2:00 AM (BREATHE) By Anna Nalick

(Theres no guitar on this part but if you want to put guitar with it just use the chords
from the second half of the verse)

2 Am and she calls me cause I'm still awake 
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake 
I don't love him and winter just wasn't my season.
 A
Yea we walk through the doors so accusing their eyes
 D
Like they have any right at all to criticize
                                               A
Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason.

  D
Cause you can't jump the track 
  D
We're like cars on a cable and 
  A                        E
life's like an hourglass glued to the table, 
  D
No one can find the rewind button girl 
  A                                E
So just cradle your head in your hands. 
       D            A              D            A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe


 A
May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss 
 D
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
                                             A
Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year
 A
Here in town you can tell he's been down for while 
 D
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
                                              A
Wanna hold him but maybe I'll just sing about it 


 D
Cause you can't jump the track 
We're like cars on a cable 
      A                        E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table, 
 D                                    
No one can find the rewind button boys 
 A                 
so cradle your head in your hands
       D             A             D           A
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breath just breathe

   D
There's a light at the end of this tunnel 
                        A                        E
you shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out 
 D
And these mistakes you've made 
                                        A
You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around

 
2Am and I'm still awake writing this song
If i get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me threaten' the life it belongs to.
 A                                          D
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
                                         
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out aloud 
                                             A
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.

 D
But you can't jump the track 

We're like cars on a cable 
 A                             E
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table, 
 D                 
No one can find the rewind button now
 A                 E
Sing it if you understand...
       D
yeah breath
       A            
Just breathe, 
        D
ohho breathe, 
       A
Just breathe.
