Key: A major

Verse 1
A A 
 
Two am, and she calls me 'cause
G G 
 
I'm still awake
D D 
 
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?
A A 
 
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season
A A 
 
Yeah, we walk through the doors,
G G 
 
so accusing their eyes
D D 
 
Like they have any right at all to criticize
Hypocrites, you're all here for the very same
A A 
 
reason

Chorus 1
Bm Bm 
 
'Cause you can't jump the track,
D D 
 
we're like cars on a cable
A A 
 
E E 
 
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm Bm 
 
D D 
 
No  one can find the rewind button, girl
A A 
 
E E 
 
So cradle your head in your hands
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
And breathe, just breathe
G G 
 
Oh, breathe,
D D 
 
A A 
 
just breathe

Verse 2
A A 
 
May he turn twenty-one
G G 
 
on the base at Fort Bliss
D D 
 
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
Ain't been sober since maybe October
A A 
 
of last year
A A 
 
Here in town you can
G G 
 
tell he's been down for a while
But, my God, it's so
D D 
 
beautiful when the boy smiles
A A 
 
Want to hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it

Chorus 2
Bm Bm 
 
'Cause you can't jump the track,
D D 
 
we're like cars on a cable
A A 
 
E E 
 
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm Bm 
 
D D 
 
No  one can find the rewind button, boys
A A 
 
E E 
 
So cradle your head in your hands
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
And breathe, just breathe
G G 
 
Oh, breathe,
D D 
 
A A 
 
just breathe

Bridge 1
Bm Bm 
 
There's a light at each end of this
D D 
 
tunnel, you shout
A A 
 
E E 
 
'Cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
Bm Bm 
 
And these mistakes you've made,
D D 
 
you'll just make them again
A A 
 
E E 
 
If you only try turning around

Verse 3
A A 
 
G G 
 
Two am, and I'm still awake, writing a song
D D 
 
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer
A A 
 
Inside of me, threatening the life it belongs to
A A 
 
G G 
 
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
'Cause these words are my diary,
D D 
 
screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them,
A A 
 
however you want to

Chorus 3
Bm Bm 
 
But you can't jump the track,
D D 
 
we're like cars on a cable
A A 
 
E E 
 
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table
Bm Bm 
 
D D 
 
No  one can find the rewind button, now
A A 
 
E E 
 
Yeah, sing it if you'll understand
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
And breathe, just breathe
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
Oh, breathe, just breathe
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
Oh, breathe, just breathe
G G 
 
D D 
 
A A 
 
Oh, breathe, just breathe
