If you wish to play without a capo, using the transpose tool to move the key down 6 half 
steps will put you in the same key as the recorded version.

[capo 6]


G
I'm still frustrated from last night
        Am         Em
Things happened at half-time, I'm sick of the bends
G
My panic research was no help
  Am        Em
I sink into myself
                        D     C
Afraid of the fall that never ends
   D               Em
I wait, but I'm too tired to play pretend
C        D                G Am Em
I suffocate until the end


G
No time for half-hearted goodbyes,
   Am          Em
I turn on the spotlight and flee from the scene
G
Cheap flights from Paris to Bangkok,
  Am              Em
I thought it was nonstop
                     D   C
Can't sleep on the KLM again
  D                    Em
I haunt the halls of medicine at night
C         D                    G Am Em
Choking back the urge to fight


G
Her cat was clawing the floorboards
     Am          Em
just outside of our door, the panic begins
G
I searched the whole damn apartment
     Am           Em
from ceiling to carpet
                          D       C
No sign of the things she used to own
   D                 Em
As autumn turns its back on me again
C            D               G Am Em
I climb the walls for oxygen


    C              Em
My body aches, it heaves, it shakes
    Am                     D
And summersaults through so-called art
       Am             Em            C
And I still don't know exactly who I am
  D
I never will, amen.


G
She whispers something in my ear,
     Am        Em
the message is unclear, she motions outside.
G
I trail her closely from behind
Am                 Em
She tries hard not to cry
                          D       C
She shakes underneath the pouring rain
    D                Em
I can't compete with all your damn ideas
C      D             Em
This isn't working out for you and me
C      D               Em
The truth is I'm too tired to play pretend
C           D                G
This is goodbye, this is the end.
