The song is in D standard (D G C F A D)
[Verse 1]
Em G C I know the feeling in the morning when the sun Em G C Lights the dust that hangs in orbit as you're waking up Em G C And for a moment you feel weightless then the panic comes Em G C First a drizzle, then a downpour, then an endless flood Em G You start to run C Brothers in the summer dust Em G Far enough C That no one's ever catching us
[Verse 2]
Em G C I know the feeling when the light begins to fade Em G C And the dishes in the sink look like a mountain range Em G C You try to will yourself to stand but you can't find the strength Em G C Threw your head against the cold glass of the window pane Em G You're afraid C Of what happens when it finally breaks Em G And all that remains C Bm D Is shattered glass and constant gray
[Chorus]
G F#m C
G F#m Bruised and paper cut C G F#m C I built a thousand paper cranes for good luck Am But I can't protect you C I had my chance and I fucked it up
[Verse 3]
Em G C I stare for years at all the duct tape on the door Em G C Held together like a patient in a trauma ward Em G C I still don't know what the fuck we kept it for Em G C This house is haunted, I can't live in here anymore Em G All the time C Realised you weren't on the other side Em G Overnight C Can't imagine what that must've felt like
[Chorus]
G F#m C
G F#m Bruised and paper cut C G F#m C I built a thousand paper cranes for good luck Am But I can't protect you C I had my chance and I fucked it up

[Bridge]
Em I had that nightmare again F#m G You fall and you're helpless
Trapped under the wreckage
D Em You reach out your hand and I'm weak, I can't save you F#m G No matter how often it plays in my head I can't lift it
[Chorus]
G F#m C
G F#m Bruised and paper cut C G F#m C I built a thousand paper cranes for good luck Am But I can't protect you C Em F#m G G D C I had my chance and I fucked it all up Em F#m G C D I fucked it all up
