Ill start to Navigate the grief Of my body take the sheets off mirrors in my house I know well 6 o’clock sun reflecting the water stains on my window panes I fell Am Maybe its vanity Em Or all too plain to see C I dont recognize Em C Myself Compass points north To a body on the floor that looks like mine Or what I thought I looked like hard to recognize with these cynics eyes Am Maybe its vanity Em Or all too plain to see C I dont recognize Em C myself Am Em Tilt my face back in the shower C Let the water rush down Am Em What distortion will I be met with 
C When I come back from the sound Em When I come back from the sound Am Maybe its vanity Em Or all too plain to see C I dont recognize Low E myself

I miss being in love A C I miss fighting our way A I miss everything about that night B And the look on your face Im not ready to talk I can’t pretend im alright I dont really care what you’ve gotta say Just need some silence in my mind A E Lately I’ve been watching back the highlights of it all A B Subconscious watching a movie but detached enough to be surprised by the downfall A E Still heartbroken for the daydreams that could’ve been A B Its like im moving underwater and love drunk on loneliness I cut the Polaroid up Tried to tear it with my hands But I wasn’t strong enough then But now Im finding my strength to stand alone AE They time heals all AC ifs times on my side A I’m growing greener B And you’re smaller in my mind A E Lately I’ve been watching back the highlights of it all A B Subconscious watching a movie but detached enough to be surprised by the downfall A E Still heartbroken for the daydreams that could’ve been A B Its like im moving underwater and love drunk on loneliness A E I miss being in love

I never saw you coming G Like sun on a winters day Am C waking up in your arms with a smile on my face you say we gotta stop this While youre staring in my eyes Cause we know were both falling And theres no other side CGAm C I say that, I miss u when I saw you last night wonder, if we overthink each other at the same time I Don’t mind waking up next to you a breathe of fresh air, didn’t expect to I didnt expect you G Am C you’ve become a habit with your Puzzling grey eyes I wish I could know what youre feeling The moons swollen full and she hasn’t crossed my mind Im so alive and breathing GAmC I say that I miss u when I saw you last night wonder, overthink each other at the same time Ill say It Don’t mind waking up next to you a breathe of fresh air, didn’t expect to G Am C Didnt expect to G Didnt expect you Its been too long A smile on your lips that im mirroring its been too long I know these familiar feelings Lets have fun while this lasts GAmC I say that I miss u when I saw you last night wonder, overthink each other at the same time Ill say It Don’t mind waking up next to you a breathe of fresh air, didn’t expect to G Am C Didnt expect to
