A                                        G
  2 AM and she calls me cause I'm still awake 
                                     D
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake 
                                       A
I don't love him. Winter just wasn't my season."
A                                                     G
  Yeah, we walk through the doors - so accusing their eyes
                                        D
Like they have any right at all to criticize
                                             A
Hypocrites. You're all here for the very same reason.

[Chorus]
           Bm
Cause you can't jump the track 
            D
We're like cars on a cable 
    A                        E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table 
Bm                    D
No one can find the rewind button, girl 
   A                    E
So cradle your head in your hands. 
   G   D         A            G    D        A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe

[Verse 2]
A                                         G
  In May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss 
                                                D
"Just a day," he said down to the flask in his fist
                                          A
"Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year."
A                                                G
  Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while 
                                           D
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
                                      A
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it 

[Chorus]
          Bm
Cause you can't jump the track 
            D
We're like cars on a cable
    A                        E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table 
Bm                    D
No one can find the rewind button, boys 
   A                    E
So cradle your head in your hands.
   G   D         A            G    D        A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe

[Bridge]
          Bm                        D
There's a light at each end of this tunnel 
                       A                        E
You shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out 
          Bm                                D
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again 
       A                 E
If you only try turnin' around

[Verse 3]
A                                    G
  2 AM and I'm still awake writing a song
                                      D
If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me 
                          A
Threatenin' the life it belongs to.
A                                           G
  And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
                                              D
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out loud
                                             A
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.

[Chorus]
         Bm
But you can't jump the track 
           D
We're like cars on a cable
    A                        E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table, 
Bm                    D
No one can find the rewind button now 
A                  E
Sing it if you understand...
   G   D        A              G   D       A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe
   G   D           A             G   D        A
Whoa  breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe

[Outro]
G  D   A
