[Verse 1]
A E
It's pretty windy in the city tonight
F#m D
I got nobody standing beside me
A E F#m D
Sun going down, so am I
A E
Your memory floating in the back of my mind
F#m D
My heart is drowning in this bottle of wine
A E F#m D
Lights going down, so am I
[Chorus]
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
You're treading water and I'm going down slowly
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
Now you're gone, I'm sinking like a stone
[Verse 2]
A E
The sun is setting and the city's aglow
F#m D
Oceans of people but I'm feeling alone
A E F#m D
Lights going down, so am I
A E
Broken hearted on a dead end street
F#m D
I look for you in every face I see
A E F#m D
Sun going down, so am I
[Chorus]
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
You're treading water and I'm going down slowly
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
Now you're gone, yeah
[Bridge]
F#m E
Stop bringing me down, stop bringing me down
D
You raised me up and let me hit the ground
F#m E D
I'm done running around, I'm done running around
A E
It's pretty windy in the city tonight
F#m D
I got nobody standing beside me
A E F#m
Sun going down, so am I
[Chorus]
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
You're treading water and I'm going down slowly
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
Now you're gone
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
You're treading water and I'm going down slowly
A E
I want my heart back, get outta my head
F#m D
Now you're gone, I'm sinking like a stone
