[Intro]
Abm Ebm Db Abm Bmaj7 Ebm
■   ■   ■  ■   ■     ■  
Abm Abm7 Abm
■   ■    ■  
           Abm                    
How do you think I've lost so much


[Chorus]
       Abm                         
I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch
           Abm                          
How do you expect I will know what to do
         Abm                          
When all I know is what you tell me to


[Verse]
Ab7 Abm Ab7 D7 Ab7 D7 Ab7 D
■   ■   ■   ■  ■   ■  ■   ■
                            D        
What do I do to ignore them behind me
                         Gb     
Do I follow my instincts blindly
   Gb7                                    
Do I hide my pride behind these bad dreams
                   B                          
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening
                          B       
Do I let it go and try to stand it
                          Gb       
Or do I try to catch them redhanded
Gb7                                        
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness
                                 B         
Or do I trust nobody and live in loneliness
          Abm7                                    
Because I can't hold on when I'm stretched so thin
                               Abm7       
I make the right moves but I'm lost within
                  Db             
I put on my daily façade but then
Abm7                            
I just end up getting hurt again


[Chorus]
   Ab7             
By myself I ask why
        Ab7           
I can't rely on myself
D7    Ab7
I ask why
        Ab7           
I can't rely on myself
  Abm   E    Db
I can't hold on
Ab7 Abm          E       Db   Ab7
■   It's all too much to take in 
  Abm   E      
I can't hold on
Db   Abm      Ab7 E       Db      Db7
With thoughts of  failure sinking in 


[Verse]
   Abm7                          
If I turn my back I'm defenseless
    Abm7                         
And to go blindly seems senseless
   Abm                                 
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
     Abm                                         
Then they'll take from me 'til everything is gone
   Abm                          
If I let them go I'll be outdone
       Abm7                              
But if I try to catch them I'll be outrun
                                      Db    
If I'm killed by the questions like a cancer
             Abm                                
Then I'll be buried in the silence of the answer


[Chorus]
Ab7                
By myself I ask why
                Ab7   
I can't rely on myself
D     Ab7
I ask why
                Abm   
I can't rely on myself
        E    Db
I can't hold on
Abm              E       Db   Abm
■   It's all too much to take in 
        E      
I can't hold on
                 Db      Abm       
With thoughts of failure sinking in


[Bridge]
E          Abm                    
How do you think I've lost so much
    A  Abm                         
I'm so afraid that I'm out of touch
                  Abm                   
How do you expect I will know what to do
         A      Abm                   
When all I know is what you tell me to


[Chorus]
Abm      
Don't you
                             Ab7
I can't tell you how to make it 
                             Ab7
No matter what I do how hard I  
        D7               Ab7   
I can't seem to convince myself
Ab7                     
I'm stuck on the outside
Abm      
Don't you
E7                   Abm7    Ab7
I can't tell you how to make it 
               Ab7            
No matter what I do how hard I
A               Abm            
I can't seem to convince myself
                 Ab7    
I'm stuck on the outside
        E      
I can't hold on
         Ab7 E       Db   Abm
It's all too much to take in 
  E            
I can't hold on
Db   Ab7         E               Ab7
With thoughts of failure sinking in 
  Abm          
I can't hold on
E    Abm     E       Db   Ab7 Abm E 
It's all too much to take ■   ■   in
        Db     
I can't hold on
Ab7              E              
With thoughts of failure sinking
