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

Come look into the water
D
Go stare into the sun
F#m
Don't let it haunt the thing
A B
That you will soon become
[Chorus]
E B
And it's crumbling down
A B
And it's rotting away
E B
And you're wanting to leave
A B
But you'll never escape
E B
And was it just a lie?
A B
And was this all a dream?
E B
Well, we always will wonder
A B E
But never believe it could be
