Intro:


Verse 1:
     F
If I hold on much
Dm
longer I might
Bb
break my hands I
        F
must respect the
          C
space you have but
    Bb
you tread in my
          F
lands And all things
 C              Bb
aside I know we both
know where we stand
          F
I'm stuck here And
       C
you're there and
       Bb F C/E
that's it
       Bb F Gm
let it go


Chorus 1:
     Bb
This quicksand it
         F    C/E
pulls me under It
         Bb
pulls me underneath
   F
her And I'm learning
C
how to live with my
Bb
unintended consequences
F
  While you're busy
C/E           Bb
jumping fences  Afraid
to stay in one
 Bb          C   Bb(hold)
spot for too long


Verse 2:
Bb
Biting the bait
Pulling me down
F
Telling myself
     Gm
to rebuild and
            Bb
rebound Yet always
hoping to see you
around Cause that's
F          Gm
my idea of safe and
          Bb
sound But I'd rather
            F
gamble lose all and
     Gm
face death than fucking
Bb
rot here exhausted
          F        Gm
from this waste of breath
         Bb
I always waste my breath


Chorus 2:
     Bb
This quicksand it
         F    C/E
pulls me under It
         Bb
pulls me underneath
   F
her And I'm learning
C
how to live with my
Bb
unintended consequences
F
  While you're busy
C/E           Bb
jumping fences  Afraid
to stay in one
 Bb          C   Bb
spot for too long
