Really love this song! If you find any problems with this, please do comment or e-mail me!
This is the key in which it was played in, but Tessa uses a capo I believe, so it will
sound slightly different from the chords below.


Key: E


Verse 1:

E
You met me in my dreams last night
C#m
Same dark eyes, familiar sight
A                                   E         B
Broken words I've dreamt a hundred times

E
But you were strange and staggered too
C#m
Like what you said I'd scripted through
A                                    E        B
I guess this means I'm getting over you


Pre-Chorus:

C#m
Why do I still dream of you?
A
Why do you still come?
E                         G#m
Is it to remind me of the evil things I've done?
C#m                              A
Why am I still followed by your ghost, your memory?
E                    B                E
And why do I still hope you think of me?


Chorus:

C#m
Every night inside my bed
A
You creep into my head
E
I am just a b-b-b-broken
G#m
Broken record

C#m
Every night inside my dream
A
I replay the same old thing
E
I am just a b-b-b-broken
G#m
Broken record


Verse 2:

E
The strangest part I'd have to say
C#m
Is I don't want him anyway
A                               E        B
Maybe I just want what I can't have

E
Maybe it's the tragedy
C#m
Or maybe it's the girl in me
A                                 E         B
Who just wants to be wanted by a man


Pre-Chorus:

C#m                               A
Or maybe I just think of him when I am on my own
E                                    G#m
'Cause maybe make believe is not as lonely as alone
C#m                                A
Silence brings the truth, but it breaks the fantasy
E                 B            E
The only one I'm talkin' to is me


Chorus:

C#m
Every night inside my bed
A
You creep into my head
E
I am just a b-b-b-broken
G#m
Broken record

C#m
Every night inside my dream
A
I replay the same old thing
E
I am just a b-b-b-broken
G#m
Broken record


Interlude: C#m


Bridge:
F#m
To soak in past and breath in dirt
C#m
To cling to not escaping hurt
A
Is it a choice repeating struggles
G#m
Maybe trapped or mostly troubled


Interlude:
C#m    A      E     G#m  (x2)


Chorus:

C#m
Every night inside my bed
A
You creep into my head
E
I am just a b-b-b-broken
G#m
Broken record

C#m
Every night inside my dream
A
I replay the same old thing
E
I am just a b-b-b-broken
G#m
Broken record

Last Chord: C#m


(04/03/2014)Version 1  : Posted
(04/05/2014)Version 1.1: Edited last chord to C#m instead of C# (Thanks Delta_38)


Notes:
To Delta_38: The G#m chord used throughout is correct. I have transposed this into
the key of C(-4 tuning) and the chord used is Em and not E. Also, in theory, the
chord progression for the chorus is 6-4-1-3, and the key is E Major.
The 2, 3 and 6 chords in major keys are minor chords. This translates to C#m-A-E-G#m.
