Verse 1:
B5                   E5
  So how could I go on
                    B5
and where did we go wrong
can someone give
   F#5
me answers maybe
B5
  the way you looked 
in that dress 
E5
  so obviously selfish
B5
  can you just wake me in
    F#5
the end because I am

B5           F#5      Ab5

      Eb5
every word that I said
E5
  for every word that you could 
F#5                     B5
never get the nerve to say

so I can finally breathe
                   F#5
though suffocating isn't so bad
B5
  blood stains all over your bed
E5
  like finger nails down my back
B5
  can you just wake me 
       F#5
in the end because i am

every promise I made
for every promise you could 
F#5                     B5  E5
