Back  me down from  backing up
 Hold your breath  now it's stacking up
 Etched with marks,  but I can deal
 And you're the problem  and you can't feel
 Try this on,  straitjacket feeling
 so maybe I won't be alone
 Take back now,  my life you're stealing
 Yesterday was over
Today  I'm fine without you
Runaway  this time without you
And  all I ever thought you'd be
 That face  is tearing holes in me again
 Trust you is just one defense
 off a list of others, you don't make sense
 Beg me time and time again
 to take you back now, but you can't win
 Take back now, my life you're stealing
 Yesterday was over
 Today I'm fine without you
 Runaway this time without you
 And all I ever thought you'd be
 That face is tearing holes in me again
 but today I'm fine without you
 Runaway this time without you
 And all the things you put me through
 I'm holding on by letting go of you
And  when the memory  slips away
 There will be a better  view from here
 And only lonesome  you remains
 and just the thought  of you I fear
 it falls away
 Yesterday was over
 Today I'm fine without you
 Runaway this time without you
 And all I ever thought you'd be
 That face is tearing holes in me again
 but today I'm fine without you
 Runaway this time without you
 And all the things you put me through
 I'm holding on by letting go of you

[F#m]Back me down [A]from backing [E]up
Hold your br[B]eath now it's stacking [F#m]up
Etched with ma[A]rks, but I can d[E]eal
And you're the pro[B]blem and you can't f[C#m]eel
Try this [A]on, straitjacket feel[B]ing
so maybe I won't be a[Abm]lone
Take back n[A]ow, my life you're ste[B]aling

Yesterday was over
[E]Today I'm fine without you
[C#m]Runaway this time without you
[A]And all I ever thought you'd be
That fa[B]ce is tearing holes in me again  [A]     [Abm]          [F#m]

Trust you is just one defense
off a list of others, you don't make sense
Beg me time and time again
to take you back now, but you can't win
Take back now, my life you're stealing

Yesterday was over
Today I'm fine without you
Runaway this time without you
And all I ever thought you'd be
That face is tearing holes in me again
but today I'm fine without you
Runaway this time without you
And all the things you put me through
I'm holding on by letting go of you

[A]And when the me[F#m]mory slips a[Abm]way
There will be a be[E]tter view from he[A]re
And only lon[F#m]esome you re[Abm]mains
and just the tho[E]ught of you I f[A]ear
it falls a[F#m]way

Yesterday was over
Today I'm fine without you
Runaway this time without you
And all I ever thought you'd be
That face is tearing holes in me again
but today I'm fine without you
Runaway this time without you
And all the things you put me through
I'm holding on by letting go of you
