[Intro] C  Dm  Am  F

C                     Am
These days, I've been barely holding on
Em           F                     C
Climbing the walls every dusk till dawn
            Am                   Em
Fearing the future, mourning the past
                 F                      Am
The hours moving slowly, then vanishing fast

Am             F                  Am
But I'm trying in my way to concede
         F
And to tell you just what I need

C                  Dm               F
Help me carry this weight that's dragging me down
C                  Dm               F
Pull me out of the drink before I start to drown
C                  Dm                  F                  Am
Let the wreckage all sink to where the fishes are frightening
        F                    Am
I wanna hear myself think again
        F                    F
I wanna hear myself think again

C                     Am               Em
For so long I've been turning into the skid
              F                     C
And waltzing away from the damage I did
                 Am                       Em
I'd brush off my shoulders and tuck in my shirt
                  F                               Am
And flee from the scene before I knew who'd been hurt

              F                  Am
But I've been trying my best to concede
E7                           Am
To cease to take, just receive
               F                                F
'Cause there's more than your love that I need, that I need

C                  Dm               F
Help me carry this weight, that's dragging me down
C                  Dm               F
Pull me out of the drink before I start to drown
C                  Dm               F             Am
Let the wreckage all sink to where the fishes are frightening
        F                     C
I wanna hear myself think again

C                  Dm               F
Help me carry this weight that's dragging me down
C                  Dm               F
Pull me out of the drink before I start to drown
C                  Dm               F             Am
Let the wreckage all sink to where the fishes are frightening
        F                     Am
I wanna hear myself think again
        F                     F
I wanna hear myself think again
          C
Think again
