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