Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
Introduction (Bell part): Eb5 , C5
Verse 1:
Eb5
As the car begins to roll
C5
I smile as I lose control
This weightlessness is such a gift
Eb5
'cause gravity has lost its hold
I see the sky, and then the ground
C5
Kaleidoscope of light and sound
Catching flashes of my life
Ab5
Just then the house lights all went out
Bb5 F5 Ab5
I want to know myself so bad it hurts
Bb5 F5
I am a shell holding on.
Chorus 1:
Eb5
I said goodbye so many times in my life
C5 Ab5
I'm surprised it's still so hard for me
Eb5
To see that I should start living my life
C5 Ab5
Or I will die unfulfilled and empty
Verse 2:
Eb5
I come to, still in the chair
C5
As yellow angels step with care
My spinal cord's still sending shocks
Eb5
Buy my life's in need of repair
There's got to be more than this
C5
I don't want to just exist as a hollow house for bones
Ab5
More alone every minute
Bb5 F5
Is there a place where I can start again?
Chorus 2:
Eb5
I said goodbye so many times in my life
C5 Ab5
I'm surprised it's still so hard for me
Eb5
To see that I should start living my life
C5 Ab5
Or I will die unfulfilled and empty
Eb5
Wake up, you're sleeping
C5 Ab5
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
Eb5 C5 Ab5
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
Eb5 F5 Ab5
Wake up, you're sleeping behind the wheel
