Verse:
C                                     Am
Count the hours it takes the light to creep across the wall
C                                   Am
Waste the morning face down in your bed

Pre-Chorus:
E            F
Silence condensing
      C             F
Like smoke in empty rooms
            C        G
But there's too much noise
          F
Inside my head

Chorus:
      C
I get anxious on my own
            C7
And it gets worse when I'm alone
          F
Won't you take me somewhere else
        G#                           C
Where I cannot hurt myself, anywhere
    E7        F  Fm
I'd go anywhere, oh oh

Interlude:
C                    Am

Verse:
C                                 Am
Count the pieces resting in their plastic little tombs
C                             Am
Say a prayer that nobody will hear

Pre-chorus:
E           F
After that, it's easiest to
C               F
Send your mind away
         C          G
From the dissonance of
             F
Your daddy's tears
     C            G                F
I am far away and I am still right here

Chorus:
       C
I get heartsick on my own
               C7
And it gets worse when I'm alone
        F
Someone take me somewhere else
        G#                           C
Where I cannot hurt myself, anywhere
    E7        F  Fm
I'd go anywhere, oh oh
   C          E7
We ran out of time
    F           G#
You left with a sigh
      C      E7
Before I knew
   F       Fm
To miss you oh oh

Bridge:
N.C        C
I can't do this on my own
          C7
Why'd you leave me all alone
        F
I need something to believe
      G#*
Not a promise on a screen

Chorus:
N.C.    C
Anywhere,
       E7       F   G#
You're not anywhere oh
  C
Anywhere,
       C7       F   G#
You're not anywhere oh

Outro:
