intro/verses D|Asus4|G|G

  D           Asus4
i dreamt of a fever, 
                G                               D  
one that would cure me of this cold, winter set heart.
             Asus4               G 
with heat to melt these frozen tears and burned with reasons

as to carry on. 
D           Asus4                            G
into these twisted months i plunge without a light to follow
       D                        Asus4
but i swear that i would follow anything 
                               G
if it would just get me out of here.
Bm             
But you get six months to adapt
G          
and then you get two more to leave town.
Bm
in the event that you do adapt
A
we still might not want you around.
      D                         Asus4 
and i fell for the promise of a life with a purpose
      G 
but i know that that is impossible now.
         D             Asus4 
and so i drink to stay warm
        G
and to kill selected memories
          D                        Asus4                      G
because i just can't think anymore about that or about her tonight
Bm
but i give myself three days to feel better
G
or else i swear i'll drive right off a fucking cliff
Bm
'cause if i can't learn to make myself feel better
A
how can i expect anyone else to give a shit?
      D                            Asus4
and i scream for the sunlight or a car to take me anywhere
                       G
just get me past this dead and eternal snow
          D                    Asus4
'cause i swear that i'm dying, slowly but it's happening
            G
and if the perfect spring is waiting somewhere
               D                    Asus4               G
just take me there, just take me there, just take me there
                           D           Asus4         G
and say, and lie to me, and say, and lie to me, and say

it's going to be alright [x9]
