Old habits
die hard
G - D - Am - C (2x)
G
1. I thought I shook myself free,
D
you see, I bounce back quicker
than most,
Em G
but I'm half delirious, it's
too mysterious,
C
you walk through my walls like
a ghost.
G
And I take everyday at a time,
B7
I'm proud as a lion in his
lair,
C Em
now there's no denying it,
and no decrying it,
C
you’re all tangled up in my
head.
G D
- Am C D
Old habits die hard, old soldiers just fade away,
G D Am C
old habits die hard, harder
than November rain.
G D - Am
C D
Old habits die hard, old soldiers just fade away,
G D
Am C
old habits die hard, hard
enough to feel the pain.
G
2. We haven't spoken in months,
D
you see, I've been counting
the days,
Em G
I dream of such humanities,
such insanities,
C
I'm lost like a kid and I'm
late.
G
But I've never taken your
calls,
B7
you see, I put the block on my
phone,
C Em
I act like an addict, I just got to have it,
C
I never can leave it alone.
G D - Am C D
Old habits die hard, old soldiers just fade away,
G D Am C
old habits die hard, harder
than November rain.
G D - Am C D
Old habits die hard, old soldiers just fade away,
G D Am C
old habits die hard, hard
enough to feel the pain.
G - D
- Am - C (2x)
G - D Am - C
And I can't give you up, can't leave you alone,
G D Am C
and it’s so hard, so hard, and
it’s hard enough to feel all the pain.
+ CHORUS + G - D - Am - C
