Intro- A

A                                       G
2 AM 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"
                                                  G
Yeah we walk through the doors, 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

         Bm                                D
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
      A                         E
And 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
And breathe... just breathe,
      G    D       A
Oh breathe, just breathe

A                                     G
May he turned 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
                                               D
"Just a day" he said down to the flask in his fist,
                                                A
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year."
                                                G
Here in town you can tell he'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.
         
        Bm                                D
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
      A                         E
And 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
And breathe... just breathe,
      G    D       A
Oh breathe, just breathe

          Bm                          D
There's a light at each end of this tunnel,
                          A                               E
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
Bm                               D
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
A                           E
If you'd only try turning around.

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

        Bm                                D
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
      A                         E
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
Bm                  D
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
A                   E
Sing it if you understand.

      G     D       A
and breathe, just breathe
       G     D       A
woah breathe, just breathe,
      G    D        A
Oh breathe, just breathe,
      G    D        A
Oh breathe, just breathe.
