Verse 1:
      A5       G5
If we run far away do you 
              F5
think we will ever die?
      E5
We'll throw these 
             D5
books in the fire
                 C5
Can you stop the train
                B5
Cause it some delay?
    A5             G5
The change machine lied
             F5        E5
And it's too late to scream


Chorus:
                D5
How long is the night?
           F5
It's never over
           D5
It's never over
    E5
The ribbon was tied
        C5              D5
But the card was never read
           F5
It's never over
           D5
It's never over
    E5
The ribbon was crimson
    C5
The color of the night


Verse 2:
A5
  Can you see the 
            C5      F5
handwriting on the walls
           E5                 D5
And on the autumn leaves that fall
D5                   C5
  "What are we gonna do?"
                     B5       A5
The trees are giving up on us
           C5       G5
The needle and the thread
                       F5
Won't stitch us to the branch
        E5
And the night never ends
D5                   C5
  "What are we gonna do?"
                     B5       A5
The trees are giving up on us
G5                    F5
  The needle and the thread
                       A5
Won't stitch us to the branch
                    D5  C5
And the night never ends
                D5  C5
the night never ends
It never ends
Dm C               Dm  Dm-- x2
    night it never ends


Bridge:
A5            D5      F5
I will never sleep again
(I will never even 
close my eyes)
(Repeat x4)


Verse 3:
       A5            G5
If the sun is on its way
             F5
Then we will never die
          E5
And we'll follow these 
              D5
tracks to the sight
                 C5
Now the lungs collapse
                       B5
And the air is getting thin
A5           G5
All breath expired
   F5           E5
Is too late to heal?


(Repeat Chorus)


Verse 4:
F5                 E5
  It's all I ever see anymore
        C5
But the day was so
              E5 A5
bright in the pictures
In the photo album that you gave me
F5                    E5
  It's all I have to live for


Outro:
C5
  I'm falling down
            A5
I'm falling down
And you're not sad
            F5
to break my fall
I shut my eyes
             E5
when you're around
I hold my breath
to kill the sound
C5
  I'm falling down
            A5
I'm falling down
And you're not here 
            F5
to catch my fall
I shut my eyes 
             E5
when you're around
I hold my breath 
to kill the sound
C5
  I'm falling down
            A5
I'm falling down
And you're not here
            F(hold)
to catch my fall
