♫ Verse:
G+G              C7C7
 The sand that I lay my head on to rest
A minorAm              C majorC
 Is falling through the neck of an hour glass
G+G              C7C7
 I need a little help to get on my way
A minorAm              C majorC
 Every time I'm stuck I can hear you say

Pre ♫ Chorus:
G+G            C7C7
 Forget medicine, just look what your head is in
A7A7           C majorC
 Wake up alive, go to sleep and then you're dead again
G+G            G#dim/D
 It's a far cry from feeling alive
C7C7
 But keep that feeling alive

 And keep that feeling inside

 Can someone come and dumb it down for me?
G+G           D MajorD
 How someone can be so complete

 Dumb it down, dumb it down

♫ Verse:
G+G              C7C7
 The kid with his head stuck in between
A minorAm              C majorC
 The rails of the staircase might have been me
G+G              C7C7
 But I'm older now and I can clearly see
A minorAm              C majorC
 Not a cell in my body ever meant to be free

 But keep that feeling alive

 And keep that feeling inside

♫ Verse:
G+G              C7C7
 Never graduated from the chill out tent
A minorAm              C majorC
 Pocket full of nothing, couldn't pay the rent
G+G              C7C7
 Gonna wake up early and dust off my soul
A minorAm              C majorC
 And find a good reason to crawl out of this hole

Pre ♫ Chorus:
