Verse
A#m D#
Can you hear the birds cry
G# C#
At your own funeral?
A#m D#
They won't smile, they won't grin,
G# C#
They will just follow you
A#m D#
In your head, in your head
G# C#
No disturbance no more
A#m D#
In your head, in your head
G# C#
The choir has run out of young boys
[Chorus]
Fm C#
16 hours ago, you said
G# C#
Follow my lead while I play dead
Fm C#
16 days ago, in bed
G# C#
Making up promises in your head
G# C#
Please
Fm D#
Follow your head and not your heart
G# C#
Please
Fm D#
It has been wrong right from the start
[Bridge]
C# G#
And it takes a while, to watch the ship go down
C# G#
Yes, it takes a while to burn right to the ground
[Verse 2]
A#m D#
Can you hear yourself lie
G# C#
Or are you oblivious?
A#m D#
We are right here, right now
G# C#
But they have all flown away
A#m D#
In your head, in your head
G# C#
It's always someone, but not you
A#m D#
In your head, in your head
G# C#
The shouting stopped, now it's just you
[Chorus]
Fm C#
16 hours ago, you said
G# C#
Follow my lead while I play dead
Fm C#
16 days ago, in bed
G# C#
Making up promises in your head
G# C#
Please
Fm D#
Follow your head and not your heart
G# C#
Please
Fm D#
It has been wrong right from the start
[Outro]
C# G#
And it takes a while, to watch the ship go down
C# G#
Yes, it takes a while to burn right to the ground
C# G#
Just try your best to keep from getting drowned
C# G#
Yes, it takes a while, but someday you'll be found
