A                    F#m
I wake up every night (to the sound)

                         Bm
To the sound of breaking glass

Got troops in the bed and tanks in the hall

I kidnapped and held for ransom (the one in me)

The one in me that you loved

We wait for the fall and put emotional bullet holes in the wall

                                  F#m
And we both, keep sending signals all is well wish you were here
