🎸 Intro: 

Dmaj7 F#m Eadd9 x2:



🎸 Verse 1:
Dmaj7
Had a dream your father died
    F#m              Eadd9
I couldn't scream, I couldn't cry
    Dmaj7
The second night, I dreamt you drowned
      F#m              Eadd9
You couldn't fight, you were not found


🎸 Chorus: 
       Dmaj7
These violent delights

Keep creeping into my nights
              F#m
And they're reading my rites
         Eadd9
And I'll never sleep alone again
           Dmaj7
And these violent delights

Keep bleeding into the light
          F#m
And I'll never be right
            Eadd9
But they'll never sleep alone again
     Dmaj7
When I'm gone
     F#m    Eadd9
When I'm gone


🎸 Verse 2:
    Dmaj7
A photograph will steal your soul
     F#m        Eadd9
An epitaph won't make you whole
       Dmaj7
If I disappear, thеy'll say I killed myself
   F#m           Eadd9
I nevеr feared for my own health


🎸 Chorus: 
           Dmaj7
And these violent delights

Keep creeping into my nights
              F#m
And they're reading my rites
         Eadd9
And I'll never sleep alone again
           Dmaj7
And these violent delights

Keep bleeding into the light
          F#m
And I'll never be right
            Eadd9
But they'll never sleep alone again
     Dmaj7
When I'm gone
     F#m    Eadd9
When I'm gone


🎸 Bridge: 
N.C.
I don't want to see it
N.C.
I don't want to see it
N.C.
I don't want to sleep alone, no
N.C.
I don't want to see it
N.C.
I don't want to see it
N.C.
Never sleep alone again, no

Dmaj7
I don't want to see it

I don't want to see it
                           Eadd9
I don't want to sleep alone, no
F#m
I don't want to see it

I don't want to see it
Eadd9
Never sleep alone again when I'm gone


🎸 Chorus: 
           Dmaj7
And these violent delights

Keep creeping into my nights
              F#m
And they're reading my rites
         Eadd9
And I'll never sleep alone again
           Dmaj7
And these violent delights

Keep bleeding into the light
          F#m
And I'll never be right
            Eadd9
And they'll never sleep alone again
     Dmaj7
When I'm gone
     F#m    Eadd9
When I'm gone
                 Dmaj7
Alone again when I'm gone
     F#m    Eadd9
When I'm gone
