If you go, I'll come without a fiiiiiiight

I'm sick of hearing damning words of you come cursing through my head
Db                                                          Bb
And I'm too proud to sit here,chasing time, wasting things we shared,
              Eb
Or thought we had.
Ab             Db            Fm
You said, I'm you digging a home
Ab            Db               Fm

Db                                                              Fm
But you can turn it on and play the innocent, though you've been caught.
Db                                                      Fm
And I'm too proud to sit here, saying everything is how it was.

Never been this sure.

And when I least expect them to they'll devour me

   But she only came to gloat
                          G#m
It stuck right there in my throat
                           G
How she loved to turn the screw
                       D                          B
And leave you feel indebted to her fantasies and views

So surprised you saw it through
                      G#m
Couldn't help but notice

You'd covered all means of escape

Reduced a listener to a tear
                                G#m
Forgetting what had brought him here
                        G
Undoing everything he'd known
                  D           B
Left him wake up in the morning on his own

It's how you leave no time to breathe

All is not all that it seems

Thought the rest was just a breeze

Tell me you don't want to face this situation any more than
G / A / Em / D / Solo over the top
I do.
G                                                   A
So what does he have in store; does he need you to bleed?
Em                       D
Inadequate in all he breathes,
B                 C                      A             D
He claims that he knows you, says it's written in the stars,
B                       C
Will you believe this bullshit?
    Eb                           F                      G
If you don't want to face this situation any more then I don't.

This Boy Can't Swim-Catatonia
A                   D#        B            F#
This boy can't swim, he's wearing too many skins
A              D#            B              F#     F  F# F
I hope he sinks, then he'll forget everything
F#
Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together
B                      Bm
Then realised those he lied to were cleverer
F#
Left on the side they have long since you joined him
B                         Bm                          F#
Back in the fold thick as thieves they will weigh him down
C#\A   (slides down to A from C#)
2nd verse (chords as above)
This boy can't swim he's carrying too many sins
I hope he sinks, till he forgets everything
2nd Chorus
'good as gold' alternates with 'thick as thieves'

You should know by now that the common thread is taut
              G           Em
I'd like to stay but you just won't listen
A                    G                Em
Disappointment I'd take though there's no point to it
Gm
I blew it

If you could think aloud, it won't mean anything will change
             G                     Em
As tests go wrong and we deny it together
A                  G          Em
Or a second of thought might ache forever

But did you ever go too far up against your own persuasion
                          G
Consummate madness then despise
D                Em7         D          Em7              A
You should have learnt by now that the common thread is taut

It's hard to reflect when your world is sighing
A                 G                 Em
You could never catch up and there's no use trying
Gm         D   Gm       D
I blew it          I blew it       I blew it
Gm                                   D
And if the gods were on your side I couldn't let you slide
