Capo on 4th Fret Please rate and leave a comment


  E minorEm
I awoke
  G+G
Only to find my lungs empty
  E minorEm
And through the night
   G+G
So it seems I'm not breathing
   G+G
And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be
   G+G
And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down

   E minorEm
And I'm afraid
   G+G
To sleep because of what haunts me
   E minorEm
Such as living with the uncertainty
    G+G
That I'll never find the words to say
 G+G
Which would completely explain
 G+G
Just how I'm breaking down


[Chorus]
  C majorC
Someone come and, someone come and save my life
  C majorC
Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead
  C majorC
But now it's like the night is taking sides
  C majorC
With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
 C majorC
Could it be this misery will suffice?


[Gordon Downie]
   E minorEm
I've become
     G+G
A augmentedA simple souvenir of someone's kill
    E minorEm
And like the sea
    G+G
I'm constantly changing from calm to ill
   G+G
Madness fills my heart and soul as if the great divide could swallow me whole
  E minorEm
oh, how I'm breaking down


[Chorus]

oooohhh my life
  C majorC
Someone come and, someone come and save my life (save my life)
  C majorC
Someone come and, someone come and save my life (save my life)
  C majorC
Someone come and, someone come and save my life
   C majorC
