Em        C
Somehow I always knew
                  Em
I'd bite the curb out, spills the proof
                         C
The letter in your pocket, now I can't escape the truth
  Am
Surprises so violent, stop with the silence
C

Who is she to you?


Verse 1: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn:
Em
Tell me why, tell me why my whole world's starting to shake
    C
'Cause ain't nobody ever tell you what it feels like
       Am
When you're 'bout to break
   Em    D
I get nervous, tell me what's her name
C                Am
I see a lot of missed calls and now I'm going off

Don't tell me it's okay


Pre-Chorus 1: Michael Bohn; Tyler Carter:
Em             D
A storm is swallowing this interstate
C                    Am
When it rains, it pours and the pain is coming in waves
Em       D
Stay surfaced, love can't hold you down
C
So I will drive


Chorus: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn:
C    D   Em
Slow me down, I'm burning out of control

Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul
C      D   Am
So far from heaven now


Verse 2: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn:
Em
I can't stand that streetlight, I'm rolling out of bed
Em           D
Again, I belong to the night, I'?m a mess
     Em   D         C
Pull me over, I can't forget her name
    Am
Or my urge to put this barrel to your face


Pre-Chorus 2: Michael Bohn:
Em             D
This storm is swallowing my sanity
C             Am
And all our memories are tainted with her cheap perfume
Em           D
Eighteen years thrown away in a day
     C
Somebody stop me now before I get to you


Chorus: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn:
C    D   Em
Slow me down, I'm burning out of control
C      D   Am
So far from heaven now (Pull me back)
C    D   Em
Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul
C      D   Am
So far from heaven now

My son, I gotta thank you for calling
  B7
Not sure who I would be if you stopped looking out for me
Em
(You stopped looking out for me)
Em        C
Somehow I always knew

Let me know when I need to
Em       D
Slow you down, you're burning out of control
C
So far from heaven now


Chorus: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn:

Slow me down, I'm burning out of control

Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul
C      D   Am
So far from heaven now

And you've got to slow me down, I'm burning out of control
Em         Am
So far from heaven now (Pull me back)
C      B7
Slow me down, it's like you've stolen my soul
Em
So far from heaven now
