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