[Intro]
G C (x4)
[Verse 1]
G C G C Somewhere dark before the sun comes up C C/B Am7 G Where the blinds are closed and the doors are shut Em G I reduce you to the rubble in the bottom of my cup D G 'Til I cannot tell the poison from the pain
[Verse 2]
G C G C Somewhere, dawn, the stores are closed out by the beach C C/B Am7 Riff 1 I could spray paint your name, no one would see Em G I reduce you to the poison in the bottom of my cup D Riff 1 'Til it washes all my worries out to sea
[Chorus]
Em D G And my demons, that got so bored of dreamin' Em D G My demons, alcohol and freedom Em A King without a Queen D G A King without a kingdom
[Verse 3]
G C G C I was so bad on my own C C/B Am7 G Drawing maps inside my soul to places where nobody goes Em G Woke up confused, just staring at my telephone D Riff 1 Waiting like I'd ever hear your voice again
[Verse 4]
G C G C I feel that empty low C C/B Am7 G Sometimes it is so jagged, I don't know what love is for Em G Alone like I don't know how to survive and insane D G 'Til I cannot tell the poison from the pain
[Verse 5]
G C G C I used to think that you were me C C/B Am7 G Pretending every sentence from your mouth was melody Em G A tune so turbulent that it cracked open every key D Riff 2 'Til everything was broken that I played
[Verse 6]
G C G C Your father stood and cried C C/B Am7 G On the day your brother married someone that he could rely on Em G No one could heal his heart, whoever made you cry D Riff 1 So I became the poison and the pain
[Chorus]
Em D G And my demons, they got so bored of dreamin' Em D G Demons, alcohol and freedom Em A King without a Queen D G A King without a kingdom Em A King without a Queen D G A King without a kingdom
[Outro]
G
