[Intro] | Cm | Ebmaj7 | Bbmaj7 | F | x4 [Verse 1]
     Cm                 Ebmaj7
From morning to night I stayed out of sight

Bbmaj7                   F
  Didn't recognize I'd become

   Cm                  Ebmaj7
No more than alive I'd barely survive

Bbmaj7            F
  In a word...overrun
[Chorus 1]
             Gm
Won't hear a sound
(He's curled into the corner)
        F
From my mouth
(But still the screen is flickering)
               Gm
I've spent too long
(With an endless stream of garbage to)
              F
On the inside out
(…curse the place)
           Gm
My skin is cold
(In a sea of random images)
             F
To the human touch
(The self-destructing animal)
              Gm
This bleeding heart's
(Waiting for the waves to break)
            F
Not beating much
[Verse 2]
  Cm                Ebmaj7
I murmured a vow of silence and now

Bbmaj7                            F
  I don't even hear when I think aloud

  Cm                    Ebmaj7
Extinguished by light I turn on the night

Bbmaj7                            F
  Wear its darkness with an empty smile
[Interlude] | Ab | Cm | Gm | Ab | [Bridge]
Fm
  I'm creeping back to life

   G
My nervous system all awry

Ab                       Bb
  I'm wearing the inside out
[Instrumental] | Cm | Ebmaj7 | Bbmaj7 | F | x2 [Verse 3]
Cm                    Ebmaj7
Look at him now, he's paler somehow

Bbmaj7            F
  But he's coming round

     Cm                              Ebmaj7
He's starting to choke, it's been so long since he spoke

Bbmaj7                                     F
  Well he can have the words right from my mouth
[Chorus 2]
               Gm
And with these words

      F
I can see

                  Gm
Clear through the clouds

             F
that covered me

             Gm
Just give it time

              F
then speak my name

           Gm
Now we can hear

           F
ourselves again
[Chorus 3]
            Gm
I'm holding out
(He's standing on the threshold)
        F
For the day
(Caught in fiery anger)
             Gm
When all the clouds
(And hurled into the furnace he'll)
            F
Have blown away
(Curse the place)
             Gm
I'm with you now
(He's torn in all directions)
               F
Can speak your name
(And still the screen is flickering)
           Gm
Now we can hear
(Waiting for the flames to break)
           F
Ourselves again
[Outro] | Gm | F | x8 | Bb | x4
