Chords with lyrics

What is wrong with her eyes?
DmDm                FF
A augmentedA glossy stare that won't leave me be starts my blood running cold.
Bb majorBb
A augmentedA gaze that could make hell freeze over...
     DmDm        A augmentedA
I have to understand she's gone...
      DmDm
But she's not!
                FF
Don't you tell me that she is dead!
              Bb majorBb
Watch her lips softly move because she's still whispering to me!
         DmDm         FF   A augmentedA   Bb majorBb
...And something here is not quite right...

DmDm   FF             Bb majorBb                C majorC
Skin so cold beneath my touch as I brush back her hair and close her eyes.
  DmDm    FF
But I cannot stand to turn away.
    Bb majorBb
When I do, she'll be gone...
   C majorC
It's frightening...

Bb majorBb        Bb majorBb          A augmentedA
Sweaty hands will fail to lock the door...
    A augmentedA
They'll be here soon.
 D MajorD      E MajorE    FF     G+G
I wish I could keep my teeth from grinding.
 D MajorD    E MajorE    FF    G+G
I wish I'd stop looking behind me.
Bb majorBb        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA
Running now will only make it worse...
    A augmentedA
They'll be here soon.
 D MajorD       E MajorE     FF   G+G
I wish I could shake the awful feeling.
 FF    G+G      A/EA/E
I wish my mind would stop...

Bb majorBb           C majorC
Maybe I am crazy and my mind is trying to deceive me.
DmDm
As the ground vanishes I wonder will the sky be the next to fail me?
Bb majorBb
Paint abandons canvas.
    C majorC                     DmDm
And my brush can't seem to start again from scratch.
                                   Bb majorBb
As I watch everything unravel, why should I even try to stop the collapse?
I won't...

DmDm      FF
Shaking as I rest her body down.
    Bb majorBb
No one knows, only me...
   C majorC
It's frightening...

Bb majorBb        Bb majorBb          A augmentedA
Sweaty hands will fail to lock the door...
    A augmentedA
They'll be here soon.
 D MajorD      E MajorE    FF     G+G
I wish I could keep my teeth from grinding.
 D MajorD    E MajorE    FF    G+G
I wish I'd stop looking behind me.
Bb majorBb        Bb majorBb      A augmentedA
Running now will only make it worse...
    A augmentedA
They'll be here soon.
 D MajorD       E MajorE     FF   G+G
I wish I could shake the awful feeling.
 FF    G+G      A/EA/E
I wish my mind would stop...

Bb majorBb           C majorC
Maybe I am crazy and my mind is trying to deceive me.
DmDm
As the ground vanishes I wonder will the sky be the next to fail me?

                                   Bb majorBb
As I watch everything unravel, why should I even try to stop the collapse?

D MajorD   E MajorE   FF   G+G   D MajorD   E MajorE   FF   G+G
There's a madman glaring straight at me!
D MajorD   E MajorE   FF   G+G   D MajorD   E MajorE   FF   G+G   2x D MajorD E MajorE FF G+G
Oh I know I've seen his face before...
D MajorD   E MajorE   FF   G+G   FF  G+G  A/EA/E
I am sure I've seen his face before...

Bb majorBb           C majorC
Maybe I am crazy and my mind is trying to deceive me.
DmDm
As the ground vanishes I wonder will the sky be the next to fail me?

And my brush can't seem to start again from scratch.
                                   Bb majorBb
As I watch everything unravel, why should I even try to stop the collapse?
