This isn’t everything you are    (video)

 

    D - Em - G (2x)

 

                     D                                        Em

1. You can't find the phone, so you can call it off,

                                          G

    but it might be for the best.

                      D                    Em

    You can't walk away, anyway,

                                 G

    ’cause you've nowhere else to go.

                D                                     Em

    Is he worth all this, is it a simple yes ?

                                  G

     ’Cause if you have to think, it's fucked.

                            D                               Em

    Feels like you loved him more, than he loved you,

                      G

    and you wish you'd never met.

                      D                             Em

    Don't keel over now, don't keel over,

                        G

    don't keel over now, don't keel over.

 

                         D                                          Em

2. You've been up all night, and the night before,

                            G

    you've lost count of drinks and time,

                     D                                          Em

    and your friends keep calling, worried sick,

                            G

    and there's strangers everywhere.

                      D                             Em

    Don't keel over now, don't keel over,

                        G

    don't keel over now, don't keel over.

 

G                                         - Em

    And in one little moment          it all implodes,

D                                         C

    this isn't everything you are

G                                                 - Em

    breathe deeply in the silence,           no sudden moves.

D                                         C

    this isn't everything you are.

G                                                     -  Em

    Just take the hand that's offered          and hold on tight,

D                                         C

    this isn't everything you are,

G                                                       - Em

    there's joy not far from here, right          I know there is,

D                                         C

    this isn't everything you are.

 

+  D - Em - G

 

                       D                                  Em

3. When you took the call, how could you know,

                       G

    that he'd slipped away last night,

                    D                             Em

    and you wish you went home days ago,

                          G

    to say goodbye or just hello.

                     D                              Em

    Don't keel over now, don't keel over,

                       G

    don't keel over now, don't keel over.
