Em
I know what you're doing,
                  A
I see it all too clear
                  C
I only taste the saline
                       Dsus2
when I kiss away your tears
                    Em
You really had me going,
               A
wishing on a star
                            C
But the black holes that surround you
                Dsus2
are heavier by far
                       Em
I believed in your confusion,
                        A
you were so completely torn
                               C
Well it must have been that yesterday
                        Dsus2
was the day that I was born
                      Em
There's not much to examine,
                         A
there's nothing left to hide
                        C
You really can't be serious 
                       Dsus2
if you have to ask me why

          F
I say goodbye...


[Chorus]

                      C
'Cause I am barely breathing
                      G
And I can't find the air
                       Am
I don't know who I'm kidding
                F
Imagining you care
                         C
And I could stand here waiting
                    G
A fool for another day
                          Am
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,

worth the price

The price that I would pay 


[Verse]

                 Em
Everyone keeps asking,
                A
what's it all about?
                   C
I used to be so certain
                    Dsus2
and I can't figure out
                 Em
What is this attraction?
                 A
I only feel the pain
                         C
There's nothing left to reason 
                 Dsus2
and only you to blame
              D*
Will it ever change?


[Chorus]

                      C
'Cause I am barely breathing
                      G
And I can't find the air
                       Am
I don't know who I'm kidding
                F
Imagining you care
                         C
And I could stand here waiting
                    G
A fool for another day
                          Am
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,

worth the price

The price that I would pay


[Verse]

C                         G
But I'm thinking it over anyway...
      D
I've come to find
       Am
I may never know
      G
Your changing mind
        F
Is it friend or foe? 
   D
I rise above
    Am
Or sink below
      G
With every time
     F
You come and go
 F                    Em
Please don't come and go 


[Chorus]

                      C
'Cause I am barely breathing
                      G
And I can't find the air
                       Am
I don't know who I'm kidding
                F
Imagining you care
                         C
And I could stand here waiting
                    G
A fool for another day
                          Am
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,

worth the price

The price that I would pay 


[Outro]

                          Em
Well, I know what you're doing,
                   A
I see it all too clear
