Chorus:
Bm
I wish that I could have the nerve
    G
To tell you those three little words
   D
"I L-O-V-E Y-O-U"
     A
Was that so hard for me to do?
  Bm
Eeny-meeny-miny-moe
    G
I never should've let you go
     D
You were the one, but now you're gone
    A
And I'm just left here holdin' on

Post-chorus:
Bm
To everything I can
          G
But you're slippin' through my hands
     D                  A
You said that we were solid
         A       Bb        Bm
But it's feelin' more like sand
 Bm
And now I'm in my head
 G             D
Tryna understand
       A       A    Bb         Bm
Sometimes even good things end

Chorus:
Bm
Mm-mm, mm-mm
G
Mm-mm, mm-mm
D            A
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm

Verse:
Bm
All of these times you slid on by
           G
All of these flames that I let die
        D
Just a few words and I'd be fine
        A            A    Bb    Bm
Just a few words and you'd be mine
         Bm
Only war here is in my mind
         G
A court of my fears won't let me fight
         D
Should've put my heart on the line
     A         A   Bb     Bm
Now you're gone

Pre-chorus:
Bm
Can't always get what you want
Bm
Sometimes you play your cards wrong

And I'm just left here holdin' on

You said that we were solid
             A    Bb       Bm
But it's feelin' more like sand
Bm                   G
And now I'm in my head (Now I'm in my head)
            D
Tryna understand
          A             A    Bb   Bm
Sometimes even good things end

Bridge:
 Bm                  G
I'm learnin' to let go
                        D
Of what I can't control now
                       A
You slipped through my hands
              A    Bb    Bm
And now they're gettin' cold
Bm                   G
I'm learnin' to let go
                         D
Though it's not what I hoped
                     A
No point in holdin' on
    A
You're already gone
