[Verse 1]
Bm I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown Dadd9 And if the words float up to the surface, I'll keep them down F#m7 This is the first time I know Emadd9 I don't want the crown, you can take it now
[Verse 2]
Bm You promised the world and brought me it hanging from a string Dadd9 Stuck it in my mouth, into my throat, told me to sing F#m7 That was the first time I knew Emadd9 you can't kill the king and those who kiss the ring
[Chorus]
Bm Tell me how Dadd9 It's better when the sun goes down F#m We'll never escape this town Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Em I wasn't scared when he caught me, look what it taught me Bm Tell me how Dadd9 It's better if I make no sound F#m I'll never escape these doubts Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Em I wasn't dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down
[Verse 3]
Bm I'm writing a chapter on what to do after they dig you up Dadd9 F#m On what to do after you grew to hate what you used to love Emadd9 That was the first time I knew they were out for blood
And they would have your guts
[Chorus]
Bm Tell me how Dadd9 It's better when the sun goes down F#m We'll never escape this town Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Em I wasn't scared when he caught me, look what it taught me Bm Tell me how Dadd9 It's better if I make no sound F#m I'll never escape these doubts Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Em I wasn't dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down

[Bridge]
Bm Watch as they pull me down Dadd9 Watch as they pull me down F#m7 Pulling me down Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Em Dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down Bm Watch as they pull me down Dadd9 Watch as they pull me down F#m7 Pulling me down Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Em Dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down
