Capo 2nd
[Verse 1]
C/G D Em
My hands are tied
G C/G
And someone gotta come set me free
C/G D Em
I been lonely inside
G C/G
Because no one ever gets underneath
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Ooh, whenever you pull me close
Em D
My walls are too high
Am
So I always end up alone
Em D
As hard as I try
[Chorus]
C/G D Em
That's why they call it a ribcage
G C/G
To lock all of my feelings up
C/G D Em
To make sure my heart never escapes
D
I'll never be the same if it does
C/G D Em
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh, oh
G C/G
I'll never be the same if it does
[Verse 2]
C/G D Em
My lips on your skin
G C/G
I know you're tryna hide all the scars
C/G D Em
From when you trusted him
G C/G
But he left you feeling broke in the dark
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Yeaah, whenever I pull you close
Em D
Your walls are too high
Am
So I always end up alone
Em D
As hard as I try
[Chorus]
C/G D Em
Well, that's why they call it a ribcage
G C/G
To lock all of my feelings up
C/G D Em
To make sure my heart never escapes
D
I'll never be the same if it does
C/G D Em
That's why they call it a ribcage
G C/G
To keep me away from your touch
C/G D Em
To make sure my heart never escapes
D
I'll never be the same if it does
C/G D Em G C/G
Woh-oh-ooh, oh-oh, oh (yeah, yeh-eh)
[Bridge]
Am
I never let anybody get too close to me
Em D
You never let anybody see inside
Am
'Cause if we let anybody get a hold
Em D
Then our love runs wild
[Chorus]
C/G D Em
That's why they call it a ribcage
G C/G
To lock all of our feelings up
C/G D Em
To make sure the heart never escapes
D
I'll never be the same if it does
C/G D Em
That's why they call it a ribcage
G C/G
To lock all of our feelings up
C/G D Em
To make sure the heart never escapes
D
I'll never be the same if it does
C/G D Em G C/G
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh, oh, yeah
