Capo on 4th Fret Please rate and leave a comment


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

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



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



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



[Chorus]

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