Lyrics
Close e nough to start a war,
all that I have
is on the floor.
God on ly knows what we’re fight ing (Ab)for,
all that I say,
you al ways say more.
I can’t keep up with your (Fm)turn ing ta bles, un der (Ab)your thumb I can’t (Bb)breathe.
So (Cm7)I won’t (Abmaj7)let you (Eb)close e nough to hurt me, no (Cm7)I won’t (Abmaj7)res cue (Eb)you just to de sert me.
I can’t give you
the (Ab)heart you (Eb)think you (Bb)gave me, it’s time to (Fm)say (Eb)good (Ab)bye
to turn ing ta bles,
to turn ing ta bles.
Un der hard est guise I see,
ooh,
where love is lost, your ghost is found.
I braved a hun dred storms to leave you,
as hard as you try, no, I will nev er be knocked down.
turn ing ta bles.
(Cm7)Next time, I’ll be brav er, (Abmaj7)I’ll be my own sav ior (Eb)when
the thun der calls for me.
(Cm7)Next time, I’ll be brav er, (Abmaj7)I’ll be my own sav ior.

to turn ing ta bles,
to turn ing ta bles.
Turn ing ta bles,

Turn ing, oh.
