Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Am--G/B-C--Dm--Am--G/B-C--F (x2)

Verse 1

 I wake up at the end of a long dark lonely year

 it's bringing out the worst in me

 I hear your voice start breaking in fear

 when the lights go down

 and I still feel you looking over my shoulder

 your sinking guilt and approaching nightmare

and I know none of us will survive

cause I know everything

Interlude

Am--G/B-C--Dm--Am--G/B-C--F

Verse 2

 and my dear I need you to move a little faster

 the second cast is the rest of your life

your final word and an itchy finger

 then it's taken away

 and we'll be beaten down without mercy or meaning

 I turn my face to a careless skyline

I'm searching hard for a sign from heaven

 but they've forgotten me here

Chorus

You can just stop talking I get it

(I hear your silence loud and clear)

I know its barely a thought, but it'll see us through

I'm only saying please to just let it happen

(let it happen and we'll make it through)

yeah you can just stop talking I get it

Interlude

Am--G/B-C--Dm--Am--G/B-C--F

Verse 2

Sex, fuck and flourescent lighting

 a hollow point on an angry bullet

we're on the teeth of a crocodile

 we're in the mouth of a gun

 and sometimes at night I feel I'm just a broken vessel

 an instrument with a darker purpose

I'm at the throat of the young and the helpless

 cause they've got nothing to say

(Repeat Chorus)
