Come on, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
If I, if I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole

Verse 2

Come here, oh my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear, I waited and waited

But time is on your side
It's on your side, now
Not pushing you down, and all around
It's no cause for concern

Verse 4
Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
Sick to the stomach
Verse 5
You can say what you mean
But it won't change a thing
I'm sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
And you came along and you cut me loose
Outro
(riff same as bridge 3, except all G6 chords are Gmaj7 chords):
... ... You came along and you cut me loose
... ... You came along and you cut me loose
