[Verse 1]
C G Em B
Whenever days slip away and every moment with me
C G Em B
feels like I’m floating in space because I want to believe
C G Em B
these are my halcyon days, but I’m afraid of my age
C G Em B
and don’t know anyone’s name because I can’t concentrate,
[Chorus]
G D Bm Em D C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
C G C Am
C G C Am
[Verse 2]
C G Em B
Whenever weeks slip away from being caught in the wake
C G Em B
of the American craze - the overtime, underpaid.
C G Em B
These are the Amazon days, we are the binge watching age
C G Em B
and we’ll be stuck in a screen until our phones fall asleep.
[Chorus]
G D Bm Em D C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
C G C Am
C G C Am
[Bridge]
Em D C
We’ll get lost and wander off distracted by fake news.
Em D Am
When our towns fall to the ground it won’t shatter me and you
[Verse 3]
C G Em B
and when we’re looking around at all the shit that went down
C G Em B
‘cause half of us were too scared and half of us were too proud
C G Em B
to see the systems we start are destined to fall apart
C G Em B
when we let power and greed corrupt our collective heart,
[Chorus]
G D Bm Em D C
oh, I am never letting go of you.
C G C Am
C G C Am
[Bridge 2]
Em D C
We’ll get lost and wander off enraptured by fake doom.
Em E/Eb D E/Eb
When our towns fall to the ground, oh, it won’t shatter me and you
[Verse 4]
G Em Am D
whenever we feel ashamed being alive and awake
G Em Am D
in such an era of hate and military police.
G Em Am D
These are the mass murder days. We are the blast damage age
G Em Am D
where we can’t love anything because they keep us afraid,
[Chorus]
G D Bm Em D
oh, I will be there kicking, fighting,
G D Bm Em D G
beating, screaming, “There’s no fucking way
G D E/Eb Em D C
I’m ever letting go of you.”
