🎸 Verse 1:
C#m7C#m7         F#7F#7
What makes you see today this way?
C#m7C#m7               BMaj7Bmaj7
What are you left with when it's stripped away?
C#m7C#m7           F#7F#7        EMaj7Emaj7
If you can stand another second of me then wait
C#m7C#m7         F#7F#7
I'll tell you why you need to change
C#m7C#m7            BMaj7Bmaj7
And I'll promise that I'll be the same
EMaj7Emaj7          D#m7D#m7      G#m7G#m7   D#sus4D#sus4 D#7D#7
Since we've got nowhere else to go but straight ahead

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
EMaj7Emaj7           D#m7D#m7         D#7D#7
Look at the pillow can you see a mark that small
  G#m7G#m7     C#7C#7
Or any sign that you've been here at all?

🎸 Chorus:
F#9F#9              BMaj7Bmaj7    Fm7b5Fm7b5
Smothering daydreams with the back of our hands
E9E9         D#7D#7    Dm7b5Dm7b5
Wondering what our future demands

🎸 Verse 2:
C#m7C#m7            F#7F#7
You need to back it up and listen to me
C#m7C#m7          BMaj7Bmaj7
There's no shortcut unbelievably
C#m7C#m7     F#7F#7        EMaj7Emaj7
I'm so tired too but at least I sleep
C#m7C#m7           F#7F#7
This doesn't get another episode
C#m7C#m7             BMaj7Bmaj7
I've changed my number with a secret code
EMaj7Emaj7           D#m7D#m7      G#m7G#m7 D#sus4D#sus4 D#7D#7
If we weren't so high I'd toss you out to weep away

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
EMaj7Emaj7          D#m7D#m7         D#7D#7
Guess you still owe me a chance to let me say
   G#m7G#m7           C#7C#7
This wasn't a heartbreak nor a welcome overstayed

🎸 Chorus:
F#9F#9              BMaj7Bmaj7    Fm7b5Fm7b5
Smothering daydreams to ease out our minds
  E9E9           D#7D#7     Dm7b5Dm7b5
And soften the impact when vengeance collides

🎸 Verse 3:
C#m7C#m7               F#7F#7
What is this that you've brought me into?
C#m7C#m7         BMaj7Bmaj7
Looking at the state of the two of you
C#m7C#m7         F#7F#7           EMaj7Emaj7
Sometimes there's no helping the dead and the damned
C#m7C#m7            F#7F#7
You need to get before you lose another one
C#m7C#m7        BMaj7Bmaj7    EMaj7Emaj7
I wouldn't want my life to be undone
          D#m7D#m7       G#m7G#m7  D#7D#7
I'd almost call it genius if it were planned ahead

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
EMaj7Emaj7            D#m7D#m7
Look out the window can you see a single soul
D#7D#7   G#m7G#m7     C#7C#7
That can help us as we try and take control

🎸 Chorus:
F#9F#9              BMaj7Bmaj7    Fm7b5Fm7b5
Smothering daydreams from our inside our heads
E9E9        D#7D#7      Dm7b5Dm7b5
Trying not to be alone when it ends
