Intro: Cm A#
Cm A# G# D# (2 times)
Verse 1:
Cm A#
I'll say it straight and plain:
G#
I know I've made mistakes,
D#
I've always been afraid,
D#6 Cm
I've always been afraid.
A#
A thousand nights or more
G#
I travelled east and north,
D#
Please answer the door.
D#
Can you tell me?
Chorus:
Cm A# G#
You say that love goes anywhere,
Cm A# G#
In your darkest time it's just enough to know it's there.
Cm A# G#
When you go, I'll let you be,
Cm A# G#
But you're killing everything in me.

Verse 2:
Get down on your knees,
Whisper what I need,
Something pretty,
Something pretty.
I feel that when I'm old,
I'll look at you and know
The world was beautiful.
Then you tell me...
[Repeat chorus]
Bridge:
Fm G#
I'm done, there's nothing left to show,
Cm
I try but I can't let go.
A#
Are you happy where you're standing still?
Fm
Do you really want the sugar pill?
G#
I'll wake up tomorrow and I'll start,
Cm
To another it feels so hard.
A#
As a train approaches, getting on,
Fm
As I'm sure your kiss remains employed,
G#
Am I only dreaming?
[Repeat chorus]
Cm A# G#
When you go, I'll let you be...
Cm A# G#
But you're killing everything in me...
*** I recommend you to use the "F A# D# G# C F" tuning, so it'll be easier to play the song ***
That's all!
