• Song:

  • Artist:

    Metric

Gm (drone)

            Eb                Bb
I'm just as fucked up as they say
Cm               Eb
I can't fake the daytime
         Bb            F             Eb
Found an entrance to escape into the dark

    Eb                   Bb
Got false lights for the sun
        Cm         Eb
It's an artificial nocturne
        Bb           F                 Eb
It's an outsider's escape for a broken heart

Cm                 Eb     Gm
We hide out in the back
     Cm                      Eb        
Like shadows in a stranger's dream
Gm                               Cm    Eb
 Hiding out in the back together
Gm                               Cm    Eb
 Hiding out in the back forever

  Gm
I make
              Eb/C Eb
All that I believe
   D
In dreams
   Gm
So real
Gm                       Eb/C Eb
Babe, I have to take the con
D                  Gm
Feet don't fail me now

   Gm
I make
               Eb/C Eb  
All that I believe
   D         Gm
I set myself free
   Gm                    Cm7 Cm
So take all the time you need
    D               [Note Sequence]
And let yourself be
