[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
You are [G]overbearing,
[D]I'm not in love
But [A]I don't wanna tell y[Bm]ou
We've been [G]contemplating
[D]how to give it up
But [A]I can't convince you
[D]And we've been hop[G]e
lessly [D]holding too tight
When [A]we don't even need [Bm]to
And as the wa[G]ter fills
this sink[D]ing ship
I know [A]we have to leave [Bm]too

[Verse 2]
Oh-oh [Bm]Oh-o
[A]h
[G]May[A]day, may[Bm] day[A][F#m][G]

may[A]day
This is an emer[Bm]gency
[G]Mayday[D], mayday
[A]You've gotta let me [Bm]leav[G]e
I'm laying [D]here, inches [A]away
But you can't [Bbdim]hear me call mayday,[Bm]
yeah, [A]yeah
[G]

[Verse 3]
[D]
I said I'm [G]moving on,
'cause [D]things were getting rough
But [A]here I am in your [Bm]bed
I strung it [G]on too long, [D]afraid to be alone
Now [A]we're in over our [D]heads
It's either [G]sink or swim,
we've [D]tried so many times
For [A]worse or for [Bm]better
It tears my [G]heart in two to
[D]leave it all behind
And [A]say goodbye forever

[Verse 4]
[Bm]Oh-oh

I'm laying [D]here, inches [A]away
But you can't [Bbdim]hear me call may [F#]day,[Bm]
yeah, [A]yeah
[G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Oh, you gotta let me [Bm]leave[A]
[Em]Oh, the weight will make us [F#m]sink
