These are Do What You Gotta Do chords by The Band CAMINO for Piano and Ukulele.

[Intro]
C

[Verse 1: Spencer Stewart]
C
Picture frames
                          G
Coffee tables, wilted flowers
G
Holidays
                          Am7
Empty words and wasted hours
Am7
Chardonnay
Am7
That you cry into in the shower
F
 Saving face
    G
But silence is your superpower

[Pre-Chorus: Spencer 
Stewart & Jeffery Jordan]
C       F
We both know
F
You want to be, you got to be
         Am7
On your own
Am7
You take with you half of me
                 F
Knowing all I've done
F
To keep it from happening
         G
Is not enough for you

[Chorus: Spencer Stewart]
     C
Like water in the palm of my hand
C
I feel you slipping through
G
No matter how hard I try
G
I can't hold on to you
   Am7
So tell me here and now
Am7
Don't drag my heart around
F
If you're gonna break me in two
                    C
Do what you gotta do

[Verse 2: Spencer Stewart]
C                       
Save me from this limbo, 
                   G
am I talkin' to myself?
                         
Fading like a candle when 
                   Am7
the wax begins to melt
                          
Can't keep you in my life, 
                        F
you belong to just yourself
                 G
Tell me, if it's really over,
 just say that it's over
