Intro 
Em    C           Dsus2     
 Somehow I always knew 
Em            C                   Dsus2 
 I’d bite the curb out spills the proof 
Em          C              Dsus2                     Em 
 The letter in your pocket now I can’t escape the truth 
     C                Dsus2 
 Surprises so violent stop with the silence 
        D  Em C 
Who is she to you 

verse 1 
Em                   C                    D 
 Tell me why tell me why my whole world’s starting to shake 
Em                       C                                       D 
 Cause ain’t nobody ever tell you what it feels like when you’re bout to break 
       Em   C   D              Em 
 I get nervous, tell me what’s her name 
         C                       D 
 I see a lot of missed calls and now I’m going off 
 D 
 Don’t tell me it’s ok 
Em          C               D 
 A storm is swallowing this interstate 
Em                C                     D 
 When it rains it pours and the pain is coming in waves 
      Em   C    D               Em 
 Stay surfaced, love can’t hold you down 
     C     D 
 So I will drive 

Em       C 
 Slow me down 
Dsus2 
 I’m burning out of control 
Em           C      Dsus2  C 
 So far from heaven now   (Pull me back) 
Em       C 
 Slow me down 
Dsus2 
 It’s like you’ve stolen my soul 
Em           C      Dsus2 
 So far from heaven now 


verse 2 
Em        C               D 
 I can’t stand that streetlight, I’m rolling out of bed 
Em       C             D 
 Again I belong to the night, I’m a mess 
         Em C    D            Em 
 Pull me over, I can’t forget her name 
       C                D 
 Or my urge to put this barrel to your face 
Em             C             D 
 This storm is swallowing my sanity 
Em          C                              D  
 And all our memories are tainted with her cheap perfume 
Em        C            D  
 Eighteen years thrown away in a day 
          Em      C    D 
 Somebody stop me now, before I get to you 

Em       C 
 Slow me down 
Dsus2 
 I’m burning out of control 
Em           C      Dsus2  C 
 So far from heaven now   (Pull me back) 
Em       C 
 Slow me down 
Dsus2 
 It’s like you’ve stolen my soul 
Em           C      Dsus2 
 So far from heaven now

     D                                                    Em 
 Not sure who I would be if you stopped looking out for me (You stopped looking out for me) 
     C            D  
 Somehow I always knew (Let me know when I need to)
