Lyrics and Chords
[ Aadd9 =

2am and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
I don't love him, Winter just wasn't my season"
Yeah, we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize
Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason
/ Aadd9 - / G - / D - Aadd9 - / :
{Refrain, with girl}
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable and
Life's like an hourglass glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe, just breathe
Whoa, breathe, just breathe
/ Bm D / A E / Bm D / A E Esus2E / G D Aadd9 - / /
May, he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
"Just a day," he said down to the flask in his fist
"Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year"
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while
But my god, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him maybe I'll just sing about it
{Refrain, with boys}
There's a light at each end of this tunnel you shout
Cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
These mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turnin' around
/ Bm D / A E / Bm D / A E - /
2am and I'm still awake writing a song
If I get it all down on paper it's no longer
Inside of me, threat'nin' the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
'Cause these words are my diary screamin' out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to
{As refrain}
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable and
Life's like an hourglass glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand
And breathe, just breathe
Whoa, breathe, just breathe (3x)
