Intro
G F Am C D
[Verse 1]
G
It's always getting clearer
F
It's coming through to me
Am
Can you hear it in your ear
C D
When you are fast asleep?
G
They're always sending letters
F
They wait for you at home
Am
It's hard to drown it out
C D
This empty, endless drone
[Chorus]
G D
And it's crumbling down
C D
And it's rotting away
G D
And you're wanting to leave
C D
But you'll never escape
[Verse 2]
G
They call when you are sleeping
F
They shake your hand downtown
Am
Seems like everywhere you go
C D
They follow you around
G
You hear it when you're driving
F
You see it on the wall
Am
Everytime you read it there
C D
You feel nothing at all
[Chorus]
G D
And was it just a lie?
C D
And was this all a dream?
G D
Well, we always will wonder
C D
But never believe
[Bridge]
C D
When they come from every angle
G G/F# Em
You can close your eyes
C
Turn your head
D
You don't have to reply
[Instrumental]

C D
That you will soon become
[Chorus]

And it's crumbling down
C D
And it's rotting away
G D
And you're wanting to leave
C D
But you'll never escape
G D
And was it just a lie?
C D
And was this all a dream?
G D
Well, we always will wonder
C D G
But never believe it could be
