Chords

[Intro] (All Chords are Power Chords) G E F Gb x4 [Verse 1]

G

'Cause the thrill isn't mine to invite in

Just the chill when I learn that it's finally my turn

I have finally earned my place in the urn
[tab]C
And I take a fall

But I keep my hands soft I keep my body limp and I move with the wind

                            Bb                      G
I'll go where it bends and let go of the expectation

G E F Gb [Verse 2]

G
I'm not getting excited

'Cause the light on my phone's got me hiding When it flashes at night, it's the bringer of signs I can see through my eyelids, I know that it's time

      C
And I hold it all

But I keep my hands soft All the answering, asking, my thoughts are a rat king

                                 Bb
There's no point untangling the thought from the action

         G
I'm awake

G E F Gb [Chorus]

D                          C
What is it like, the other side

              Bb                G
Where all my vital signs aren't fading away?

D                       C
Violent dreams keep me awake

           Bb               G
I wear the same face in the morning

A warning [Instrumental Bridge] G E F Gb [Verse 3]

G
I'm not getting excited

'Cause my fight and my flight are divided And so I don't enthuse, keep my grip on joy loose And I wait for the news with my feet in my shoes

      C
And I lose it all

With one foot out the door When I smile, I lie with my eye to the side

     Bb
So I greet with goodbye, I greet with goodbye

      G
Yeah, goodbye

N.C. [Chorus]

D                          C
What is it like, the other side

              Bb                G
Where all my vital signs aren't fading away?

D                       C
Violent dreams keep me awake

           Bb               G
I wear the same face in the morning
