[Intro]: Em C G Gmaj7 x2
Em C G I awoke, only to find my lungs empty Gmaj7 Em C G And through the night, so it seems I'm not breathing Gmaj7 Em C G And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be Gmaj7 Em C G And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down Gmaj7 Em C G And I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunts me Gmaj7 Em C G Such as living with the uncertainty Gmaj7 Em C G Gmaj7 That I'll never find the words to say which would completely explain Em C G Gmaj7 Just how I'm breaking down Dadd4 Em C Someone come and, someone come and save my life Dadd4 Em C Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead, but now it's like the night is taking sides Dadd4 Em C With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind Dadd4 Em C Could it be this misery will suffice
[Interlude]: Em C G Gmaj7 x2
Em C G I've become a simple souvenir of someone's kill Gmaj7 Em C G Gmaj7 And like the sea I'm constantly changing from calm to ill Em C G Gmaj7 Em Madness fills my heart and soul as if the great divide could swallow me whole C G Gmaj7 Oh how I'm breaking down Dadd4 Em C Someone come and, someone come and save my life Dadd4 Em C Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead, but now it's like the night is taking sides Dadd4 Em C With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind Dadd4 Em C Could it be this misery will suffice, oh in my life
[Solo - part 1]: Dadd4 Em C x4 [Solo - part 2]: Em C G Gmaj7 x2
Dadd4 Em C Someone come and, someone come and save my life (save my life) Dadd4 Em C Someone come and, someone come and save my life (save my life) Dadd4 Em C Someone come and, someone come and save my life Dadd4 Em C Could it be this misery will suffice
