Title : Nightmares

Artist: Secondhand Serenade

Tuning: Standard

F C Dm Bb C

Intro: ----

Look away, pray for salvation

And pray for a sweet conversation

The problems not with you

It's without you

I love the way that you told me I'm better

The way you described me in letters

There's nothing I can do

Is there nothing I can do

Chorus:

F C

I'll scream just to get your attention

Dm Bb C

I have seen what happens to a lonely heart

F C

And I'll scream just to get your attention

Dm Bb C

I have seen the nightmares that tore us apart

Dm Bb

So long, wish that you'd tell me your wrong

That were not dead and buried

And save your harsh goodbyes

Your salty liquid eyes

Dm Bb

And this song, is just another song

Don't know why I bother

I can't tell truth from lies

Chorus:

F C

I'll scream just to get your attention

Your fires burning bright

It's burning me alive

No one can save me now

Your touch was all I had

It's eating me alive

No one can save me now

F C

I'll scream just to get your attention

Dm Bb C

I have seen what happens to a lonely heart

F C

And I'll scream just to get your attention

Dm Bb C

I have seen the nightmares that tore us apart

Your touch was all I had
