Aadd11/C# Gsus2
[Verse 1]
Bm7 Sometimes I think about who Aadd11/C#I should believe
The Gsus2people who are dead or the people who are free
Bm7 Sometimes I hear them as they Aadd11/C#whisper to me
I Gsus2try to stay awake so I won't die in my sleep
Bm7 And I was quick to take a Aadd11/C#second look through
The Gsus2window on the door of the operating room
And the adBm7renaline, it Aadd11/C#threw my eyes
To the Gsus2table on the floor where the patients lie
I Bm7saw his face I Aadd11/C#could not speak
As the Gsus2anesthetic kissed his cheek
I felt my Bm7lips go cold and my Aadd11/C#limbs go weak
Because the Gsus2body on the table where the patients die was Bm7me
Aadd11/C# Gsus2 It was me Bm7 Aadd11/C# Gsus2
[Chorus]
Bm7Give me back my Aadd11/C#oxygen mask Gsus2
Cause I don't want to Bm7feel the walls of Aadd11/C#my heart collapse Gsus2
So put me under
Bm7I would sooner Aadd11/C#die on this taGsus2ble
Than face what Bm7causes me to Aadd11/C#be so unstaGsus2ble
[Verse 2]
Bm7 There was a lie between my Aadd11/C#demons and me
And a Gsus2body made of paper in the passenger seat
As I Bm7open my eyes, I Aadd11/C#could not see
I felt the Gsus2stitches come loose and the blood run free
Bm7 And as my thoughts beganAadd11/C# to shake
I felt the Gsus2hand of the darkness kiss my face
And then the Bm7devil woke up and he Aadd11/C#grabbed my throat
He pulled me Gsus2down to the place where the silence grows
He Bm7looks at me with Aadd11/C#hollow eyes
And he Gsus2whispered my name as the flowers died
I felt my Bm7heart go cold as I Aadd11/C#sank between
The Gsus2ocean I am and the river I'm meant to Bm7be
Aadd11/C# Gsus2 I'm meant to Bm7be Aadd11/C# Gsus2
[Chorus]
Bm7Give me back my Aadd11/C#oxygen mask Gsus2
Cause I don't want to Bm7feel the walls of Aadd11/C#my heart collapse Gsus2
So put me under
Bm7I would sooner Aadd11/C#die on this taGsus2ble
Than face what Bm7causes me to Aadd11/C#be so unstaGsus2ble
[Interlude]
D Now I'm standing by the winBm7dow on a Sunday
And I Emcan't quite recall
Why I canGsus2not move at all A
D And I feel so tired and wounBm7ded
Like the stitches on my Emsoul came apart
I'm standing Gsus2here in the dark A
Well, Dmaybe it's from the drinks we had last night
Bm7 But good god, I love those friends of Emmine
The best that alcohol can Abuy
Or Dmaybe it's from the lack of sleep
But all those Bm7secrets I've kept, trying to be so sweet to Emyou
It's dark, my dear
But it got me through,Gsus2 it got me through A
[Chorus]
So Bm7give me back my Aadd11/C#oxygen mask Gsus2
Cause I don't want to Bm7feel the walls of Aadd11/C#my heart collapse Gsus2
So put me under
Bm7I would sooner Aadd11/C#die on this taGsus2ble
Than face what Bm7causes me to Aadd11/C#be so unstaGsus2ble
Bm7Cuses me to Aadd11/C#be so unstaGsus2ble
Bm7Cuses me to Aadd11/C#be so unstaGsus2ble
[Outro]
Bm7 Sometimes I wonder if I'm Aadd11/C#only a ghost
Wearing Gsus2human skin I never chose
I Bm7listen to the devil Aadd11/C#as he spoke
Because he Gsus2tempted me with a beautiful rose
