Intro
G#m D#m (4x)
[Verse]
G#m D#m
6:45
G#m D#m G#m D#m G#m D#m
And the sun has cut the sky and the clouds are still bleeding
D#m G#m
As meanwhile I
G#mEm G#m D#m E
I drink alone outside the bar at the end of the world
EAm D#m
So this is how it feels
G#m D#m
10:25
G#m D#m G#m D#m G#m D#m
And there's a girl with cold eyes but her stockings are running
D#m G#m
And anyway
G#m D#m G#m D#m E
She's just the end of a melody that sings to me of you
EC
So this is how it feels
[Chorus]
B F#m
To stagger from the undergrowth
F#m E
And rediscover emptiness
E
Dancing on the beach
[Verse]
G#m D#m
About 2:05
G#m D#m G#m D#m G#m D#m
The band's on fire, it's a pyre and the bodies are burning
D#m G#m
I'm still alive
G#m D#m G#m D#m E
But as the papers have assured me, I won't be for long
EC
So this is how it feels
[Chorus]
B F#m
So this is how it feels
F#mF
To walk upon the waves alone
EC
With nothing to conceal
B F#m
So this is how it feels
F#m E
To crawl out from the accident
E
And die beneath your wheels
[Verse]
G#m D#m
Nearly 4 am
G#m D#m G#m D#m G#m D#m
I'm just a ripple in the tide and the tide is receding
D#m G#m
I really can't pretend
G#mEm G#m D#m E
That the end feels like anything more than a joke
EC
So this is how it feels
[Chorus]
B F#m
So this is how it feels
F#m E
To throw your past onto the floor
E B
And smash it beneath your heels
B F#m
So this is how it feels
F#m E
To catch your face in a broken glass
E
And know that that's what's real
[Outro]
G#m D#m
6:45
G#m D#m G#m D#m G#m D#m
And the sun has cut the sky and the clouds are still bleeding
