STANDARD TUNING, NO CAPO
It's very important that you play the D and D/F# chords like this:
  D        D/F#
 | ---3--- | -----3-- | 
 | -2----- | ---2---- | 
 | ---3--- | -----3-- | 
 | ------- | -------- | 
 | ------- | ---2---- | 

Strum with feeling, like a heartbeat. 


D5               
The night is deafening when the silence is listening
G5
And I'm down and my knees, and I know that something is missing
D5
Because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in
A5
But I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them


D5
I'm a bit of a manic when it's not as I plan
G5
Cause I start losing my head and then I get up in a panic
D5
Remember when we were kids and always knew when to quit it
A5
Are we denying a crisis or are we scared of admitting


G5                        A5
I don't want to know
G5                     A5
I just want to run to you
D5                                      D5
And break off the chains, and throw them away
G5                    A5
I just want to be so much
D5                                       D5
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
G5                           A5
Sooner than later, I need a saviour
G5
I need a saviour


D5
It won't ever change if you want it to stay the same
G5
I really hate it but I know it's hard to choose if you're chained
D5
And when it's all you control cause you've got nothing left to hold
A5
You're getting tighter and tighter, it's getting hard to let it go


G5                        A5
I don't want to know


G5                     A5
I just want to run to you
D5                                      D5
And break off the chains, and throw them away
G5                    A5
I just want to be so much
D5                                       D5
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
G5                           A5
Sooner than later, I need a saviour
G5
I need a saviour


G5                         A5
Stand me up and maybe I won't be so small
G5                               
Free my hands a feet and maybe I won't always fall...
D5
save me


G5                     A5
I just want to run to you
D5                                      D5
And break off the chains, and throw them away
G5                    A5
I just want to be so much
D5                                       D5
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
G5                           A5
Sooner than later, I need a saviour
G5                      D5
I need a saviour
