[Verse 1]
F#m E D A Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you and hang them in my room F#m E A So when I'll wake up I'll be like "Yeah, everything's all right" F#m E You are still here, you are still happy. D A You are still smiling and laughing. F#m E A You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life A E And it goes in, in, out through the mouth F#m E Breathing exercises I will never figure out A So I am running in circles or E Walking in circles or F#m Crawling in circles or E D Lying on the ground.
[Chorus]
B And I E A Can hear your dog whistle from my bedroom. D Yeah, yeah B And I E Can see a flashlight cuttin' A Up the trees behind my house. D Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

[Verse 2]
F#m E She says a lot of the kids we graduated with are now homeless D A Which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people F#m E A If not everyday, then on an every other day basis F#m E And she's probably with a few of them right now D A And they are probably just drinking and talking about F#m E A How she misses gettin' fucked up and hangin' around F#m E D And he says "Hey, you're good at that" and she says "Thanks. It's kind of A F#m E A All I got, " and then she looks away and says, "It's also all I need" A E And I can smell plastic burning, F#m E I can smell chemicals breaking down A E I got your last three emails, F#m The ones where you said, E D "I was sorting some things out"
[Chorus]
B E A And he will be able to hear her dog whistle from his bedroom D Yeah yeah. B And I E Can see a flashlight cuttin' A Up the trees behind my house. D Yeah yeah. B And I will read the flashing D Like a Morse code explanation A Though it'll mean nothing
But take all night to figure out, out, out

F#m E D A I am sad, I am sad. And I am happy, oh God, I'm happy F#m E A There's just no place in between for us to meet F#m E D A But I am sad, I am sad, but when I am happy, oh God, I'm happy F#m E A There's just no place in between for us to meet F#m E D A When I am sad, oh God, I'm sad, but when I'm happy, I am happy F#m E A And there's just no place in between for us to meet F#m E D A When I am sad, oh God, I'm sad, but when I'm happy, I am happy F#m E A And there's just no place in between for us to meet A I am sad
