Tethered
View chords used in this chart
Dm F
I've shivered out a thousand thoughts of you
C
And no one else
Dm F
I found the weight of words to be too much
C
And not enough somehow
Dm F
I'm tethered to the ground you left me on
C
I sleep it away
Dm F
I'll twist the knife for you just one more time
C
I'll say I never knew you
G
I've got the way to make it right, I
Am F C
Put you out of my mind And out of my life
G
I've got the way to make it right, I
Am F C
Put you out of my mind And out of my life
Dm F
Should a man be ruled by questions he can't answer
C
An unspoken silence
Dm F
Pretend the storm will bring this house of cards down
C
And there's no rebuilding
Dm F
And the trees come down, the windows fall to pieces
C
These walls are crumbling
Dm F
And the rain, it comes inside our house and we're soaking
C
I think we're done for
G
I've got the way to make it right, I
Am F C
Put you out of my mind And out of my life
G
I've got the way to make it right, I
Am F C
Put you out of my mind And out of my life
F Am F
My life, my life, my life
C F Am F
My life, my life, my life, my life
C F
I'm never coming back here again, no
Am F
You can talk but I won't listen
C F Am F
I'm never coming back here again, no Oh, no
G
I've found the way to make it right, I
Am F C
Put you out of my mind And out of my life
G
I've got the way to make it right, I
Am F C
Put you out of my mind And out of my life
