[Short Instrumental Intro]
Abm B
 
[Verse 1]
AbmI can see the storms, in her eyes now
BI'm falling overboard, in the waves
DbmIn over my head and she's a high tide
EThat keeps pushing me away
AbmI thought that we would build this together
GbBut everything I touch just seems to break
DbmAm I your sail or your anchor?
E GbAm I the calm or the hurricane?
 
I feel the ground start to shake
EI hear a voice shouting, "No!"
Gb EBut there is no fucking way I'd leave you
 
 
[Chorus]
Abm BSo I'll just hold you like a hand grenade
Abm BYou touch me like a razor blade
Abm B Abm BI wish there was some other way right now
Abm BLike a house on fire we're wrapped in flames
Abm BI'd burn you if that's what it takes
Abm B Abm B GbTo let you know I won't let Go of you
 
 
[Verse 2]
AbmBut is the soundtrack to our lives
GbThe bang of a slamming door?
DbmWhat happens when we all start to feel like
E GbNothing matters anymore?
AbmEvery day like a chambered round
GbA trigger pulled, a hammer click
 
A breath we hold, a world outside I can't control
E GbNo matter what I Do
 
 
[Chorus]
Abm BSo I'll just hold you like a hand grenade
Abm BYou touch me like a razor blade
Abm B Abm BI wish there was some other way right now
Abm BLike a house on fire we're wrapped in flames
Abm BI'd burn you if that's what it takes
Abm B Abm B E GbTo let you know I won't let Go of you
 
 
[Bridge]
AbmAnd how is it a thing?
GbThat we just wanna hurt each other
EI'm waiting on for rain
GbFeels like is gonna rain forever
AbmSomeday you will learn
GbThat all I ever did was for you
EAnd I would Do it all again
GbI would Do it all again
 
 
[Chorus]
Abm B'Til then I'll hold you like a hand grenade
Abm BYou touch me like a razor blade
Abm B Abm BI wish there was some other way right now
Abm BLike a house on fire we're wrapped in flames
Abm BI'd burn you if that's what it takes
Abm B Abm BTo let you know I can't let Go of you
Abm B Abm B Abm B Abm B Abm B EOf you, of you, of you, of you
