Intro : Riff ...

Wake up now little sleepyhead

F G G

From your nightmarish day the dead trip

You'd be better off not to know

F G Asus4/F

Of the wild seeds you let go From your thorny fingertips

Riff

Try to clean bloodstained hands

That ran away and left the scene

G G

Of a crime last night

Always thought you stood on the other side

Never thought the roof would cave in

G G

Where you were hiding

Dm F C

There's a wave of fear that creeps right in

Dm F C

A vacant stare that can't say where it's been

Or what's been laced

F F

The trail leads all over the place

C E

There's an angel at your side

Am F

Who rescued you in a nick of time

Esus4 E

Explains how you almost fell

F Esus4 E

And vanished into a fatal spell

Fsus4 Esus4 E

She looks into your eyes and sees There's something still missing

Riff

Dm F C

She notices a chunk bleeding from your chest

Dm F C E

Tries to stop the bloodflow with her best compress

F F

But the wreckage is in a mess

C E

There's an emotional tax,

Am f

figured in after the fact

Esus4 E

And stories unfold

F Esus4 E

The world grows dark and bones get cold

Fsus4 Esus4 E

You look into your heart and you know something still missing

Riff

Am E Am E

something still missing

Am E Am E

still missing
