Verse:
Cmaj7
You said youʼd be there till the end
Am Dm
Now youʼre trying to forget
G7
Promises you never kept
Cmaj7
Like it was in my head.
Am Dm
Every single word you said
G7
It was burned into my chest
Dm
Now you just want me dead
G7
Itʼs another empty threat
Chorus:
Cmaj7
You hold me close
Am
Just to hold me down
Dm
You say you hate me
G7
But you need me now
Cmaj7
Youʼre outside waiting
Am
With the windows down
Dm
You said itʼs over
G7
But youʼre here right now
Verse:
Cmaj7
But when I wake up Iʼm alone.
Am Dm
When youʼre here youʼre on your phone
G7
Iʼm deciphering your tone
Cmaj7
You said that we should take a break
Am
Oh well
Dm
But youʼre always at my place
G7
Maybe you just like the pain
Pre-chorus:
Dm
I canʼt believe a word you say
G7
Thereʼs just something in the way
Chorus:
Cmaj7
You hold me close
Am
Just to hold me down
Dm
You say you hate me
G7
But you need me now
Cmaj7
Youʼre outside waiting
Am
With the windows down
Dm
You said itʼs over
G7
But youʼre here right now
F C E7 Am
Holding me down.
Bridge:
G7 F
One time we were happy
C
Now the walls are collapsing
E7
Two strangers just passing
Am
And itʼs too late now
F
Thereʼs no use in faking
C
Giving more than Iʼm taking
E7
If I bend more Iʼm breaking
Am
But thereʼs no way out
Outro:
G7 F
When you hold me close
C
Just to hold me down
E7
You say you hate me
Am
But you need me now
G7 F
Youʼre outside waiting
C
With the windows down
E7
You said itʼs over
Am
But youʼre here right now
G7 F
Holding me down
C E7
But thereʼs no way out
Am G7 C
When youʼre holding me down
Am Dm G7 C
