Anna Nalick – Breathe

Standard Tuning:

Verse
A G
2am and she calls me ’cause I’m still awake
D
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?
A
I don’t love him, Winter just wasn’t my season
A G
Yeah, we walk through the door so accusing their

eyes
D
Like they have any right at all to criticize
A
Hypocrites you’re all here for the very same reason

Chorus
Bm
‘Cause you can’t jump the track
D
We’re like cars on a cable and
A E
Life’s like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button, girl
A E
So cradle your head in your hands
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe, just

breathe

Verse
A G
May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
D
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
A
Ain’t been sober since maybe October of last year
A G
Here in town you can tell h ‘s been down for a while
D
But my god it’s so beautiful when the boy smiles
A
Wanna hold him maybe I’ll just sing about it

Chorus
Bm
Cause you can’t jump the track
D
We’re like cars on a cable and
A E
Life’s like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button, boys
A E
So cradle your head in your hands
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe, just

breathe

Bridge
Bm D
There’s a light at each end of this tunnel you shout
A E
Cause you’re just as far in as you’ll ever be out
Bm D
These mistakes you’ve made, you’ll just make them

again
A E
If you’ll only try turnin’ around

Verse
A G
2am and I’m still awake writing a song
D
If I get it all down on paper it’s no longer
A
Inside of me, threatnin’ the life it belongs to
A G
And I feel like I’m naked in front of the crowd
D
Cause these words are my diary screamin’ out loud
A
And I know that you’ll use them, however you want to

Chorus
Bm
Cause you can’t jump the track
D
We’re like cars on a cable and
A E
Life’s like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm D
No one can find the rewind button, now
A E
Sing it if you understand
G D A G D A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe, just
breathe
