Chords

Fairly simple to play...my first tab so be kind ;) Sounds pretty close to the song! CHORUS (Play one strum per chord for the first one)
G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave

Em       D              C
I'm just begging you to let me get some sleep

G            D              C
I've lied awake for far too long

Em       D                 C
I get so sick and tired of witnessing the dawn
VERSE 1
G                         C
As Summer hangs on the horizon

G                          C
Desire jumps the fence and hightails to the sea

G                        C
A subtle tick turns into nightmares

G                              C
Without the sentence structure nothing functions

             Em           D             C    
No one has a clue if it's me or if it's you

Em       D            C
Was it me or was it you?
CHORUS
G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave

Em       D              C
I'm just begging you to let me get some sleep

G            D              C
I've lied awake for far too long

Em       D                 C
I get so sick and tired of witnessing the dawn
VERSE 2
G                          C
As Winter strangles at the shoreline

G                           C
Division locks the door and confiscates the key

G                           C
All freezer burn and Arctic research

G                               C                   
The time has passed for pouring glances, there's no romance

           Em          D                   C
There's no sign of the things that used to be

Em            D                   C
And all those things you promised me
CHORUS
G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave

Em       D              C
I'm just begging you to let me get some sleep

G            D              C
I've lied awake for far too long

Em       D                 C
I get so sick and tired of witnessing the dawn
BRIDGE
Em           D                C
From nervous hands to nervous nightmares

Em      D
I often wake and find

G                   C
I'm not alone, just lonely all of the time

G                   C
I'm not alone, just lonely all of the time

G                   C
I'm not alone, just lonely all of the time

G                   C
I'm not alone, just lonely all of the time
CHORUS
G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave

Em       D              C
I'm just begging you to let me get some sleep

G            D              C
I've lied awake for far too long

Em       D                 C
I get so sick and tired of witnessing the dawn

G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave [I'm not asking you to leave]

G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave [I'm not asking you to leave]

G       D             C
I'm not asking you to leave [I'm not asking you to leave]

Em       D              Em              C (Let ring)
I'm just begging you to let me get some sleep
