Chords with lyrics
♫ Verse 1: F C F I pull my eyes like slot machines C Dm I do but I never fall asleep Am Dm C These sheep I count don't show up anymore, oh F C F And a stray cat cries, and wakes the stars C Dm The constellations fray the dark Am Dm C I toss and turn my demons 'til they're awed, oh ♫ Refrain: Gm F 'Cause I'm restless for the future Gm F And I'm battered by the past Gm Dm Bb I'm paralyzed, nocturnal, never crash
♫ Chorus: Dm Bb F C 'Cause I'm lying in my room Dm Bb F C Wishing night birds would come through Dm Bb F C And my wings are in my chest Dm Bb F C Packs of lonely cigarettes Dm Bb Keep waiting for a match to light my soul F C I'm lying in my bed 'til blood runs cold Dm Bb F C But these night birds move too slow ♫ Verse 2: F C F The clock is wrong, I still believe C Dm Someday they'll find my batteries Am Dm C I think I lost them somewhere deep in hell, yeah F C F Some say Neil Armstrong jumped the moon C Dm 'Cause it never shines a perfect hue Am Dm C I wonder if it's fading like myself, yeah
♫ Refrain: Gm F 'Cause I'm hopeful for a new day Gm F But I'm shattered like a glass Gm Dm Bb I'm paralyzed, nocturnal, never crash ♫ Chorus: Dm Bb F C 'Cause I'm lying in my room Dm Bb F C Wishing night birds would come through Dm Bb F C And my wings are in my chest Dm Bb F C Packs of lonely cigarettes Dm Bb Keep waiting for a match to light my soul F C I'm lying in my bed 'til blood runs cold Dm Bb F C But these night birds move too slow ♫ Bridge: Gm Bb Dm C x2 ♫ Chorus: Dm Bb F C 'Cause I'm lying in my room Dm Bb F C Wishing night birds would come through Dm Bb F C And my wings are in my chest Dm Bb F C Packs of lonely cigarettes Dm Bb Keep waiting for a match to light my soul F C I'm lying in my bed 'til blood runs cold Dm Bb F C But these night birds move too slow
