But she never really knew me at all

Now, what's the thought that'll change me?

Guess your pieces didn't shape me after all
TRANSITION 1:
Cm - Dm - D#
CHORUS 1:
G F7 Em
How do you sleep through the night?
D C
It's so sad, and she says;
G F7 Em
"These are the things that aren't right
D C
in your head" - so I'm like;
G F7 Em C A7
"Could you describe being alive?
D#7
Knowing you must suffer too, survive"

VERSE 3:
G C
So, what's with love - means attention
G C
What's with lost - as direction?
G Em Cm Cm6
What with old pain that'll beckon to the weak
VERSE 4:
G C
What's with hate - had redemption
G C
What's with trust - needs rejection

What with killing the dance that we seek?

G F7 Em
So how do you sleep through the night?
D C
It's so sad, and she says;

Knowing you must suffer too, survive"

G - C (x2)
BRIDGE:
D#7 C
Baby, when you threw the cup
F G
You knew I wouldn't pick it up
D#7 C
And maybe, there's another life
F D
That took you away
D#7 C
And life is like a photograph
F G
You tear it up and send it back
D#7 C
But please no more pictures today
CHORUS 3:
G F7 Em
So, how do you sleep through the night?
D C
It's so sad, and she says;
G F7 Em
"These are the things that aren't right

in your head" - so I'm like;

"Could you describe being alive?

Knowing you must suffer too, you really do"

Knowing you must suffer too, survive"
