Verse: C#m, B, E, A, C#m, B, E (2 measures)

Bridge: A, B, C#m, Ebm

Chorus: E, B, A, B

Verse:

C#m B

Feel, don't watch the mercury drop

E A

Things fell apart and then I turned and stopped and said

C#m B E

I can't go on anymore like this

Verse x2

Save me from the tired hums

The crooked stares of the broken ones

One by one, let's watch them all disappear

I used to climb up to the attic at night

I'd end up in the basement screaming

I'm floating above all of you now

Bridge:

A B C#m Ebm

It feels like now they've got me by the throat

Chorus:

E B

You make it sound so sincere

A A

I never believe what I always hear

Chorus: x3

I never thought I'd see the day

They've got me by the throat

I'm force-fed all the answers

My paranoia spreads like cancer

I'm so far from all my problems now

C#m, B

E

So I packed what's left of me and I'm leaving

C#m B E

These city walls are closing in on me

Verse:

Take me back before it all began

Before I'd run and before I cared

Sometimes my best just isn't enough

Chorus: x4

You make it sound so sincere

I never believe what I always hear

I never thought I'd see the day

They've got me by the throat

My paranoia just spreads like cancer

I'm so far from all my problems now

All of the things that I've left behind

Have washed out to sea and soon comes

The day that a hard rain falls on me
