Intro: Am  G/B C  Dm  Am  G/B C  F (x2)


Verse 1:
       Am                           G/B    C
I wake up at the end of a long dark lonely year
              Dm               Am
it's bringing out the worst in me
                        G/B         C
I hear your voice start breaking in fear
                   F
when the lights go down
       Am                    G/B     C
and I still feel you looking over my shoulder
                         Dm
your sinking guilt and approaching nightmare
Am                           G/B
  and I know none of us will survive
C                   F
  cause I know everything


Interlude: Am  G/B C  Dm  Am  G/B C  F


Verse 2:
       Am                               G/B   C
and my dear I need you to move a little faster
                       Dm
the second cast is the rest of your life
Am                             G/B   C     
  your final word and an itchy finger
                 F
then it's taken away
          Am                              G/B    C
and we'll be beaten down without mercy or meaning
                    Dm
I turn my face to a careless skyline
Am                                   G/B   C                      
  I'm searching hard for a sign from heaven
                         F
but they've forgotten me here


Chorus:
C                   Dm              Am
  You can just stop talking I get it
(I hear your silence loud and clear)
C                     Dm                        Am
  I know its barely a thought, but it'll see us through
C                 Dm                    Am
  I'm only saying please to just let it happen
(let it happen and we'll make it through)
C                        Dm              Am
  yeah you can just stop talking I get it


Interlude: Am  G/B C  Dm  Am  G/B C  F


Verse 2:
Am                          G/B     C
  Sex, fuck and flourescent lighting
                     Dm
a hollow point on an angry bullet
Am                             G/B C
  we're on the teeth of a crocodile
                        F
we're in the mouth of a gun
        Am                                      G/B   C
and sometimes at night I feel I'm just a broken vessel
                     Dm
an instrument with a darker purpose
Am                                       G/B     C
  I'm at the throat of the young and the helpless
                             F
cause they've got nothing to say


(Repeat Chorus)


Bridge: C  Dm  Am   Ab (x2)
