[Intro]
C Dm Am F C  
  
Am                        F  C 
Waiting for the exhale 
          Am                                     F  C 
I toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well
[Refrain]
        C        Dm                  Am 
I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale 
        F                   C 
Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well 
         C  Dm     Am 
Still no luck, but oh well 
        F                          C 
I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail 
Am 
Stress on my shoulders like a anvil 
F                           C 
Perky got me itching like a anthill 
      Am 
Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill 
    F                  C 
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
[Strophe]
     C     Dm              Am 
Ring-ring, phone call from depression 
            F                         C 
You used my past and my memories as a weapon 
       C           Dm        Am 
On the other line, I talk to addiction, huh 
F                              C 
Speaking of the devil, all the drugs, I miss them 
Am 
This can't be real, is it fiction? 
F                              C 
Somethin' feels broke, need to fix it 
Am 
I cry out for help, do they listen? 
F                        C 
I'ma be alone until it's finished
[Pre-Refrain]
Am                                                  F 
This is the part where I tell you I'm fine, but I'm lying 
             C 
I just don't want you to worry 
Am                                                F 
This is the part where I take all my feelings and hide 'em 
                      C 
'Cause I don't want nobody to hurt me
[Refrain]
        C        Dm                  Am 
I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale 
        F                   C 
Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well 
         C  Dm     Am 
Still no luck, but oh well 
        F                          C 
I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail 
Am 
Stress on my shoulders like a anvil 
F                           C 
Perky got me itching like a anthill 
      Am 
Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill 
    F                  C 
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
[Strophe]
    C     Dm           Am 
Sometimes I don't know how to feel 
      F 
Let's be for real 
      C                              C       Dm 
If it wasn't for the pills, I wouldn't be here 
              Am                          F        C 
But if I keep taking these pills, I won't be here, yeah 
                     Am 
I just told y'all my secret, yeah 
                   F   C 
It's tearing me to pieces 
                 Am 
I really think I need them 
  F                            C 
I stopped taking the drugs and now the drugs take me
[Pre-Refrain]
Am                                                  F 
This is the part where I tell you I'm fine, but I'm lying

I just don't want you to worry 
Am                                                F 
This is the part where I take all my feelings and hide 'em 
                      C 
'Cause I don't want nobody to hurt me
[Refrain]
        C        Dm                  Am 
I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale 
        F                   C 
Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well 
         C  Dm     Am 
Still no luck, but oh well 
        F                          C 
I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail
