Alternatives for this artist

[Verse]
Bm
Would you pick your clothes up, put your clothes on,
Dm A
Pack your things and go?
B
I’m tired of sinking this low.
Bm D A
Awkward semi-naked coffee conversations fade, Quicker than mistakes that were made.
Bm D A
Mornings when I’m coming down, being driven round the bend,
C B
Make for days when I’m losing my friends
Em G A
For all the little things that I have done and cannot make amends.

[Chorus]
G D G A
Don’t you ever kind of wish that the world would just stop?
D G A
That the band would pack up and the curtain would drop?
D G A
I’ve been stuck inside the same old nights, the same old days off,
E G
And I need you now because I can’t get out of this.

[Verse]
Bm
Clean your mirrors, roll your notes out,
Dm A
Put your cards away.
B
That’s a game that I don’t want to play anymore.
Bm
My head is sore, my throat is raw, and what’s more
D A B
I’m fifty pounds down to feel empty and poor,
Em G A
Remembering the things that I believed when I was sober and sure.

[Chorus]
G D G A
Don’t you ever kind of wish that the world would just stop?
D G A
That the band would pack up and the curtain would drop?
D G A
I’ve been stuck inside the same old nights, the same old days off,
E G
And I need you now because I can’t get out of this.

[Bridge]
Bm C# D E
And I’m trying to speak straight,
G F#m A
But I’m drunk and I’m lonely and you won’t believe me,
Bm C# D E
And I’m trying to see straight,
G F#m E
But I’ve been up for days and it scares you away,
Bm C#m D E
And I’m trying to keep straight,
G
But I’d trade it all for just five minutes more
F#m E D A
Of your wandering hands with their simple demands that are
Em A
All the things I ever wanted, better than the powder and pills,
Em A
Honey, your all the things I ever needed, the only thing that doesn’t seem to kill,
C
That still makes me smile.

[Chorus]
G C D
So if I tell you all the little things that I think that I need,
G C D
Will you tell me how to tell the world from the woods from the trees?
G C D
Because I’ve been stuck inside my comforting familiar disease,
A C
And I need you now because I can’t get out,
A C
And all over Europe the lights are going out,
A C
And I’m pulling down the curtain, but every time I reach out
Em
You’re gone.
