Intro: B5 C#5 D5 E5 D5

       B5 C#5 D5 E5 D5

       B5 C#5 D5 E5 F#5 G5 F#5 E5

       B5 C#5 D5 E5 F#5 F5 F#5 E5

         B5 B5
Just in  case
B5   B5       B5    B5
I will leave my things packed
   D5              B5 B5
So I can run away
B5     B5           B5 B5  D5
I cannot trust these voices
        B5
I don't have a lot of prospects
          A5
That can give some kind of peace
          B5
There is nothing left to cling to
          A5
That can bring me sweet release


                    G5      D5
I have no fear of drowning
          A5
It's the breathing
        B5
That's taking all this work


        G5
Do you know
        A5
What I mean
        B5
When I say
         A5      G5
"I don't wanna be alone"
        A5
What I mean
        B5
When I say
         A5       B5 C#5 D5 E5 F#5 G5 F#5 E5
"I don't wanna be alone"

 
B5 C#5 D5 E5 F#5 G5 F#5 E5

     B5 B5
Empty spaces
    B5 B5       B5 B5
Shadows  hit by streetlights
     D5                B5 B5
The warning signs and weight
   B5 B5        B5 B5   D5
Of  tired  conversations
 

        G5          
In the absence of a shoulder
        A5
In the absence of a thief
        G5
On the brink of this destruction
        A5
On the eve of bittersweet
             G5                 D5
Now all the demons look like prophets
         A5
And I'm living out
B5
Every word they speak
B5                    G5 A5 B5
Every word they speak


       G5
Do you know
       A5
What I mean
       B5
When I say
         A5        G5
"I don't wanna be alone"
        A5
What I mean
        B5
When I say
         A5       G5
"I don't wanna be alone"


       A5
What I mean
        B5
When I say
         A5       G5
"I don't wanna be alone"


    A5
What I mean
        B5
When I say
         A5         G5     D5 B5 A5
"I don't wanna be alone"


          G5         D5
I have no fear of drowning
           A5 
It's the breathing
      B5
It's taking all this work
