Verse 1: Loyle Carner:
D
Yo, I been listening to Dreamy Days, I'm in disarray
A
I realise it's everybody else who's still astray
Bm
I feel ashamed, I know there ain't no savin' away
C#m
They went astray, I went Australia
F#m
So what I'm supposed to say to 'em?
D
Uh, when all this love's out of range
      A
Everything around me changed, I'm supposed to stay the same
Bm
Turn down these free drinks I couldn't even name
    C#m                               Bm
And I like all this money, 'cause I'm fuckin' up my brain
       D
I been goin' insane, shelf full of family remains
 A
Brokenhearted is seein' none of them again
   Bm
I, I pour the glass, stick my head out in the rain
         C#m
Try and find another person I can blame
              F#m
Sat upon this plane, uh
D
And yo, I'm prayin' that we don't crash
A
'Cause every night, I shiver at the sight when we go back
 Bm
'Cause every night could be my last, and yeah, I know that

So I crack a smile 'fore it goes black, trust

Verse 2: Loyle Carne:
       D
Trust, uh, I wish you'd been there when my dad had died
    A
Uh, I wish you'd been there when my mother cried
Bm
I, I wish you'd been there in the drag of night
   C#m                                         F#m
To see my side, look me in my eyes when I was paralysed
    D
And tell me everything's alright and push it to the side
A
It's just a sacrifice, at times, I told a bag of lies
Bm
But not a pack of lies, we always told a couple ones
   C#m                                            F#m
Of course it was true, you only knew me from the dramatise
  D
I feel an agonising risk, 'cause in a thousand islands
     A
This is where I really wanna be when we were cracking wise
  Bm
'Cause it was black and white, literally black and white
 C#m                                        F#m
White from my mother and my father was the blackest skies
D
Skies, I, I can see it's true
A
I, I see my mother up in you
Bm
Shit, I think my dad'd see it too
F#m
Yo, I just wish he knew, uh

Verse 3: Loyle Carne:
D
Uh, imagine all the friends you see most
                      A
Each one you peggin' away

Is dependin' on you puttin' pen to the page, uh
Bm7
And so, you break it down, checking they're paid
                    A
Another day you're heartbreakin', you resented the stage
         D
You feel that same rage
                                            A
Watch the crowd, watch the stage thinkin', "Shit"

Rather in the crowd with your mates drinkin'
Bm
Misbehaviours, catch another dame winkin'
     A
You feel ashamed, guzzle Jagers, your brain's sinkin'
    D
You think it's deep, don't think it's depression
A
A misspent adolescence
                   Bm
But all this time, all this time, time's of the essence
C#m
You would never learn from your lessons
                      D
You're stuck in that same quintessence

Heartbreak, one in the same
A
Days change, but you're stuck in the game
           Bm
It's like, she's tellin' you you're young enough to be at uni
C#m                               F#m D
Somehow, the one who sees through me
