Chords with lyrics

D MajorD        F# minorF#m
Did you expect it all to stop
    G+G      A augmentedA
at the wave of your hand?
     D MajorD       F# minorF#m
Like the suns just gonna drop
     G+G     A augmentedA
if it's night you demand.
    D MajorD          F# minorF#m
Well, in the dark were just air
   G+G         A augmentedA
so the house might dissolve.
      D MajorD         F# minorF#m
once were gone, whos is gonna care
      G+G     A augmentedA
if we were ever here at all?
G+G
Well, summers gonna come
       A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
it's gonna cloud our eyes again.

no need to focus
      G+G         A augmentedA
when theres nothing thats worth seeing.
    D MajorD          F# minorF#m
So we trade liquor for blood
   G+G         A augmentedA
in an attempt to tip the scales.
      D MajorD        F# minorF#m
I think you lost what you loved
     G+G     A augmentedA
in that mess of details.
        D MajorD
They seemed so important at the time
      G+G
but now you can't even recall
   D MajorD
any names, faces, or lines.
     G+G        D2(5577)
Its more the feeling of it all.
G+G
Well, winter is going to end and
     A augmentedA          F# minorF#m
I'm gonna clean these veins again.
             G+G
So close to dying that I finally can
    A augmentedA
start living.
