[Intro]
D Gmaj7 D
[Verse 1]
G
All these love songs
D
Love songs might be no good for me
D
Keep on sellin' the dream
G
I wonder, how long?
D
How long will I wait to be happy?
D
All my friends ask me
[Pre-Chorus]
G
When am I gonna be settled down?
D
Buy a house, stay in town?
D
Like it's easy, like people on TV
G
I don't wanna just settle now
D
Put my fire underground

Just 'cause it's easy, oh
D
Honey, believe me
[Chorus]
A Bm
I wish I could just flip a switch
G Bm
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
A Bm G
'Cause I don't wanna be holdin' out forever

Oh, and if my type is just fireworks
G Bm
An act of faith, even though it hurts
A Bm G
To shut that door, am I holdin' out forever?
[Verse 2]
G
What if I'm wrong?
D
Wrong to think there's more to this story
D
My heart pounds and they know me
G
Am I headstrong?

Or foolish every night waiting for lightning to strike
A
While you've got blue skies?
[Chorus]

Oh, I wish I could just flip a switch

And just accept your kind of muted bliss
A Bm G
'Cause I don't wanna be holdin' out forever

To shut that door, am I holdin' out forever?

Am I holdin' out forever?
