[Verse 1]
C*x8
C*x4
Free as a driving wheel
Dm7 C*x2
Circling around your iron will
C*x4
See only what you feel
Dm7 C*x2
Keeps you turning when you're standing still
[Hook]
G Dm7 F
You try to run from trouble when it comes
C /a-g
You follow the drum
F C*x4
Keeping time with everyone
[Verse 2]
C*x4
High as the light of day
Dm7 C*x2
Falling down across your lost highway
C*x4
Why does it hurt this way?
Dm7 C*x2
To come so far to find they've closed the gates
[Hook 2]
G Dm7 F
You've lost your tongue when you fall from the pendulum
C
Your heart is a drum
F C*x2
Keeping time with everyone
[Bridge]
G Dm7 F
Everyone, hear the drum from the undertow
G Dm7 F
I need to find someone to show me how to play it slow
C*x4
And just let it go
Eb6sus2 Dm7 C*x2
Eb6sus2 Dm7 C*x4
[Hook 3]
G Dm7 F
Your eyes get stung by the rays of the sinking sun
C
You follow the drum
F C*x2
Keeping time with everyone
[Outro]
Eb6sus2
Going beat, beat, beat
Dm7 C*x2
It's beating me down
Eb6sus2
Beat, beat, beat, beat
Dm7 C*x2
It's beating me down
Eb6sus2 Dm7 C*x2
Day after day it's turning around
Dm7 G
Till all my days are drowning out
C*
