Verse 1:

                              
 I don't want be the one who hurts you
                               
 I don't want to be the one who fails
                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight
                           -  -  - 
 So you can trust me again


Verse 2:

                                   
 Struggled all my life with empty moments
                               
 The shadow of a hole I'd never fill
                            
 Any happiness you had was empty
                             
But was it good enough, I wanna know


Chorus 1:

                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight
                       
 So you can trust me again
                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight
                       
 So you can trust me again


Verse 3: 

                                   
 I don't want to think of life without you
                              
 I don't want to take a step alone
                                 
 It scares me to think I almost lost you
                                       
Just let me know you're fine, I'm on the line


Chorus 2:

                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight
                       
 So you can trust me again
                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight...


Bridge:

                              
 I'm thinking of our whole life baby, won't you help me find a way
                                                               
 I'm thinking of our whole life baby, won't you help me find my way


Solo:   -  -  -  (x2)


Verse 4: (played lightly) 

                                 
 I don't want to be the one who hurts you
                                      
 I just want to know that you're all right


Chorus 3: (played heavy, with power)

                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight
                       
 So you can trust me again
                          
 I'm keeping my head on straight
                        
So you can trust me again
                     
You can trust me again
                                  
                    Trust me again
