Chorus
    F                    C
You hold my hand through turbulence
    Am            C
You sugarcoat the oxygen
   F                   C
My lungs are full, I'm sick again
  Am              C
I feel you coming on
    Dm7          C
You never simply talk to me
    F                    C
You tell the truth about everything
   Dm7           C
Of all of your afflictions
     F              C
That is my favorite one
F  C            F               C
 Oh, well, it's turning out I'm better when
F  C          F               C
 Oh, when you stop and stick around
    Dm7  C   F                   C
I'll   go anywhere you want, but then again
Dm7  C         F     C
   I like this house


Verse
    F            C
You used to be a mystery
  Dm7                 C
A bruise you left, an injury
  F                         C
I thought you lived through suffering
    Am              C
But thank God I was wrong
     Dm7                C
Your family feels like family
    F                C
You see what I can't seem to see
  Dm7                 C
I don't know where to put it all
     F            C
I'll put you in a song and
Dm7   C      F                C
   Oh, I was burning out, but then you said
Dm7  C             F               C
   Oh, "You should leave the light on"
        Dm7  C       F              C
And I'll   go if you ask me to, but then again
Dm7      C       F   C
   Don't drop me off
Dm7  C         F            C
   Oh, well it can't be a coincidence
Dm7  C        F                  C
   Oh, that I falter when you're gone
     Dm7    C       F                C
And I   cope, but I promise you it's different
Dm7       C           F   C
   You're strong, I'm not
F       C           F   C
 You're strong, I'm not


Bridge
F         C             F     
 It's the shape of your hands
        C
Made me brave once again
F      C            F
 You became where I land
        C
Now you hold all of it


Chorus
    F                    C          F C
You hold my hand through turbulence
    F             C      F C
You sugarcoat the oxygen
   Dm7                 C
My lungs are full, I'm sick again
  F               C
I feel you coming on
   Dm7           C               F              C
Of all of your afflictions, that is my favorite one
Dm7  C            F               C
   Oh, well, it's turning out I'm better when
Dm7  C          F               C
   Oh, when you stop and stick around
    Dm7  C   F                   C
I'll   go anywhere you want, but then again
Dm7        C         F     C
   Well, I like this house


Refrain
Dm7   C      F                C
   Oh, I was burning out, but then you said
Dm7  C             F               C
   Oh, "You should leave the light on"
    Dm7  C   F                   C
I'll   go anywhere you want, but then again
Dm7      C       F   C
   Don't drop me off
Dm7      C       F   C
   Don't drop me off


Outro
  F       C       F   C
Hm, don't drop me off, huh
F      C F C
 Don't
