Can't Catch Up ukulele

Can't Catch Up

• G

G                   D 
I can't catch up to you 
                        Am 
You've already gone too far 

And you don't remember 
     C               D 
Who you are or who I am. 
  G                   D 
I can't catch up with you 
                        Am 
You're way up ahead of me 
                           C 
And you're getting harder see 
   D                  G 
Everyday as you run away. 

        G                     D 
You're cutting lines out on a bible 
                            Am 
Too busy dying to stop and live. 
                         C 
You done gave up on survival 
                           D 
You gave all that you can give. 
            G 
And I sure wish you would come back home 
  D 
Nothing else for you to prove. 
            Am 
I know you try real hard to make your mark 
           C                       D          G 
But that world don't love you the way I do. 

Chorus 

>>>> The rest of the song is just the same chords over again. <<<< 

There just ain't no coming down 
When there ain't no one around 
And your head still makes that sound 
And I watch it drive you crazy. 
Your mama's saying prayers 
Pleading with the man upstairs 

You feel like no one cares 
And I watch it drive you crazy. 
You run run run run hiding from the sun 
And I know you wanna turn around 
But there's nothing I can do. 

Chorus 

These demons behind their faces 
You know the lies they tell are true 
You paint yourself into a corner 
And you chose the color blue. 
And you look for inspiration 
In the dark where the sickness lives 
And you're stumbling over your own two feet 
And you're headed for the edge of a cliff. 

Chorus 

I watch you stumble watch you fall 
And I just can't seem to help at all. 
And I feel... I feel like I'm wasting my time with you. 
And I know the way you feel been there myself 
And I just don't wanna see your plan 
And I don't wanna see you go through hell. 
I know it hurts, I know it stabs 
And I know it makes you feel real bad. 
Feel those things that are going on 
Inside your head and make your eyes 
Bloody red and I sympathize 
Cuz I know the way you are 
And I know you won't get far.
