Verse 1:
               B
I think I went crazy
       C#m
Trying to stay sane
E                 A               B
Trying to keep my head out of the grave
        C#m                E               A
I never thought to expect more than manic bliss
          B
I think I lost it
             C#m             E
Stuck at the big end of the bottle
      A             B
Where all I mean to say
            C#m
It all goes down with the dregs
E                    A
Lost in the swirling haze

Verse 2:
               B
I think I went crazy
       C#m
Trying to remain
E                   A                       B
Trying to make some sense of the mess in my brain
        C#m                E                    A                B
Fingers crossed that this is the worst that my head is going to get


Pre-Chorus 1:
        C#m                  E
Of everything I thought I'd need

(of everything I thought I'd need)
         A               B
In this desperate waking dream

(in this desperate waking dream)
            C#m                E    A
Is standing right in front of me


Chorus 1:
C#m                               A
You're just standing there like heaven
          E                           B
While I'm still wearing the clothes I slept in
           F#
Telling myself just keep on breathing
      A                     C#m
Your spirit that I'm seeing
                            B
And it's burning bright and clear
                   A
Burning bright and clear


Verse 3:
           B              C#m
I've never felt a time
      E            A       B              C#m
Where everything I am felt less defined
               E               A              B
Just trying to find the safest place to land


Pre-Chorus 2:
          C#m                E
When everything I thought I need

(when everything I thought I'd need)
  A            B
A vision and a dream

(a vision and a dream)
            C#m                E
Is standing right in front of me
A
Right in front of me


Chorus 1:
C#m                               A
You're just standing there like heaven

While I'm still wearing the clothes I slept in
           F#
Telling myself just keep on breathing
      A                     C#m
Your spirit that I'm seeing
                            B
And it's burning bright and clear
                   A
Burning bright and clear


F# G# E x2

Bridge:
F#              G#   E
Relying on your easy glow
F#                     G#   E
To pull me up from the undertow
F#        G#      E
The faces that we show
F#              G#
So far from our own

C#m
You're just standing there like
A
You're just standing there like
E
You're just standing there like
B
You're just standing there like


Chorus 2:
C#m                               A
You're just standing there like heaven
          E                           B
While I'm still wearing the clothes I slept in
           F#
Telling myself just keep on breathing
      A                     C#m
Your spirit that I'm seeing
                            B
And it's burning bright and clear
                   A
Burning bright and clear
