I The Mighty - Playing Catch With 22 Chords

[Verse 1]
                   G#m                                                 D#m
I've been thinking back to when we used to share a drink on midnight walks.
                E                                                  F#
When you'd pretend your winter breath was cigarette smoke in your lungs.
               G#m                                                      D#m
I'd fight the urge to give you all the worst advice about the ones you liked.

(You called it chemistry, I called it earning bragging rights)
         E                                                  F#
Knowing damn well if I told you how I felt, I'd crack the ice.
F#
Roll the dice.


[Chorus]
                B              C#m              G#m
You're just a second away from being in love or alone. (What you don't know)
                B                  G#m                  E
Is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. (It's a moment you wasted)


[Instrumental]
G#m D#m E F#


[Verse 2]
                   G#m                                                          D#m
I've been thinking back to that night on your front step when I held you as you wept
                                                    E
We sat awhile in silence but I was screaming in my head 
                            F#
How to tell you, if I even could when that moment came.
   G#m                                           D#m
So I always try to live vicariously through my friends

(You call it chemistry, I call it perfect timing instead)
         E                                              F#
Watching all them fall in love, and wondering if I will again


[Chorus]
                B              C#m              G#m
You're just a second away from being in love or alone. (What you don't know)
                B                  G#m                  E
Is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. (It's a moment you wasted)
                B              C#m              G#m
You're just a second away from being in love or alone. (What you don't know)
                B                  G#m                  E
Is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. (It's a moment you wasted)


[Instrumental]
G#m D#m E F# G#m D#m E F#


[Chorus]
                B              C#m              G#m
You're just a second away from being in love or alone. (What you don't know)
                B                  G#m                  E
Is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take. (It's a moment you wasted)
                B              C#m              G#m
You're just a second away from being in love or alone.
                B                  G#m                  E
Is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take.(It's a moment you wasted)


[Outro]
                B              C#m              G#m
You're just a second away from being in love or alone.
                B                  G#m                  E
Is that each second you wait is a breath you don't take.
