Capo 1st fret
[Intro]
G-Em-C-- (2x)
[Verse 1]
G Em
I was bitter but I'm fine now
C
I pull my head down from its dark cloud
G Em
It was easy enough but but
C
It was all too much
[Hook]
(slightly palm muted)
G Em
A hurricane lives in my bedroom
C
It keeps me up and awake for round two
G Em
And I just wanna sleep but
C
That's all too much
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em
It's like a bad day in new shoes
Bm C
A long weekend with curfews
D Em C
But now I feel like that's all old news
[Chorus]
N.C. G
I can't even count the times
Bm
I settled for these scribbled lines
Em D C
Tell me won't you stay awake, stay awake for me
G
I'm over all the stale days
Bm
Captured, I was stuck in place
Em D C
Tell me won't you stay awake, stay awake for me
E5 D5 G Em
I'm thinking off the page and I can't sleep
C G Em C
I'm thinking off the page and I can't sleep
[Verse 2]
G Em
I'm missing time when I thought I had it
C
From the hours I lost in traffic
G Em
I built these walls around me and
C
It's all too much
[Bridge]
(heavy palm muting, only play bass strings for first two lines)
G Em
My influx of emotion's got me feeling in slow motion
C
Like I’m saturated, cold and calm
G Em
And maybe like I’m all too much
C
Tell me is it all too much
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em
It's like a bad day in new shoes
Bm C
A long weekend with curfews
D Em C
But Now I feel like that's all old news
[Chorus]
N.C G
I can't even count the times
Bm
I settled for these scribbled lines
