[Verse 1]
   C                      Em      F
I come home late setting shit on fire
       F                     G    C
Running from a ghost hanging by a wire
    C                           Em      F
You come home early, say you’re so damn tired
             F                     G       C
But you look just like her I can’t talk to either

    C                         Em    F
You say you need me, say it’s gonna kill you
            F                     G        C
You say I’m hollowed out, looking gray and see through
  C                      Em       F
I say I’m sorry, try and make the words true
         F                G       C
And hope eventually it’ll make us brand new


[Chorus]
                  F             C
Slow me down with chemicals and guilt
                       Am            Em
Hear my thoughts then drown them out until
                    F        C
Everything is going dark but still
     G                   F               C
You grab my hand and I’m wishing I could stay


[Verse 2]
   C                  Em          F
I close my eyes but I can’t start sleeping
          F                    G        C
Think I’m paranoid, think this house is breathing
    C                    Em          F
You crawl to bed but you can’t start dreaming
    F              G              C
You pass your time staring at the ceiling

    C                       Em      F
You nudge me twice, whisper out you miss me
  F                      G        C
I nudge you back, try to love you gently
   C                       Em      F
We talk for hours, just to try and fix things
       F                    G        C
Laying side by side feeling lost and Empty


[Chorus]
                  F             C
Slow me down with chemicals and guilt
                       Am            Em
Hear my thoughts then drown them out until
                    F        C
Everything is going dark but still
     G                   F               C
You grab my hand and I’m wishing I could stay
