[Verse 1]
D                           B
Maybe I’m crazy I've 
D                                             D
Been talking to myself at night
G                                  E         G
And I'm feelin' so alone
D                           B
If I could get the words out right
D                                             D
To tell you how I feel I might
G                                  E         G
But they're comin' out so wrong
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Then the voices they come rushin' in
D
Like a ten ton truck into soft cement
G
Now the words make sense but I can't repeat
D
Because sense don't make what it used to be
A                              G
I'm here my love but I'm floating, baby
 
[Chorus]
D
Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind 
                 G                                   A
You tied a tether here to keep me close
               D
I've been talking to myself on some Icarus spell
               G                                  A
But it got better when you didn't go 
       D
Oh, tell me when you wanna get out of here
        G                        A
And I won't need any more
  D                                          A
Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind
                     G                               A
You know I'd really hate to see me float 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                             B
I tremble when I see your eyes
D                                              D
I saw them in a dream last night
G                                             E           G
And they heard me sing a song
D                                    B
I never cared for fancy art
D                                   D
Or poetry on old guitars
G                                        E            G
But they always sing along
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Then the notes fill up like a big balloon
D
As I'm drifting upwards away from you
G
Now I'm screaming mad with two clenched hands
D
Will beauty come if I don't land?
A                              G
I'm here my love but I'm floating, baby
 
[Chorus]
D
Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind 
                 G                                   A
You tied a tether here to keep me close
               D
I've been talking to myself on some Icarus spell
               G                                  A
But it got better when you didn't go 
       D
Oh, tell me when you wanna get out of here
        G                        A
And I won't need any more
  D                                          A
Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind
                     G                               A
You know I'd really hate to see me float 
 
[Bridge]
