Bm F#m
I've been thinking back to when we used to share a drink on midnight walks.
Bm F#m
When you'd pretend your winter breath was cigarette smoke in your lungs.
Bm A
I'd fight the urge to give you all the worst advice about the ones you liked.
( A )
(You called it chemistry, I called it earning bragging rights)
Bm A
Knowing damn well if I told you how I felt, I'd crack the ice.
Bm
Roll the dice.
G Em Bm A G
You're just a second away from being in love or alone.
Em Bm A G E Bm A G Em Bm A
What you don't know, is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. It's a moment you wasted.
Bm F#m
I've been thinking back to that night on your front step when I held you as you wept.
Bm
We sat awhile in silence but I was screaming in my head.
( Bm )
How to tell you, if I should...
F#m
What to say, if I even could...
( F#m )
And if that moment came, would it simply hang forever...
D F#m
So I always try to live vicariously through my friends.
F#m
(You call it chemistry, I call it perfect timing instead)
D F#m A
Watching all them fall in love, and wondering if I will again.
G Em Bm A G
You're just a second away from being in love or alone.
Em Bm A G E Bm A G Em Bm A
What you don't know, is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. It's a moment you wasted.
G Bm
You're playing catch with 22.
G Bm
For once it's out you've got to choose.
G Bm
But if you choose to hold it in,
G D
then where's the chance to begin new love?
Bm
Who knows, maybe she's the one...
Em G
I bet there's so many more than just the one for all of us.
G Em Bm A G
You're just a second away from being in love or alone.
Em Bm A G E Bm A G Em Bm A
What you don't know, is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. It's a moment you wasted.
G A F#m Bm Em
Just falling asleep with you is enough to keep me hanging on,
G A F#m Bm D
whether or not we ever evolve.
G A F#m Bm Em
If all that we are is paint on a wall, waiting to peel off,
G A F#m Bm
then poison the well and pour me a cup.
D
Drink up!
