Selection chords: Katie Paterson

Intro: Am

Verse:
 Am                             Dm
I tried my best to not let you go
 Dm                  G
I donʼt like the view
  G
From halfway down
       Am                           Dm
Just promise me that it wonʼt be slow
         G
Will I feel the impact of the ground?

   Am                                Dm
I tried to be something that Iʼll never be
     Em
Why waste another precious hour?
 Em
Why waste another precious ounce?
     Am                            Dm
Iʼd rather leave somewhat of a legacy
    G
Familiar
G
A thought thatʼs so familiar

Chorus:
                 Am            Dm
Let me close my eyes with dignity
              Em
Letʼs end it all, the worldʼs not far behind
    Am
So whatʼs the point of staying?
     Dm                       G
Itʼs going up in flames, I know
  G
Yes, I know, ooh
     Am
Oh oh oh

Am
Hey hey
Am
Oh oh
 Am
(Hey)

Verse:
  Am              Dm      Em        Am
Just hold my heartbeat close to you
           Dm             Em        Am
Remember how it always beats for you
            Dm       Em         Am
Iʼm falling at the speed of light
            Dm                  Em           Am
Iʼm staring at your shrinking face, donʼt cry

             F       G        Am
You know my heart belongs to you
          F              G           Am
One last time, say that you want me too
          F           G       Am
The only words that gave me life
           G                  Am
Now Iʼll see you on the other side

Bridge:
Am      F   Em     Am
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
       F   Em     Am
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
       F   Em     Am
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
       F   Em      F G
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh, mama, Iʼll pray
             F
Iʼm running away
    G
Oh oh
     Am
Hey hey (Oh, no)
 Am  C
Oh oh

     Em F
Hey hey
F                       G
Is a threat not a promise? (Mmm)
                        Am         Em
If youʼre looking for rage (Mmm, oh)
                         F G
If youʼre looking for raginʼ
           Am  Em
Quiet for days

               F
Baby, running away
      G
Ayy yeah
                        Am
Itʼs a threat, not a promise
                     Em
Itʼs a threat, not a promise
