Tried to get the timing right for the strums. Song starts off quiet so strum quietly in 
the beginning and where it says to increase strum volume, just strum louder, not faster.

 Tuning: Half step down
[Verse]
 (Quiet Strums)
Rows of Emhouses, sound Casleep.
Only Gstreet lights notice Dme.
I am Emdesperate, if nothing Celse,
In a holding Gpattern to find mDyself.
I talk in Emcircles, I talk in Ccircles,
I watch for Gsignals, for a Dclue.
How to feel Emdifferent; how to feel Cnew.
Like science Gfiction bending Dtruth.
 (Increase strum volume)
No Emone can unring this Cbell,
Unsound this Galarm, unbreak my heart Dnew.
God Emknows, I am dissoCnance
Waiting to Gbe swiftly pulled into Dtune.
[Chorus]
I’ll go aEmnywhere you want,
Anywhere you want,
GAnywhere you want me. x3
I'll go Emanywhere you want
Anywhere you want Dme
[Verse]
I Emknow the further I Cgo,
The harder I Gtry, only keeps my eyes Dclosed.
And somEmehow I’ve fallen in Clove
With this middle Gground at the cost of my Dsoul.
Yet I Emknow, if I stepped Caside,
Released the Gcontrols, you would open my Deyes.
That somEmehow, all of this Cmess
Is just my Gattempt to know the worth of my Dlife…
...made of precious Emmetals,
Precious Cmetals,
Precious Gmetals inDside
precious Emmetals,
Precious Cmetals,
Precious Gmetals inDside
 (Quiet Strum)
Precious Emmetals
Precious Gmetals x2
[Chorus]
I’ll go Emanywhere you want,
Anywhere you want,
GAnywhere you want me
I'll go Emanywhere you want,
Anywhere you want Dme

[Verse]

(Quiet Strums)

Em C

Rows of houses, sound asleep.

G D

Only street lights notice me.

I am desperate, if nothing else,

In a holding pattern to find myself.

How to feel different; how to feel new.

Like science fiction bending truth.

God knows, I am dissonance

Em C

I know the further I go,

G D

The harder I try, only keeps my eyes closed.

And somehow I’ve fallen in love

With this middle ground at the cost of my soul.

Yet I know, if I stepped aside,

G D

Released the controls, you would open my eyes.

Em C

That somehow, all of this mess

G D

Is just my attempt to know the worth of my life…

...made of precious metals,

Precious metals,

Precious metals inside
