Verse 1:
      Am       G
If we run far away do you 
              F
think we will ever die?
      Em
We'll throw these 
             Dm
books in the fire
                 C
Can you stop the train
                B
Cause it some delay?
    Am             G
The change machine lied
             F        Em
And it's too late to scream


Chorus:
                Dm
How long is the night?
           F
It's never over
           Dm
It's never over
    Em
The ribbon was tied
        C              Dm
But the card was never read
           F
It's never over
           Dm
It's never over
    Em
The ribbon was crimson
    C
The color of the night


Verse 2:
Am
  Can you see the 
            C      F
handwriting on the walls
           Em                 Dm
And on the autumn leaves that fall
Dm                   C
  "What are we gonna do?"
                     B       Am
The trees are giving up on us
           C       G
The needle and the thread
                       F
Won't stitch us to the branch
        Em
And the night never ends
Dm                   C
  "What are we gonna do?"
                     B       Am
The trees are giving up on us
G                    F
  The needle and the thread
                       Am
Won't stitch us to the branch
                    Dm  C
And the night never ends
                Dm  C
the night never ends
It never ends
Dm C               Dm  Dm-- x2
    night it never ends


Bridge:
Am            Dm      F
I will never sleep again
(I will never even 
close my eyes)
(Repeat x4)


Verse 3:
       Am            G
If the sun is on its way
             F
Then we will never die
          Em
And we'll follow these 
              Dm
tracks to the sight
                 C
Now the lungs collapse
                       B
And the air is getting thin
Am           G
All breath expired
   F           Em
Is too late to heal?


(Repeat Chorus)


Verse 4:
F                 Em
  It's all I ever see anymore
        C
But the day was so
              Em Am
bright in the pictures
In the photo album that you gave me
F                    Em
  It's all I have to live for


Outro:
C
  I'm falling down
            Am
I'm falling down
And you're not sad
            F
to break my fall
I shut my eyes
             Em
when you're around
I hold my breath
to kill the sound
C
  I'm falling down
            Am
I'm falling down
And you're not here 
            F
to catch my fall
I shut my eyes 
             Em
when you're around
I hold my breath 
to kill the sound
C
  I'm falling down
            Am
I'm falling down
And you're not here
            F(hold)
to catch my fall
