F#

Woke up from another dream

with the clouds in my head

sat down by the window watched the sunrise burning red

I guess I'm doing alright now

but there's too much time to kill

A E F#

I can't forget you lying there so still

Picture back to another time

I see you sitting here

you said would you ever forgive me if I chose to disappear

I turned away and closed my eyes

I didn't think I could

A E F#

If that's what you want I guess I would

A E F#

if that's what you want I guess I would

B

You know I can't live like everyone else

F#

nothing ever seems that simple in my head

B

feel myself slipping away

F#

don't want to wind up helpless in my bed

E B E B

This time I want to get out and walk but I think I'll fall

E B E B E B C#

INSTRUMENTAL CHORUS

E B E B E B C#

I can see myself in so many ways

but I curse myself instead

was there something I should have done

something else I could have said

you know I tried to change it but I can't forgive you still

If that's what you want I guess I will

if that's what you want I guess I will

You know I can't live like everyone else

nothing ever comes that simple in my head

feel myself slipping away

tired of waking up lonely in my bed

This time I want to get out and walk but I think I'll fall

this time I want to get out but I think I'll fall

E B E B E B C#
