Intro Em | C |G | D/F#||x2
Verse 1
Em C G
I awoke Only to find my lungs empty
D/F# Em
And through the night
C G
So it seems I'm not breathing
D/F# Em C G
And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be
D/F# Em C G
And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down
D/F# Em C G
And I'm afraid To sleep because of what haunts me
D/F# Em C G
Such as living with the uncertainty
D/F# Em C
That I'll never find the words to say
G D/F#
Which would completely explain
Em C G D/F# N.C.
Just how I'm breaking down
Chorus
Dadd4(9)9 Em C
Someone come and, someone come and save my life
Dadd4(9) Em
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead
C
But now it's like the night is taking sides
Dadd4(9) Em C
With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
Dadd4(9) Em C
Could it be this misery will suffice?
