Lithium

[Chorus]


Am G Dm

Lithium, don't want to lock me up inside.

Am G Dm

Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...

Am G Dm Am

Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.



[Verse 1]


G Dm Am

Oh but God I want to let it go.

Am F

Come to bed, don't make me sleep alone.

F Dm G Am

Couldn't hide the emptiness, you let it show.

Am F

Never wanted it to be so cold.

F Dm G

Just didn't drink enough to say you love me.



[Pre-Chorus]


Am F

I can't hold on to me,

Am Dm

Wonder what's wrong with me.

Lithium, don't want to forget how it feels without...

Am G Dm Am G Dm

Lithium, I want to stay in love with my sorrow.



[Bridge ]


F G Am

Don't want to let it lay me down this time.

F Dm G Am

Drown my will to fly.

F E Am

Here in the darkness I know myself.

F Dm G Am

Can't break free until I let it go.

Am

Let me go.


[Verse 2]


Am F

Darling, I forgive you after all.

F Dm G Am

Anything is better than to be alone.


Am F

And in the end I guess I had to fall.

F Dm G

Always find my place among the ashes.



[PreChorus]


Am F

I can't hold on to me,

Am Dm

Wonder what's wrong with me.

Oh but God I want to let it go.
