E I had a hole in the middle G#m Where the lightning went through C#m I told my friends not to worry B My wife would know how to fix it E Hole in the middle G#m I'm seeing less of you C#m Now i'm not going anywhere B And I don't know what I'll do Chorus: G#m B It's easy to lose your grip E G# It's easy I never tell my decisions to the ones I adore I just show up like a bible breather outside the door But when I look out the window I see Girls on TV Living and dying in L.A. and it means nothing to me Chorus: It's easy to lose your grip It's easy It's easy to lose your grip It's easy So I walk through the streets I love And I'm led to the house I built So I walk through the streets I love And I lay in your bed again G#m B Wake up your saints Jenny, I need them C#m Jenny, I need them G# Today Wake up your saints Jenny, I need them Jenny, I need them Today I didn't have to explain to her that I wasn't deaf She sat me down and lit some colored candles over my head She said you're right, it's a living, but you're wrong for the life You know you never should've listened to my father's advice Chorus: It's easy to lose your grip It's easy It's easy to lose your grip It's easy So I walk through the streets I love And I'm led to the house I built So I walk through the streets I love And I lay in your bed again Wake up your saints Jenny, I need them Jenny, I need them Today Wake up your saints Jenny, I need them Jenny, I need them Today You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC#m  E  G#  G#m  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
