Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]

Em G/F# G Cmaj B7

Am Em B7 B7sus

Em G/F# G Cmaj B7

Am Em B7 B7sus

[Verse]

Em G/F#

Keep it up

G Cmaj

I might just doubt myself enough to stop

B7 A7

To try to swim the rivers to the top

Em B7

I'm still in the ocean caught in rips

B7sus B7

And nothing sticks

[Verse]

Em G/F#

On the fence

G Cmaj

Balanced like the words and how they're read

B7 A7

To seek the rope but only need the thread

Em B7 B7sus B7

The sky will all come falling like you said

[Break]

Em G/F# G Cmaj B7

Am Em B7 B7sus B7

[Verse]

Em G/F#

Silly me

G Cmaj

To think I could excite sufficiently

B7 A7

The keepers seem to have lost the only key

Em B7 B7sus

And the gate's been frozen twenty years or so

B7 Em

But if they don't say it, how we supposed to know?

G Cmaj

It's just a guessing game, a fix without a fix

B7 A7

And a hole that only depends with each miss

Em B7 B7sus

And a version of yourself that you can't see

B7 Em

And if you could, you'd probably curse it bitterly

[Break]

Em G/F# G Cmaj B7

Am Em B7 B7sus B7

[Verse]

G/F# G Cmaj

But these are not the words you want to hear

B7 A7

This ain't how they sing and find your ear

Em B7 B7sus

This ain't how I look or what I did

B7 Em

The signs were always there since I was a kid

G Cmaj

And I'm better off in silence so it seems

B7 A7

I can save myself and me for in my dreams

Em B7 B7sus

And be judged by the meaning of my means

B7 Em G/F#

And keep myself afloat in other scenes

G Cmaj B7 B7sus B7

Like the ones I see in my dreams

A7 Em B7 B7sus B7 Em

They're my dreams
