Cmaj7 Bm7 Em7
Cmaj7 D Bm7
Em7
[Verse]
Cmaj7 My world astir and sickly Bm7 Em7 Spits out our voices singing Cmaj7 D Tra la la on high now Bm7 Em7 To kingdom come so slightly Cmaj7 Herein the void in your place Bm7 Em7 I twitch and tweak in allusion Cmaj7 D To sit and stare so blankly Bm7 Em7 Until all hope is used up
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Bm7 D Why do I always need to need you when you're fleeting Cmaj7 Bm7 D Where do you go when I'm around Cmaj7 Bm7 D What have I done What have I lost that's so defeating Cmaj7 Bm7 D And have the nerve to wear the crown
[Refrain]
Oh
Cmaj7 Na na na na na na hey hey Bm7 Em7 Na na na na na na hey hey Cmaj7 D Na na na na na na hey hey Bm7 Em7 Na na na na na na hey hey
[Verse]
Em7 Cmaj7 In Some dark room Cmaj7 Bm7 A smoky figure fills me full Bm7 Em7 Cmaj7 Makes my head swell in ruin D Bm7 My family kneels at their pew Bm7 Em7 Cmaj7 They nod We believe in what you're doing Cmaj7 Bm7 I feel it rise above me Em7 The western landscapes towering Cmaj7 D And from my shell of a body Bm7 Em7 The flowers blossom for picking
[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Bm7 D Why do I always need to need you when you're fleeting Cmaj7 Bm7 D Where do you go when I'm around Cmaj7 Bm7 D What have I done What have I lost that's so defeating Cmaj7 Bm7 D And have the nerve to wear the crown
[Refrain]
Oh
Cmaj7 Na na na na na na hey hey Bm7 Em7 Na na na na na na hey hey Cmaj7 D Na na na na na na hey hey Bm7 Em7 Na na na na na na hey hey Cmaj7 Na na na na na na hey hey Bm7 Em7 Na na na na na na hey hey Cmaj7 D Na na na na na na hey hey Bm7 Em7 Na na na na na na hey hey
[Bridge]
NC
I've waited and waited for someone to take it
NC
Don't fight it don't bother an inch for another
NC
Don't listen don't hear them they're in this together
NC
I 've learned well now hear me there's much to be fearing
NC
I'm used to your absence your faceless distraction
Cmaj7 I've painted your patterns but found them attractive Bm7 Em7 Now I have been leaning towards a life far more candid Bm7 Cmaj7 D Though led through the dark with your eyes as my candles Bm7 Em7 Where your life and my life directions can wrangle Cmaj7 And all of a sudden you've left me to handle Bm7 Em7 The reasons that never forbid me to stand tall Em7 Cmaj7 D And somehow or somewhere I found out the secret Bm7 Em7 To sting alive without actually breathing
