Tuning: , E A D G B E
[Intro]
I don't wanna
[Verse 1]
Rat race, plac
e to place, ad
ding weight
Tendencies on
repeat, innit
Benefit with a
shoe with no
lace
Take the seat
with the creas
e on it
I don't mind i
f it's lonely,
I don't mind i
f it's fair
I don't care,
you control me
,
Leading me any
where
[Chorus]
I don't wanna
backslide to w
here I've star
ted from,
There's no cha
nce I will sha
ke this again,
'Cause I feel
the pull, wate
r's over my he
ad,
Strength enoug
h for one more
time
Reach my hand
above the tide
I'll take anyt
hing you have
If you could t
hrow me a line
I should've lo
ved you better
,
Do you think t
hat now's the
time
N.C.
You should let go? It's over my head
[Verse 2]
Bad place on a
hundred dolla
r bass,
Kind of wishin
g that I never
did Saturday
Is that a stai
n? You should
change
Are you doing
good? Did you
solve all of y
our problems?
Thanks for asking, in a way but,
Accidentally u
ncovered a new
one yesterday
,
What happened
to what I brus
hed under the
rug,
I used to be t
he champion of
the world you
can't see,
Now I'm drowning in logistics
[Chorus]
I don't wanna
backslide to w
here I've star
ted from,
There's no cha
nce I will sha
ke this again,
'Cause I feel
the pull, wate
r's over my he
ad,
Strength enoug
h for one more
time
Reach my hand
above the tide
I'll take anyt
hing you have
If you could t
hrow me a line
I should've lo
ved you better
,
Do you think t
hat now's the
time
You should let
go? (I don't
mind if it's l
onely)
It's over my h
ead (I don't m
idn if it's fa
ir)
You should let
go? (I don't
care, you cont
rol me)
It's over my h
ead (Leading m
e anywhere)
[Outro]
I'll take anyt
hing you have
If you could t
hrow me a line
I should've lo
ved you better
,
Do you think t
hat now's the
time
You should let
go? It's over
my head
You should let
go? It's over
my head
I don't wanna
backslide
