Intro:
G+G A minorAm D7D7 D7sus2 G+G
Verse 1:
G+G
I know I’ve seen your face somewhere
A minorAm
Selling something, some big idea
D7D7 D7sus2
I know I’ve seen that vacant stare
G+G
Selling sunsets for somebody else
G+G
You find yourself asking yourself
A minorAm
What is any of it worth?
D7D7 D7sus2
You find yourself looking up at night
G+G
From the bottom of the earth
Chorus 1:
A minorAm D MajorD G+G G/F# 
E minorEm
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
A minorAm D MajorD
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
B minorBm
They grow out their teeth
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
Did they need a little something more, than this?
Verse 2:
G+G
The taste of trouble on your lips
A minorAm
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your thoughts
D7D7 D7sus2
You tell yourself just to turn away
G+G
But you know you’ve already lost
G+G
The smell of rain when it’s on a wind
A minorAm
Can never be paid in full
D7D7 D7sus2
You try in vain to account for this mess
G+G
And everything that you stole
Chorus 2:
A minorAm D MajorD G+G G/F# E minorEm
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
A minorAm D MajorD
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
B minorBm
They grow out their teeth
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD
Did they need a little something more, than this?
Verse 3:
G+G
‘Cause now they’re bitin’ at your feet
A minorAm
They got you running from this place
D7D7 D7sus2
And now they’re breathing down your neck
G+G
Your eyes look lonely in your face
G+G
I see you looking just out of frame
A minorAm
What is it pulling you there?
D7D7 D7sus2
‘Cause things can never the stay the same
G+G
So what is keeping you here?
Chorus 3:
A minorAm D MajorD G+G G/F# E minorEm
And oh, can this world not afford to sleep anymore
A minorAm D MajorD
And oh, did your sheep start jumping
B minorBm
They grow out their teeth
E minorEm
And need a little something now
A minorAm D MajorD
Every time you think, well they’d be biting at your thoughts
B minorBm
And every time you blink
E minorEm
Well you’ll be so damn far
A minorAm D MajorD
But you want more, than this
