Am]do I feel like [G]nothing at all is [F]left?
So I'll keep on [C]moving
If I'm [Am]standing still then I'll [G]feel the [F]emptiness
Pre-Chorus
'Cause I get so [C]lonely, and you get so [Am]low
And [G]I looked so [F]stupid when I lose control
I'm alone in my [C]bedroom, and the walls are caving [Am]in
And I [G]thought I'd be [F]happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
Chorus
[C] 'Cause I'm feeling [Am]down, but I'm [G]falling up
[F]And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
[C] As I breathe the [Am]air, [G]into my lungs
[F] I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
Post-Chorus
[C]Ooh, ooh
Verse 2
I gotta [C]change me
And if I [Am]wake up now there's a [G]chance to start [F]again (Hmm, hmm)
But if I [C]wait
Could I [Am]get back to the [G]place where it [F]all began before?
Pre-Chorus
I got so [C]lonely, and you got so [Am]low
And [G]I looked so [F]stupid when you came to my show
I'm alone in the [C]spotlight, and the walls are caving [Am]in
And I [G]thought I'd be [F]happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
Chorus
[C] 'Cause I'm feeling down, [Am]but I'm [G]falling up
[F]And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
[C] As I breathe the [Am]air, [G]into my lungs
[F] I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
Post-Chorus
[C]Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And I [Am]hate the man that I've [G]turned into
[F]Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And I've come so far, what did I lose?
[C]Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
And I swear [Am]to God I will [G]make it through
[F]I'll make it through
Pre-Chorus
'Cause I get so [C]lonely and you get so [Am]low
And [G]I looked so [F]stupid when you came to my show
I'm [G]alone in the [Am]spotlight, and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be [F]happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
Chorus
[C] 'Cause I'm feeling down, [Am]but I'm [G]falling up
[F]And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
[C] As I breathe the [Am]air, [G]into my lungs
[F] I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
