Tonality
Verse:
G
Iʼm down to my skin and bone
D
And my mommy, she canʼt put down the phone
Em
And stop asking how Iʼm doing all alone, alone
C
But the truth is the stars are falling, ma
GD
And the wolves are out c-calling, ma
EmC
And my home has never felt this far
Pre-Chorus:
G
But all this driving
D
Is driving me crazy
Em
And all this moving
C
Is proving to get the best of me
G
And Iʼve been trying to hide it
D
But lately
Em
Every time I think Iʼm better
C
Pickinʼ my head up, getting nowhere
Chorus:
G
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
D
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Em
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
C
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Verse:
G
Now Iʼm down to my skin and bones
D
My baby listens to me on the phone
Em
But I canʼt help feeling like Iʼm all alone, all alone
C
The truth is, the stars are falling, babe
GD
And Iʼd never ever thought that I would say
EmC
Iʼm afraid of the life that Iʼve made, Iʼve made
Pre-Chorus:
G
But all this driving
D
Is driving me crazy
Em
And all this moving
C
Is proving to get the best of me
G
And Iʼve been trying to hide it
D
But lately
Em
Every time I think Iʼm better
C
Pickinʼ my head up, getting nowhere
Chorus:
G
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
D
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Em
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
C
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Bridge:
G
Iʼve been lyinʼ to them all
D
I donʼt need it anymore
Em
Donʼt you worry about me
C
Iʼll be fine if I can breathe
G
Iʼve been hidinʼ for too long
D
Taking shit for how Iʼm wrong
Em
How Iʼm wrong
C
Always wrong
Chorus:
G
Take me back to the basics and the simple life
D
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Em
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
C
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
G
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
D
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Em
(Take me back to the basics and the simple life)
C
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
G
(Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease)
D
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
Em
(Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby)
C
Holdinʼ on tight and sleepinʼ at night
