E
I'm trying to get my head straight

                                 G#m
I'm playing in game that I can't win
I started in the wrong place
E
A slap to the cold face of love

                                   G#m
I wanna stop this god damn beating heart

             E
It's killing me

                G#m E G#m
This is killing me
[Verse 2]
E
I'm trying to get my head straight

                                G#m
I didn't see the warning signs ahead

                                  E
I feeling like a dead weight long gone
If I could make it all right I would
                                        G#m
I never thought I'd say these things to you

                 E
And it's killing me

                G#m
This is killing me
[Verse 3]
E
I can't stop this train I can't get off

                                  G#m
But I can't go back I've come too far to stop

E
There's too many signs to read them all

                                 G#m
There's too many roads I need to stumble down
[Interlude] B G#m C#m G#m [Verse 4]
E
I've gotta get my head straight

                                      G#m
I never thought a day like this would come

                              E
I'll never be the same way as once
I wanna know if this is for real
                                          G#m
I've gotta know what fate has planned for me

       E
I give in

       G#m E
I give in

                 G#m  B
I give in I give in
[Interlude] E G#m C#m E G#m C#m E G#m C#m E G#m C#m [Coda]
                  E G#m C#m
Believe me when I say

                         E G#m  C#m
There's something I wish I could say

                E  G#m     C#m
You were always so good to me

               E  G#m     C#m
Even when it's so hard to be

                    E   G#m    C#m
I sailed myself too far out to sea

                       E    G#m      C#m
On favoured whims that wont sing for me

                      E   G#m    C#m
There'll be no rescue no finding me

               E   G#m C#m
As I become an old memory

         E G#m C#m
You once knew

         E G#m C#m
You once knew
[Interlude] E G#m C#m E G#m C#m E G#m C#m E G#m C#m [Coda]
                 E      G#m    C#m
It's silent as I sink into the sea

                  E    G#m     C#m
Weightless as the tide carries me

                E     G#m  C#m
To darker water where I believe

                      E  G#m      C#m
Something's down here waiting for me

                    E G#m       C#m
The numbing cold is taking from me

               E  G#m   C#m
Everything I'm so far beneath

                  E        G#m     C#m
My eyes they open one last time to see

                E     G#m     C#m
You are staring right back at me
E G#m C#m E G#m C#m E G#m C#m E G#m C#m
