Em
I don't wanna be the one to
G
Take it on and break this one to you
D                              C
But I know he's not the one to keep you warm


[Verse 1]
         Em
'Cause I

I will always be the one to
G
Hold you close and see the storms you
D
Are heading towards
                    C
I cannot watch this go no more


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Em
Been keeping you close

Been keeping you close
              G
No matter how hard I try to ignore
            D
I'm staying bound to you
            C
I'm staying bound to you

                 Em
Been keeping you close

Been keeping you close
              G
No matter how hard you try to ignore
          D
I'm solid ground for ya
          C
I'm solid ground for ya


[Chorus]
      Em
And I
                    G
I can never let you go
                         D
I can't bear you hurt no more
                         C           Em
Feel you always reaching out for me
                    G
I can never let you go
                         D
Know we tried to burn it off
                        C
But I'm always reaching out for you
            Em
You keep me crawling
G
Crawling
D
Crawling
       C
On the ground


[Verse 2]

Yeah
Em
Fake smiles
              G
I can see you feigning from a hundred miles
                D
I can see tears draining from your honest eyes
             C
You go "I'm fine", but we know you're lying
                        Em
And you're trying to be feeling all the feelings you're supposed to
             G
Feel but I'm spinning you within like a coaster
              D
Yeah my eye's reading in between

All the things you think are unseen
       C
It's a weird thing

I'm feeling

You reaching


[Pre-Chorus]
                 Em
Been keeping you close

Been keeping you close
              G
No matter how hard you try to ignore
          D
I'm solid ground for ya
          C
I'm solid ground for ya


[Chorus]
      Em
And I
                    G
I can never let you go
                         D
I can't bear you hurt no more
                         C           Em
Feel you always reaching out for me
                    G
I can never let you go
                         D
Know we tried to burn it off
                        C
But I'm always reaching out for you
            Em
You keep me crawling
G
Crawling
D
Crawling
       C
On the ground



[Bridge]

Sometimes
    Em
I'm asking myself "Why do I stay?"
    G
I'm asking myself "Will you one day
        D                            C
Lift me up, lift me up or is all vain?"
                   Em
'Cause you keep me crawling
G
Crawling
D
Crawling
       C
On the ground

Feel you always reaching out for me
            Em
You keep me crawling
G
Crawling
D
Crawling
       C
On the ground
            Em
You keep me crawling
G
Crawling
D
Crawling
       C
On the ground


[Ending]

Sometimes
    Em
I'm asking myself "Why do I stay?"
    G
I'm asking myself "Will you one day
        D                            C
Lift me up, lift me up or is all vain?"
