[Verse 1]
G
Catapult my love,
C
Leave it to the skies,
G
Struggle through the lows,
C
To make it to the highs,
G
I know you find it tough,
C
‘Cause you don’t see the signs,
G D/F# C
Caught up in the cross contamination of our minds.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D/F# G C
I know it’s hard to be cruel, to be kind,
D/F# G C C
I’ve come too far, and it’s too late to rewind.
[Chorus]
Em D/F#
It gets harder,
C
And harder, babe,
Em
‘Cause when you leave,
D/F#
I’ve no belief,
C C
And it shows,
Em D/F#
It gets harder,
C
And harder, babe,
Em
‘Cause underneath,
D/F#
I’m just a thief,
C*
Wearing your clothes.
[Verse 2]
G
If what they say is true,
C
I’ve used up every line,
G
And if it wasn’t you,
C
I think that I would be just fine,
G
You’re a pretty good distraction,
C
From the way I was before,
G D/F# C
Now I feel everything just a hundred times more.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D/F# G C
And I can’t deal with this faltering line,
D/F# G C C
We’ve come too far and it’s too late to rewind.
[Chorus]
Em D/F#
It gets harder,
C
And harder, babe,
Em
‘Cause when you leave,
D/F#
I’ve no belief,
C C
And it shows,
Em D/F#
It gets harder,
C
And harder, babe,
Em
‘Cause underneath,
D/F#
I’m just a thief,
C C
Wearing your clothes.
[Bridge]
G D/F#
When I go home,
G
I go crazy,
D/F# C C C
When I’m on my own, oh,
D/F#
And for my health,
G
You can’t save me,
D/F# C C
No, I need to save myself.
[Chorus]
Em D/F#
It gets harder,
C
And harder, babe,
Em
‘Cause when you leave,
D/F#
I’ve no belief,
C C
And it shows,
Em D/F#
It gets harder,
C
And harder, babe,
Em
‘Cause underneath,
D/F#
I’m just a thief,
C C
Wearing your clothes.
[Outro]
Em
‘Cause underneath,
D/F#
I’m just a thief,
C C
And everybody knows,
Em
That underneath,
D/F#
I’m just a thief,
C*
Wearing your . . . clothes.
