key: Db
C#                    Dbsus4
It was so cold in the top room
      Db                Absus4
But I didn't wanna risk waking you
      C#              Dbsus4
So I let it sit in my feet and my fingers
      Db                        Absus4
With everything I burn the dull ache it lingers
      C#                    Dbsus4
And I don't know if I'll be able to complete
     Db                   Absus4    
What other people do each day without noticing
      C#                    Dbsus4
And I don't know if I'll be able to compete
     Db                           Absus4
With when I feel these days about almost everything

[Hook]
F#
One bad week for a life of breathing
G#
A few nights lay awake for an eternity of sleeping
Bb
I wanna feel it now
C#
Cough me in, breathe me in and spit me out

[Chorus]
F#                             C#
I am someone in your passenger seat
         G#         F#
I'm your punching bag
                                   C#
I will let you kick the shit outta me
         G#           F#
And I'll hold your hand
                                C#
I'll be whatever you tell me to be
         G#       F#
And I'll understand

[Verse 2]
C#                    Dbsus4
Breathing out cold air in my own house
      Db                Absus4
And wondering why I couldn't afford a solution to that by now
C#                    Dbsus4
And I'm sure everything seems romantic
      Db                Absus4
In reality it's uncomfortable to deal with

[Verse 3]
C#                    Dbsus4
Falling asleep every other afternoon
      Db                Absus4
To the sound of being alone
C#                    Dbsus4
And having nothing to do
      Db                Absus4
And I'm sure moving in
C#                    Dbsus4
Straight away made you feel safe
      Db                Absus4
But it probably wasn't great for my mental state

[Hook]
F#
And one bad week for a life of breathing
G#
A few nights lay awake for an eternity of sleeping
Bb
I wanna feel it now
C#
Cough me in, breathe me in and spit me out

[Chorus]
F#                             C#
I am someone in your passenger seat
         G#         F#
I'm your punching bag
                                   C#
I will let you kick the shit outta me
         G#           F#
And I'll hold your hand
                                C#
I'll be whatever you tell me to be
         G#       F#
And I'll understand

[Bridge]
         Db   Gb            Db               Gb
If I can't see a future for you without evil
           Db               Gb                 Db      Gb
A future for me without you will, only make it better
           Db    Gb           Db      Gb
So I start hoping, that I stop smoking
            Db
Because the ducks are in a row and
       Gb                            Db      Gb
This is my best chance to get my shit together

[Verse 4]
            Db  Gb    Db       Gb
When I turned 25 I was terrified
             Db
Still haven't learnt to do the dishes
  Gb                           Db    Gb
My mum was my age when I became alive
            Db    Gb         Db       Gb
So I stopped hoping and I quit smoking
            Db
Because the writing's on the wall
         Gb 
And it's been there for a while
               Db                     Gb
And it sure is nice to remember things yeah

[Chorus]
F#                             C#
I am someone in your passenger seat
         G#         F#
I'm your punching bag
                                   C#
I will let you kick the shit outta me
         G#           F#
And I'll hold your hand
                                C#
I'll be whatever you tell me to be
         G#       F#
And I'll understand
