Selection chords: Sarah Harris

Intro:
Oh my God, yes

Verse:
C
Iʼve come a long way since high school
Em
Just look at all these scars of mine
D
You should probably check my vitals
C
I swear it down, it feels real this time

C
Okay, okay, okay, okay, Iʼm sorry, itʼll pass
Em
Anxiety can be deceiving, lets the demons relax
D
Relax
              C
Just ride the feeling when you feel it b-b-beating too fast

Chorus:
C
Itʼs a throwback to the old days
Em
I slip back to my old ways
D
Itʼs the wrong time to break
C
Itʼs the right time to breathe

C
Tryna catch your breath in a hurricane
Em
Like tryna punch a hole in the cellophane
D
While everybody cеlebrates
C
But they donʼt know Iʼm trappеd

C   Em                              D
Show me how to numb the pain
                        C
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
So I can finally celebrate

Post-chorus:
C Em D C
No, itʼs so bad
No, absolutely not
Iʼm sorry to let you down, but, uh
Iʼm, Iʼm, Iʼm not gonna come tonight
Iʼm just
Iʼm just (Yeah)

Verse:
C
Iʼve come a long way from nowhere
 Em
Iʼve given up on friends of mine
D
ʼCause when I needed friends, they werenʼt there
C
A phone call coulda saved my life

C
Then I fall back and they crawl back
Like sore rats and I saw that
 Em
Fake love, I donʼt fall for that
So when they call me I donʼt call back no more
D                                          C
I donʼt wanna hate myself no more, no more, no more

Chorus:
C
Itʼs a throwback to the old days
Em
I slip back to my old ways
D
Itʼs the wrong time to break
C
Itʼs the right time to breathe

C
Tryna catch your breath in a hurricane
Em
Like tryna punch a hole in the cellophane
D
While everybody cеlebrates
C
But they donʼt know Iʼm trappеd

C   Em                              D
Show me how to numb the pain
                        C
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
So I can finally celebrate

Bridge:
C Em D C
(Na-na, na, na-na, na-na, na, na-na-na-na)
(Na, na-na, na-na, na, na-na) ʼCause I donʼt know how to celebrate
(Na, na-na, na-na, na, na-na-na-na, na) No, I donʼt, no, I donʼt, no, I donʼt, oh, no
Oh, no, I donʼt know, I donʼt know
(Na-na, na, na-na, na-na, na, na-na-na-na) Can anybody hear me?
(Na, na-na, na-na, na, na-na) Can anybody hear me?
(Na, na-na, na-na, na, na-na-na-na, na) No, oh
ʼCause I donʼt know how to celebrate

Chorus:
Itʼs a throwback to the old days (Old days)
I slip back to my old ways (Old ways)

Itʼs the right time to
(Breathe, hurricane) Tryna catch your breath in a hurricane
Like tryna punch a hole in the cellophane (Cellophane)
While everybody celebrates
