On the guitar, you can play the classic chords: 
 
Am 
Close those eyes down, 
D 
We all fall down, 
Am 
Into the space, 
D 
Gone with no trace, 
Am 
Feel your heart slow, 
D 
Where will we go, 
Am 
Into the sunlight, 
D 
Or the dead of night.

There?s nobody here for me now,

There?s nobody here for me now.

So much running scared,

Living breathing dead.

There?s nobody here for me now. 
 
 
 
Verse (3:28) 
 
Am 
Silence fills you through, 
D 
Time to tell the truth, 
Am 
See the words on signs, 
D 
It ends with a blink of an eye.
