  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#

END ON C#
