Cm
I'm down to my skin and bone
D#
And my mommy, she can't put down the phone
Gm A#
And stop asking how I'm doing all alone, alone
Cm
But the truth is the stars are falling, ma
D#
And the wolves are out c-calling, ma
Gm A#
And my home has never felt this far
Cm
But all this driving
D#
Is driving me crazy
Gm
And all this moving
A#
Is proving to get the best of me
Cm
And I've been trying to hide it
D#
But lately
Gm
Every time I think I'm better
A#
Pickin' my head up, getting nowhere
Cm D#
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Gm A#
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Cm D#
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Gm A#
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Cm A#
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Cm
Now I'm down to my skin and bones
D#
My baby listens to me on the phone
Gm A#
But I can't help feeling like I'm all alone, all alone
Cm
The truth is, the stars are falling, babe
D#
And I'd never ever thought that I would say
Gm A#
I'm afraid of the life that I've made, I've made
Cm
But all this driving
D#
Is driving me crazy
Gm
And all this moving
A#
Is proving to get the best of me
Cm
And I've been trying to hide it
D#
But lately
Gm
Every time I think I'm better
A#
Pickin' my head up, getting nowhere
Cm D#
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Gm A#
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease

Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Gm A#
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Cm D#
I've been lyin' to them all
Gm
I don't need it anymore
A#
Don't you worry about me
Cm
I'll be fine if I can breathe
D#
I've been hidin' for too long
Gm
Taking shit for how I'm wrong
How I'm wrong
A#
Always wrong
Cm D#
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Gm A#
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease

Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby

Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
