Intro: Am C G (2x) 
 
Am                      C 
My secrets are burning a hole through my heart 
       G 
And my bones catch a fever 
Am 
When it cuts you up this deep 
C                       G 
It's hard to find a way to breathe 
Am 
Your eyes are swallowing me 
C 
Mirrors start to whisper 
G 
Shadows start to see 
Am                     C 
My skin's smothering me 
G                        D 
Help me find a way to breathe 
 
Am 
Time stood still 
    Em               G 
The way it did before 
C             Am          G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking 
Am        Em      G 
Fell into another hole again 
C             Am          G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking 
 
Am 
I'm at the edge of the world 
C 
Where do I go from here? 
G 
Do I disappear? 
Am 
Edge of the world 
C 
Should I sink or swim? 
G 
Or simply disappear? 
 
Am 
Your eyes are swallowing me 
C 
Mirrors start to whisper 
G 
Shadows start to see 
Am 
My skin's smothering me 
Em                    G 
Help me find a way to breathe 
 
Am 
Time stood still 
    Em               G 
The way it did before 
C             Am          G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking 
Am        Em      G 
Fell into another hole again 
C             Am          G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking 
 
Am       C 
Wake up! Take my hand and 
Em                 G 
Give me a reason to start again 
Am       C 
Wake up! Pull me out and 
Em                 G 
Give me a reason to start again 
 
 Am, C, G (4x)
 
 
(one pick strokes on this part) 
Am 
Your eyes are swallowing me 
C 
Mirrors start to whisper 
G 
Shadows start to see 
Am 
My skin's smothering me 
Em                    G 
Help me find a way to breathe 
 
 
Am 
Time stood still 
    Em               G 
The way it did before 
C             Am          G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking 
Am        Em      G 
Fell into another hole again 
C             Am          G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking  (4x)
 
Am              Em 
Time stood still 
              G 
The way it did before 
C            Am            G 
It's like I'm sleepwalking
