Capo on 4th fret

EmI remember you asleep in your room 
on a Em7makeshift bed and your clothes were thrown
EmAcross the floor and hanging on the door 
Was your Em7favourite dress
EmAnd I tossed and I turned and I get no rest
And I Em7remember something I thought I forgot
EmFeeling withdrawn and a little bit lost
In the Em7middle of the day when we woke up
We would Dsit and watch the weeds
Growing Cthrough the broken Gglass
While Dout on the street the cars go by so CfastAm7  
GIt goes Dso slow
That Fnothing here can Chold you downG  
Your Dsurrounds just bring you FdownC  
EmMy sense of touch
Em7Words could never mean that much
EmMy heart beats like a Em7cheap watch
DRunning fast and running slow
CSpeeding through the Gdark
DWhile out on the street the cars go by so CfastAm7  
GIt goes so Dslow
That Fnothing here can Chold you downG  
Your Dsurrounds just bring you FdownC  
GIt goes so Dslow
That Fnothing here can Chold you downG  
Your Dsurrounds just bring you Amdown
It goes so Dslow
Just to bring you Amdown
It goes so Dslow
Just to bring you Amdown
It goes so Dslow
Just to bring you Amdown
