verse 1
C G
Everybody try to warm me
Em D6
You were poison from the start
C G
We had a love just like the movies
Em D6 C
Put a spell right on my heart
G
I guess that I was too blind
Em D6 C
I was too dumb to see it
G
I didn't wanna be right
Em D6 C
Guess I didn't wanna believe it
verse 2
C G
Now we're sitting at this table
Em D6
With nothing left to say
C G
Say you wanna stay together
Em D6 C
But I think it's just too late
G
Cause I just wanna be free
Em D6 C G
I cannot do this forever, No
No this is not me
Em D6 C
I deserve something better
Pre-Chorus
G
I was going too slow
Em D6 C
Watching life just pass me by
G
And now I'm going nowhere
Em D6
You're the reason why
[Refrão]
Chorus
C G
It's something like an anchor
Em D6
That won't let go of me

It's something like an anchor

Now I can barely breathe
C G
I don't wanna go down
Em D6
If I do I'm gonna drown

It's something like an anchor
Em D6
I can't I can't
Bridge

Take these chains off me
D6
I don't wanna go under
