Monster – Paul Waters
Am F C G Am Dm C G
Am A C
I can’t sleep, love, it’s hard to think
And I’m drowning in another drink
G
And I’m wasting my time again
Am
And I’m hurting deep inside
F
There’s no place left for me to hide
C
And it’s dark here
G
So where’s my light?
Am
Well I’m lying if I said I’m okay
F C
Cause the truth is I’m out of place
G
I don’t feel like anybody here
Am F
Oh but I’m trying the best I can
Dm C G
And I know you don’t understand how I ended up this way
F Am F Am F
There was a monster in my head and memories
Am C F Am
All the places that I’ve been and all I’ve seen
F Am F
Well I am better now I wish you all could see
Am F Am
That a monster is no longer with me
C Em
Tell me it’ll be alright and
C G
Maybe I can sleep tonight and tomorrow it won’t feel like today
Am C
I can’t stop, love, I’m not okay and I feel it every day
I’m losing
G
I need to find a way
Am
Yeah but it’s hard when I’m all alone
F C G
When the lights are off and no one’s home but the monsters in my head
Am
Yeah well, this ain’t really me
C F C G
It’s just the broken piece you see lying on the floor beside my bed
F Am F Am F
There was a monster in my head and memories
Am C F Am
All the places that I’ve been and all I’ve seen
F Am F
Well I am better now I wish you all could see
Am F Am
That a monster is no longer with me
C Em
There’s a monster in all our heads
C C G
It’s in our memories, under our beds in the places we don’t want to go
Am
And it stops us from who we should be
F C
And it clouds all the things we should see
G
And it hurts, love, but you already know
Am
It’s not easy to hide from the truth
F C
Yeah to slip back into the blue
G
And I know that you’re not okay
Am F C
But if you face it you might find you’ll make it to the other side of a brand new light
G
On a brand new day
F Am F Am
There was monster in my head and memories
F Am F Am
In all the places that I’ve been and all I’ve seen
F Am F Am
But I am better now I wish you all could see
F Am F Am
That monster is no longer with me
F Am C Am
Oh, that monster is no longer me
F E
C#m Am
And it’s good to feel free
