VERSE 1
 
You a
Abm 
wake, lying  
Emaj7 
still
 
While  
F# 
light makes landfall in the  
E 
steel suburban room
 
The windows  
Abm 
show, row on  
Emaj7 
row
 
All the  
F# 
same – more people are summoned  
E/B 
round to chase to blue

Your 
 
 
A 
lips still  
E 
work, you  
B 
know your  
Abm 
name
 
But  
A 
know not  
E 
why nor  
B 
whence you  
Abm 
came
 
You  
A 
have no  
E 
past, you  
B 
have no  
A 
guilt

VERSE 2
 
You were a  
Abm 
drunk, you kept a filthy  
Emaj7 
home
 
And you  
F# 
hated hard with con
E 
fusion in your heart
 
The barren  
Abm 
weeks, the amnesiac  
Emaj7 
years
 
You’d put the  
F# 
world off till tomorrow and let de
E/B 
spair tear you apart
 
Abm 
Well, 
 
 
A 
now they’re  
E 
breaking 
 
 
B 
down the  
Abm 
door
 
You  
A 
hide 
 
a
E 
way, 
 
 
B 
safe no  
Abm 
more
 
Scream  
A 
as they  
E 
drag you  
B 
from your  
A 
bed
A 
When you recount from a bleeding head
