Tom: C
Introdução:
Am-- C-- Am-- C
Am
I just drove under the Lincoln sign
C
To where New Jersey meets the New York line
G
And through the tunnel for the last time
F
With everything crumbling behind
Am
I stood still until I felt the shakes
C
Of two bodies that were parting ways
G
I didn't want to be the one to say
F
I know this hurts but it's time to break
Am G Dm F
In two pieces, the fault line is not secure
Am G F G
A boat or bridge is needed to get back to her
Chorus
C G
I feel like I am paralyzed
Am G F
When I look at the extra space left in my bed
And think about all the things we did
C G
At least I'm feeling more alive
Am G F
But I still have some old weight that I've got to shed
Before I find happiness
Am
I make mountains out of my worries
C
And I plant pain instead of sturdy trees
G
I have got to wash these old sheets
F
So I can fall asleep
Am
There are times, there are times I reach for the phone
C
To tell you that there might still be some hope
G
Holding on to the slack of rope
F
But that's the whiskey talking, so
Am G Dm F
I hope that you can find some peace in life
Am G
Can you survive without me?
F
'Cause I thought I'd be fine.
G
Now I am slurring every single line.
Chorus
C G
I feel like I am paralyzed
Am G F
When I look at the extra space left in my bed
And think about all the things we did
C G
At least I'm feeling more alive
Am G F
But I still have some old weight that I've got to shed
Am C
I've got to move on before I can find happiness
Am C
This isn't fair, nobody taught me (how to let go)
Am C
"Just be here now" and you'll be set free from sorrow?
Am C
But at this time, I don't see clearly (How will I know?)
Am C
What is the point? What is the meaning?
Am F
Now I'm struggling, I black out so I can't dream
C G
But I still see you sneaking through my weary head
Am F
I suffer from a drought of medicine to dull self-doubt
C G
I just wanna drown you out with southern poison
Am F
If I had a drink for every Goddamn time I think
C
About your pale skin dressed in pink
G
Then at least I could sleep
Am F
If I had a shot for every Goddamn time I thought
C
About your face and what I lost
G Am
At least I'd get some sleep
F C G Am
Sleep, sleep, at least I'd get some sleep
F C G Am
Sleep, sleep, then at least I'd get some sleep
