[Intro]
D7sus2 Cmaj7 D7sus2 Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Of all the stars, you're the brightest
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Can you hold me again like this?
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Run your hands down my body
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Illuminate the sky; it's foggy
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I think I've found my purpose
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I'm holding it, the world has heard us
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I wanna tell you all my stories
D7sus2 Cmaj7*
My emotions, and things that shaped me
[Chorus]
D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
I can't tie all of my hair back
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
The things I've done and said, can't backtrack
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
I'm turning all the shades of lilac
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
And all the things I'd take, I'll unpack
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
Cause I'm sitting in a limbo
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
Waiting for the call to come home
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7 Cadd9
To drop everything and just go
D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7*
To answer the qualms I don't know
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Oh, oh
D7sus2 Cmaj7
[Verse 2]
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I'm in a battle with time
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I'm in a war, fighting to feel fine
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I don't understand what I feel
D7sus2 Cmaj7*
But all my breath, you seem to steal, oh
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I only live inside my head
D7sus2 Cmaj7
It's filled with life, it wants me dead
D7sus2 Cmaj7
It's searching for a reason
D7sus2 Cmaj7*
That I'm watching the rising run
[Chorus]
D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
I can't tie all of my hair back
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
The things I've done and said, can't backtrack
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
I'm turning all the shades of lilac
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
And all the things I'd take, I'll unpack
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
Cause I'm sitting in a limbo
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
Waiting for the call to come home
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7 Cadd9
To drop everything and just go
D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7*
To answer the qualms I don't know
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Oh, oh
D7sus2 Cmaj7
[Verse 3]
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I can't hold on to just one thought
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I'm floating through this space, astronauts
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Proabably feel the way that I do
D7sus2 Cmaj7
The lilac shade's turning blue
D7sus2 Cmaj7
But they are not searching for
D7sus2 Cmaj7
What I am; what I adore
D7sus2 Cmaj7
Cause I'm just looking for you
D7sus2 Cmaj7
I wonder how to find you
D7sus2* Cmaj7*
I wonder how to find you
Cmaj7
[Chorus]
D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
I can't tie all of my hair back
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
The things I've done and said, can't backtrack
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
I'm turning all the shades of lilac
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
And all the things I'd take, I'll unpack
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
Cause I'm sitting in a limbo
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7
Waiting for the call to come home
Cadd9 D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7 Cadd9
To drop everything and just go
D7sus2 Dsus2 Cmaj7*
To answer the qualms I don't know
D7sus2 Cmaj7
