Intro/Verse:
F                                 
Don't tell me, You're done for.
A#
I don't need to hear, You're done for.
Dm
You can tell me what you are running from.
A#
I need you, More than you need you.
F
I can see you're really really running.
A#
May I ask you where you gonna run to?
Dm
And you think you're living as a ghost now,
A#
Not quite, heaven's ugly angel.

Pre-Chorus:
Dm                    C
We all feel like we're breaking sometime,
    A#                            
But I won't let you go tonight.

Chorus:
F                       
Stay awake, stay awake survive
Dm                         
I've got nineteen stars that I
A#             C  
Gave your name tonight.
F                                 Dm
I wanna scream, wanna scream your name
                       A#
Starlight, my life can save
         C             F
You're my wish tonight.

Verse:
F
Don't tell me, nothing matters
A#
I'll tell you what, what matters
Dm
Bare feet in the summer
A#
Open windows at night
F
You think that no one needs you
A#
You have nothing to see through
Dm
Well, I need you, I need you
A#
Don't I count in this fight?

Pre-Chorus:
Dm                C
It's morning now, Time to suffer again
A#
A safety that drunk can't find.

(Back to Chorus)

Bridge:
Dm                                       A#
   No one can catch me, the way that you catch me
                                  F
Way that you keep me when I'm out of time
                                  C    
What if I need you and when I can't see you?

And I'm running out of life.
Dm                                      A#
   No one can catch me, the way that you catch me
                                 F
Way that you keep me when I'm out of time
                                   C
What if I need you and when I can't see you?
                           Dm   A#   F   C (hear the song you'll get it)
And I'm running out of life...

G                         Em
Stay awake, stay awake survive
                          C
I've got nineteen stars that I
                        Dm
Stay awake, stay awake survive
                       G
Stay awake, stay awake survive

I wanna scream

Wanna scream your name

Starlight, my life can save

You're my wish, oh, you're my wish and I'm sad
