2 AM and she calls me cause I'm still awake
                                                                  D
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
                                                                    A
I don't love him. Winter just wasn't my season."

Yeah, we walk through the doors — so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize
Hypocrites. You're all here for the very same reason.

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

In May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
"Just a day," he said down to the flask in his fist
"Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year."

Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it

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

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

2 AM and I'm still awake writing a song
If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me
Threatenin' the life it belongs to.

And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out loud
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.

               Bm                                               D                                   A                                     E
But you can't jump the track, We're like cars on a cable, And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
Bm                              D                               A                                      E
No one can find the rewind button now, Sing it if you understand...
         G         D             A                 G         D          A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
        G           D            A                   G        D            A
Whoa breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
