Intro
C A# Dm F G
[Verse 1]
C
It's always getting clearer
A#
It's coming through to me
Dm
Can you hear it in your ear
F G
When you are fast asleep?
C
They're always sending letters
A#
They wait for you at home
Dm
It's hard to drown it out
F G
This empty, endless drone
[Chorus]
C G
And it's crumbling down
F G
And it's rotting away
C G
And you're wanting to leave
F G
But you'll never escape
[Verse 2]
C
They call when you are sleeping
A#
They shake your hand downtown
Dm
Seems like everywhere you go
F G
They follow you around
C
You hear it when you're driving
A#
You see it on the wall
Dm
Everytime you read it there
F G
You feel nothing at all
[Chorus]
C G
And was it just a lie?
F G
And was this all a dream?
C G
Well, we always will wonder
F G
But never believe
[Bridge]
F G
When they come from every angle
C C/B Am
You can close your eyes
F
Turn your head
G
You don't have to reply
[Instrumental]
C A# Dm F G
[Verse 3]
C
Come look into the water
A#
Go stare into the sun
Dm
Don't let it haunt the thing
F G
That you will soon become
[Chorus]
C G
And it's crumbling down
F G
And it's rotting away
C G
And you're wanting to leave
F G
But you'll never escape
C G
And was it just a lie?
F G
And was this all a dream?
C G
Well, we always will wonder
F G C
But never believe it could be
