C
Every night my dream's the same

C 
Same old city with a different name

Fadd9
Men are coming to take me away

  C                                     C
I don't know why but I know I can't stay

[Verse 2]

C
There's a weight that's pressing down

C
Late at night you can hear the sound

Fadd9
Even the noise you make when you sleep

C
Can't swim across a river so deep

[Chorus]

Gsus4                       C/B
They know my name, 'cause I told it to them

         Am7                       Fadd9
But they don't know where and they don't know when

C             C               C
 It's coming, when it's coming

[Verse 3]

C
There's a fear I keep so deep

C
Knew its name just before I could speak, yeah

Fadd9      C
Oh Oh Oh Oh

[Chorus]

Gsus4                       C/B
They know my name, 'cause I told it to them

         Am7                       Fadd9          C
But they don't know where and they don't know when

     Fadd9      C             Fadd9
It's coming, or when but it's coming  

            C
Keep the car running

[Verse 4]

C
If some night I don't come home

C
Please don't think I've left you alone

    Fadd9
The same place animals go when they die

    C
You can't climb across a mountain so high

    Fadd9
The same city where I go when I sleep

C
Can't swim across a river so deep

[Chorus]

Gsus4                       C/B
They know my name, 'cause I told it to them

         Am7                       Fadd9           C
But they don't know where and they don't know when

     Fadd9      C          Fadd9
It's coming, oh when is it coming  

             C       Fadd9
Keep the car running

             C       Fadd9
Keep the car running

             C        C
Keep the car running
