As soon as I saw this song on the Air1 vid, I fell in love with it and spent the
of the afternoon learning it. It's fairly easy, standard tuning. She sings it with the
on the 2nd fret.
There's two ways to play the intro, I use the first one, the second one is what's in the
video.
*You can play the Dsus4 whichever way you like, I usually play it either (xx0233) or
Sounds good either way.
**Note, I may not be 100% correct but it sounds alright to me. :)

You keep trying to get inside my head
While I keep trying to lose the words you said
Can't you see I'm hanging by a thread?

To my life, what I know, yeah I'm losing control and

So I'm d[Cadd9]ropping my guard, here's your [Dsus4]chance in my heart and
[Em7] Oh[Cadd9], no, my[G] walls are g[Dsus4]onna break
[Em7] So[Cadd9] close, [G]it's more th[Dsus4]an I can take
[Em7] I'm so[Cadd9] tired of [G]turning and [Dsus4]running away
Whe[Em7]n lo[Cadd9]ve ju[G]st [Dsus4]isn't
Cadd9 Em7 (strumming is different, listen to video)
Everything you want, but it's everything you need
It's no[Cadd9]t always happy endings, but it'[Em7]s all the in-betweens

[Cadd9]Your love is w[Dsus4]orth the risk
