[Verse 1]
B                              G#m              F#
Surprise, surprise, I couldn't sleep last night

B                         G#m      F#
Wide awake staring at the moon

B                            G#m         F#
Surprise, surprise, I lost my appetite

B                               G#m   F#
My morning star rose for me too soon

B                                G#m      F#
The time, it flies on by like an F-18

B                              G#m    F#
And leaves us screaming in the sun

B                               G#m         F#
The sky, it tries to watch over everything

B                               G#m      F#
Making no sense of what we've become
[Chorus 1]
E                              B
And when your world is void of everything

E                             B
Watch life go by like passing cars

E                              B
As it twirls, the noise can be deafening

                  F#
Watch out for the stars

                  B
Watch out for the stars
[Verse 2]
B                                   G#m         F#
Surprise, surprise, I just couldn't smile today

B                               G#m   F#
Was up the whole night counting stars

B                                 G#m          F#
Surprise, surprise, I feel like I lost my way

B                             G#m   F#
Buried beneath these mounting scars
[Chorus 2]
E                              B
And when your world is void of everything

E                             B
Watch life go by like passing cars

E                              B
As it twirls, the noise can be deafening

                  F#
Watch out for the stars

                  G#m
Watch out for the stars
[Bridge]
G#m                      B
No, I can't just look it up (look away)

   E         B              F#            G#m
Am I already guilty of just good enough?

G#m                     B
I was supposed to be on watch

                      E
Sat still and I dozed off

          B                    F#
I let the monsters march right in

                             E
And the beat keeps happening
[Chorus 3]
E                              B
And when your world is void of everything

E                             B
Watch life go by like passing cars

E                                  B
And as it twirls, the noise can be deafening

                  F#
Watch out for the stars

                  E
Watch out for the stars

                               B
And when your world is void of everything

E                             B
Watch life go by like passing cars

E                                  B
And as it twirls, the noise can be deafening

                  F#
Watch out for the stars

                  E
Watch out for the stars
