[Intro]
C Bb Am F (x2)
[Verse 1]
I saw it all, happened on the [C]golden sheets
In the [C]morning, you were asleep
Hazy in your gol[C]den days
[Verse 2]
[C] There was a [Bb]child
Moving on her [C]mother's breast[Bb]
Breathing only [C] dust in the [Bb]light
But you know it's a[C]wfully hard to dream
C Bb Am F (x2)
[Verse 3]
[C]I was a knight in my mother's arms
Black as mourning [C] wearing the [Bb]lights[Am][F]
Glowing so my [C]sister could see
[Verse 4]
[C] I felt it [Bb]all[Am]
But you know it's [C]awfully hard [Bb] [Am] to talk about it
[C] Try to re[Bb]call[Am][F]
The girls when I was [C]seventeen[Bb] A [Am]dream[F]
[Chorus]
[C]Know this can't be [Bb]right
But it's a[Am]wfully hard to fight
When it's going [C]quickly and it's [Bb]like
We're [Am]half as[F]leep
There's no rosy [C]almost days be[Bb]hind
These [Am]painted lady eyes
Let it go and [C]all that they im[Bb]ply
Get [Am]over [F]me
[Verse 5]
[C] I was a[G]fraid[F][Dm]
When I [C]left my home[G][F]
And my mother [C] sadness, my [Bb]friend[Am][F]
She used to [C]play for me[Bb] a[Am]nd s[F]ing
C G F Dm (x4)
[Chorus]
[C]Know this can't be [Bb]right
But it's a[Am]wfully hard to fight
When it's going [C]quickly and it's [Bb]like
We're [Am]half as[F]leep
There's no rosy [C]almost days be[Bb]hind
These [Am]painted lady eyes
Let it go and [C]all that they im[Bb]ply
Get [Am]over [F]me
[Outro]
It's [C]hard to talk a[Bb]bout
When [Am]inside you're freaking out
When it's going [C]quickly and you [Bb]doubt
You're [Am]any[F]thing
But it's what we [C]have instead of [Bb]God
What we [Am]have instead of God
What we [C]have instead of [Bb]God
We're [Am]any[F]thing
But it's what we [C]have instead of [Bb]God
What we [Am]have instead of God
What we [C]have instead of [Bb]God
We're [Am]any[F]thing
What we [C]have instead of [Bb]God
Like the [Am]moment after love
When we know we fi[C]nally kill the [Bb]buzz
So [Am]we can [F]sleep
And we can [C]finally let it [Bb]lie
While the [Am]days keep passing by
Carried on the [C]little deaths we [Bb]die
Then [Am]we can [F]sleep
