Sleep Token – Damocles (Guitar)

      E                           A
Well, I've been waking up under blades, blue blossom days

         E                     A
If only Damocles would hit me back

   E                       A
No alabaster carvings or faces on a farthing

         E                            A
Would prevent my head from fading to black

                   B                A
And it feels like falling into the sea

             B                 A
From outer space in seconds to me

              G#m                A
And I play discordant days on repeat

            B         A
Until they look like harmony

          A
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called

 B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?

C#m
Come up for air and choke on it all

                                         E
No one else knows that I've got a problem

A
What if I can't get up and stand tall?

  E
What if the diamond days are all gone

    B
And who will I be when thе empire falls?

        E
Well, I know I should be touring

    A
I know these chords are boring

       E                           A
But I can't always be killing the game

    E                      A
No golden grand pianos or voices from the shadows

         E                     A
Will do anythin' but feel the same

                   B                A
And it feels like falling into the deep

                B               A
From somewhere way up over the peaks

              G#m                A
And I play discordant days on repeat

           G#m              A
Until the tape runs out on me

          A
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called

 B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?

C#m
Come up for air and choke on it all

A
What if I can't get up and stand tall?

  E
What if the diamond days are all gone

    B
And who will I be when thе empire falls?

                                   E
Wake up alonе and I'll be forgotten

     F#m    C#m            E             B
And nobody told me I'd be begging for relief

              A         B                    F#m
When what is silent to you feels like it's screaming to me

       F#m   C#m              E        B
Well, nobody told me I'd get tired of myself

        A               B               F#m
When it all looks like heaven, but it feels like hell

          A
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called

 B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?

C#m
Come up for air and choke on it all

A
What if I can't get up and stand tall?

  E
What if the diamond days are all gone

    B
And who will I be when thе empire falls?

                                   E
Wake up alonе and I'll be forgotten
