[Verse 1]
G Am
Born and raised
Em C
Under the rain and a western wind
G Am
Felt the weight
Em C
Trying to live up to they say I am
G Am
Is it any wonder
Em C
Shame comes calling my first name
G Am
Is there any question
Em C
If I'm the one here left to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
G
It's the same fight
Am
All over again
Em
It's the same bite
C
Breaking on my skin
G
It's the same light
Am
When you let me in
Em
You let me in
C
You let me in
[Chorus]
Em C G D
You are the air I breathe (Oh, Oh)

I feel like a contender
Em C
Bringing my fist to a pistol war
G Am
I surrender
Em C
That I need you now, and you've loved me more

It's like an ocean

Over my head, and I'm under the light
G Am Em C
In slow mo - tion tonight
(Repeat Pre-Chorus)
