Intro

----- x2

Verse 1

That's just like me when

everything's gone wrong

To latch onto something

less stable less good

I needed an anchor

for my sinking ship

It's just like me to attach

it to my heart instead

Refrain

I think this was a test

To see how long I

could hold my breath

Chorus 1

I understand but I

gotta remind myself

That even at my worst

I can keep my head

(I can keep my head)

Alone I stand

United we fall apart

One union under god

But not for long thankfully

Post chorus: Bm--Em-F#m- x2

Verse 2

That's just like me when

everything else fails

To go for the gold

unattainable goals

Enough's not enough when

you're beat to the floor

As if heartache's not

heartache enough anymore

(Repeat Refrain)

Chorus 2

I understand but I

gotta remind myself

That even at my worst

I can keep my head

(I can keep my head)

Alone I stand

United we fall apart

One union under god

But not for long thankfully

Bridge

When we were young we never cared

And now we're scared of jumping in

Like we've forgotten how to swim

But if we try and if we tread

Then we can teach ourselves again

Cause it's worth the chance we take

When we were young we never cared

And now we're scared of jumping in

Like we've forgotten how to swim

But I think that we should

try and we should tread

Cause if we never take

another dip again

We'll never know the joy

----

that failure brings

Chorus 3

I understand but I

gotta remind myself

That even at my worst

I can keep my head

(I can keep my head)

Alone I stand

United we fall apart

One union under god

But not for long

One union under god

But not for long

thankfully
