[INTRO]

E C#m B A   x2

[VERSE 1]
      E
Made plans with me and all your friends
      C#m                           B    A
I'm late again, I hate to keep you waiting
E                               
Tried to be a gentleman, 
     C#m                      B      A
Got drunk again before I even made it

E                                   C#m
Tried to call a car for you, you're tired of me
                     B     A
I know you wouldn't take it
E                                         C#m
You walked a mile in Louis Vuittons and fucked 'em up
                             B     A
You know that they're my favorite

[PRE-CHORUS]
      C#m
But we dress up and play pretend
    B
Then we act like we're good again
C#m
I do things I can't defend
    B
And even when you hold it in

[CHORUS]
E         C#m                         B A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
E            C#m                      B A
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
E          C#m    B         A
Keep on smilin' until it's over
E          C#m                     B  A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
 
[VERSE 2]
E
Arguments that never end
         C#m                          B     A
You're talkin' shit to spice up conversation
E
I'm so sick of back and forth
        C#m                                   B    A
These fights with you are startin' to feel contagious

E
Said that I'm no good for you
C#m                               B   A
Right before we walk into your parents
        E
Then you put on that smile again
      C#m                          B     A
And grab my hand even though you hate it

[PRE-CHORUS]
      C#m
But we dress up and play pretend
    B
Then we act like we're good again
C#m
I do things I can't defend
    B
And even when you hold it in

[CHORUS]
E         C#m                         B A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
E            C#m                      B A
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
E          C#m    B         A
Keep on smilin' until it's over
E          C#m                     B  A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
 
[POST-CHORUS]
E               C#m
Oh, but, but it, it won't, but I said
     B                    A
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
E               C#m
Oh, but, but it, it won't, but I said
     B                    A
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't

[BRIDGE]
E          C#m                      B  A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
E            C#m                      B A
Explosions hidden when we're in the open
     E        C#m     B           A
And keep on smilin' until it's over
E          C#m                      B    A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
 
[CHORUS]
E         C#m                        B  A
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly

(Oh, but, but it, it won't, but I said

You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't)
E            C#m                     B   A
Explosions hidden when we're in the open

(Oh, but, but it, it won't, but I said

You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't)
E           C#m     B       A
Keep on smilin' until it's over

(Oh, but, but it, it won't, but I said

You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't)
E         C#m                      B    A
Holdin' even though it kills you slowly

(Oh, but, but it, it won't, but I said

You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't)
