[Intro]
F Am x4
F
[Verse 1]
DmGold light breaks behind the houses
FI don't see what's strange about this
DmTiny bubbles hang above me
FIt's a sign that someone loves me
DmI can hardly stand upright
FHit my head up on the light
DmI have faith but don't believe it
FIt's not there enough to leave it
[Pre-Chorus]
DmEverything I love is on the table F
AmEverything I love is out to Fsea C
[Verse 2]
DmI have only two emotions
FCareful fear and dead devotion
I can't get the balance right
CWith all my marbles in the fight
DmI see all the ones I wept for
FAll the things I had it in for
I won't cry until I hear
CCause I was not supposed to be here
[Pre-Chorus]
DmEverything I love is on the table F
AmEverything I love is out to Fsea C
[Chorus]
CI'm not alone
Bb I'll never Dmbe
And to the Fbone
I'm everBbgreen
[Verse 3]
DmI'm tired, I'm freezing, I'm dumb
FWhen it gets so late I forget everyone
DmI need somewhere to stay
FDon't think anybody I know is awake
DmCalm down, it's alright
FKeep my arms the rest of the night
DmWhen they ask what do I see
FI say "a bright white beautiful heaven hanging over me"
DmI F Dm
[Chorus]
C I'm not alone
Bb I'll never Dmbe
And to the Fbone
I'm everBbgreen
And if you want (dead seriously)
To see me Dmcry (don't swallow the cap)
Play "Let It FBe" (pat yourself on the back)
Or "NeverBbmind" (dead seriously)
[Verse 4]
Is it Dmtime to leave? Is it time to think about€
FWhat I wanna say to the girls at the door
I Dmneed somewhere to be
FBut I can't get around the river in front of me
DmCalm down, it's alright
FLead my arms the rest of the night
When they ask what do I see
BbI say "a Cbright white beautiful heaven hanging over me"
[Chorus]
C I'm not alone
Bb I'll never Dmbe
And to the Fbone
I'm everBbgreen
And if you want (dead seriously)
To see me Dmcry (don't swallow the cap)
Play "Let It FBe" (pat yourself on the back)
Or "NeverBbmind" (dead seriously)
