Intro : G , C9 (x2)

G       C9  G          C9            G
Im on a train, but theres no one at the helm
             C9       G
And theres a demon in my brain
    C9        G           C9
Who starts to overwhelm whelm whelm

G , C9 (2x)

    G        C9 G       C9      G
And there it goes, my last chance for peace
    C9  G           C9      G
You lay me down, but I get no release
      Em7            A7           A74
And I say i, I try to keep awake
       C9          G
I try to swim beneath
       A7
I try to keep awake
    Em7                          C9
But i, I can feel this narcolepsy slide
(no guitar here)
Into another nightmare

"bridge": G , C9 (2-3x)

             G                    C9
And there's a demon in my head who starts to play
      G                          C9
A nightmare tape loop of what went wrong yesterday
      G                            C9
And I hold my breath till its more than I can take
      G                              C9
And I close my eyes and dream that Im awake
         D      C      G   (not sure for D C
here)
I try to keep awake
       D      C      G
I try to keep awake
       D      C
I try to keep awake
    Em7                           C9
But i, I can feel this narcolepsy slide
(no guitar here)
Into another nightmare

The rest of the song is pretty much the same, you can figure it out for yourself I think :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I read dead Russian authors volumes at a time
I write everything down except whats on my mind
Cause my greatest fear is that sucking sound
And then I know that Ill never get back out
And there's a bone in my hand that connects to a drink
In a crowded room where the glasses clink
And Ill buy you a beer and well drink it deep
Because that keeps me from falling asleep I said
How'd you like to be alone and drowning
How'd you like to be alone and drowning
How'd you like to be alone and drowning
How'd you like to be alone and drowning
Still I find this narcolepsy slide slide
Into another nightmare
Keep awake, keep awake, keep awake
And I can feel this narcolepsy slide
