F
Wake up now little sleepyhead 

F                          G                 G
From your nightmarish day     the dead trip

F
 You'd be better off not to know

F                              G                   Asus4/F
 Of the wild seeds you let go     From your thorny fingertips

F
 Try to clean bloodstained hands

F
That ran away and left the scene

G              G
   Of a crime    last night

F
Always thought you stood on the other side

F
Never thought the roof would cave in

      G    G
Where you     were hiding

Dm                   F                     C
   There's a wave of fear that creeps right in

Dm                     F                    C
   A vacant stare that can't say where it's been

          E 
Or what's been laced

    F                        F
The trail leads all over the place

           C        E
There's an angel at your side

     Am                      F
Who rescued you in a nick of time

         Esus4          E
Explains how you almost fell

F                     Esus4       E
  And vanished into a fatal spell

Fsus4                            Esus4  E
    She looks into your eyes and sees    There's something still missing  

Dm              F                        C
  She notices a chunk bleeding from your chest

Dm                  F                  C       E 
  Tries to stop the bloodflow with her best compress

        F                F
But the wreckage is in a mess

            C        E
There's an emotional tax, 

    Esus4       E
And stories unfold

F                         Esus4       E
 The world grows dark and bones get cold

Fsus4                              Esus4       E
  You look into your heart and you know    something still missing  

Am               E  Am          E
  something still      missing  

Am        E  Am          E
   still         missing
