G                  C
Even when I win, I lose
G                       C
Standing still in running shoes
Am              
With a face like glue
C
Am I gettin' through?


G                       C
Stepping out of your brown skirt
G               C
Sleeping in your black t-shirt
        Am
I heard every word
        C
And it felt like dirt


G               
You're living proof that a
B                       Em
god exists, but he's full of vengeance and
C
Creepy twists
G                       B
And I can't put my foundations down
Em                              C
Cos you're made of earethquakes that can level towns


Am
I'm still holdin' on,
C
Are you still holdin' on?


G             C
I need every hand on deck
G               C
Just to keep my self-respect
        Am
Look at what we've wrecked
          C
Have you got it yet?


G                       B
You get 10 points for difficulty
        Em              C
But for execution you get minus three
C                       B
All your friends are so razor sharp
           Em                        C
With their barbed-wire mouths full of poison darts


           Am
I'm still holdin' on
                C
Are you still holdin on?
           Am
I'm still holdin' on
                C
Are you still holdin on?


D               G
Oh what a joke this is
             Am                 C
But it's the punchline that I'm most afraid of
D               G
You're either hit or miss
            Am                  C               D
And I don't know which one I'd rather face up to


Yeah yeah yeah


G               C
I've got nothin up my sleeve
G                 C
I've got no more air to breathe
            Am
That's not what I need
         C
Can you help me please?


G                       B
And here's the thing that hurts the most
        Em                      C
You're lookin through me like I'm a ghost
G                       B
And I can't put my foundations down
            Em                      C   
Cos you're made of earthquakes that level towns


           Am
I'm still holding on
                C
Are you still holding on?
           Am
I'm still holding on
                C
Are you still holding on?
