Intro: B5  E5 A5

B5                    E5
I can't eat I can't sleep
           A5
I'm looking up at the satellite
B5                           E5
Where did we go wrong this time?
A5
Whoa

B5
Did you think this through? Do you have the facts?
E5                 A5
Oh I'm betting on a fight another heart attack
B5                              E5
All translation is lost, I'm so exhausted
A5
I'm coming undone

Chorus:
B5    A5
---- Sinking like a battleship
B5        A5                     B5
---- Am I ever gonna get through this?
B5         A5
---- We're standing on a fault line
B5           A5
---- Oh this happens all the time

Intro x2

B5                               E5
Well I can't think, I'm losing sleep
            A5
I'm staring up at the stars tonight
B5                         E5      A5
Where did we go wrong this time?

(Chorus)

B5         A5
---- We're sinking like a battleship
B5         A5            B5
---- We're sinking like a stone
      A5
We're barely hanging on
B5         A5            B5
---- We're sinking like a stone
      A5 (hold)
We're barely hanging on

Intro x2

Chorus (with last line)

B5         A5

End on Bm.

Lead line for the chorus:
E | ------------------------------ | 
B | ------------------------------ | 
G | --7-7-7~---------------------- | 
D | --7-7-7~-----7-0-5-0-4-0-2-0-- | 
A | --5-5-5~-(0)------------------ | 
E | --7-7-7~---------------------- | 

You can also play the chords like this:
   B5  E5 A5
E | --0---0---0-- | 
B | --3---3---3-- | 
G | --2---2---2-- | 
D | --0---0---0-- | 
A | --2-------0-- | 
E | ------------- | 

But the A5 chord just sounds like regular D.

It's not exact but it works well for acoustic.
