[Strophe]
C                    Am 
I think it's time we give it up 
    C                 Am 
And figure out what's stopping us 
F               C 
From breathing easy 
F               C 
And talking straight 
    C 
The way is clear 
       Am 
You're ready now 
    C            Am 
The volunteer is slowing down 
    F      C       F    C 
And taking time to save himself
[Pre-Refrain]
C                   Bb         F 
The little cracks they escalated 
   C              Bb       Am 
Before we knew it was too late 
    F      C 
For making circles 
    F      C   Bb  Am 
And telling lies
[Refrain]
                D             G 
You're moving too fast for me and 
              C      C/B 
I can't keep up with you 
Am           D               G 
Baby if you slow down for me I 
                C    C/B    Am        D 
Can see you're only telling lies lies lies 
F             C    C/B      Am          D 
Breaking us down with your lies lies lies 
F             C     C/B   Am 
When will you learn
[Pre-Refrain]
C                   Bb         F 
The little cracks they escalated 
   C              Bb       Am 
Before we knew it was too late 
    F      C 
For making circles 
    F      C   Bb  Am 
And telling lies
[Refrain]
                D             G 
You're moving too fast for me and 
              C      C/B 
I can't keep up with you 
Am           D               G 
Baby if you slow down for me I 
                C    C/B    Am        D 
Can see you're only telling lies lies lies 
F             C    C/B      Am          D 
Breaking us down with your lies lies lies 
F             C     C/B   Am 
When will you learn
[Outro]
C                    Am 
So plant a thought, and watch it grow 
C                    Am 
Wind it up and let it go
