================================
NOTES:
1. Use barre chords with a ska/reggae rhythm (except for the power chords during the outro).
2. E should be played as a C-shaped barre chord except during the bridge, where it
should be played as an open chord.
3. If you want to play this song with all open chords (or on a ukulele or
something), try transposing it +3 half steps.
4. These lyrics and chords are only how I interpreted the song, so feel free to
experiment/substitute/comment/etc. if you disagree!
5. Enjoy!

INTRO:
F#m Bm E A C#
F#m Bm E A C#
VERSE 1:
F#m Bm
Wake up in bed screaming so silently
E A C#
Punch out the walls of insecurity
F#m Bm
Make up instead and say that I'll be fine
E A C#
I spread these kinds of rumors all the time
F#m Bm
My barricade is like a prison fence
E A C#
The way I'm feeling when I smile: "They really make no sense"
F#m Bm
Lights in my room just like a starry night
E A
And that's the way that it goes,
C#
that's just the way that it goes
CHORUS:
D A
When there's nobody around you,
E
no one to profound you
F#m
Just leave me alone,
don't leave me by myself
D A
I see no friends, only strangers
C#
that don't know my danger

VERSE 2:
F#m Bm
I drink my coffee from a paper cup
E A C#
It doesn't keep my hands warm enough
F#m Bm
Making some plans so I have something to break
E A C#
Looking alive so I have something to fake
F#m Bm
There's no protection when the demons come
E A C#
I hear the screaming pound on my eardrums
F#m Bm
This house is haunted now that nobody knows
E A
That's just way that it goes
C#
that's just the way that it goes
[CHORUS]

BRIDGE:
Bm
Tell me that this is a dream
F#m E
Give me the weightlessness I need
Bm
I'm floating around this room now
F#m E
Escaping the memory stampede
Bm
I think I can see my mother
F#m E
Living without her's made me weak
Bm
I'm fighting a losing battle
F#m E
I am a game of hide and seek
[CHORUS X 2]
