Intro:
N.C.
I’m gonna have a nightmare tonight
N.C.
I’m gonna be my nightmare tonight
Verse 1:
G# minorG#m BB
You’re pretty picky, you’re a clique of one
G# minorG#m BB E MajorE
I’m right though, surely I’m not the only gun you’ve got loaded?
F#F# E MajorE C#C#
How do you keep from gloating?
G# minorG#m BB
You’re pretty tricky, did you pick that shade
G# minorG#m BB E MajorE
just to distract from the flash of the shining blade you’ve got hidden?
F#F# E MajorE C#C#
Deep wounds overwritten
Pre-Chorus:
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
I had so many new friends to see
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
so many possibilities
G# minorG#m F# minorF#m C# minorC#m
now I couldn’t possibly feel worse
G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E MajorE
I had so many fires left to nurse
Chorus:
G# minorG#m F#F#
In my nightmare tonight I’ll see giant leviathans
C#C# E MajorE
breaking the water in half with their shining skin
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE C# minorC#m
riding them laughing you’ll be in my nightmare tonight
G# minorG#m F#F#
In my nightmare tonight I’ll see beasts all stampeding
C#C# E MajorE
your signia burned onto haunches still healing
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
and leading the pack on their backs in my nightmare tonight
F#F# G# minorG#m C# minorC#m G# minorG#m C# minorC#m
You’ll be in my nightmare tonight, tonight…
Verse 2:
G# minorG#m BB
You’re pretty ugly when you get down to it,
G# minorG#m BB E MajorE
combined, I’ve half a mind to just say screw it and break completely,
F#F# E MajorE C#C#
or surrender so sweetly
G# minorG#m BB
I thought I’d have a chance to be my own,
G# minorG#m BB E MajorE
free from the tyranny of your tarnished throne.
F#F# E MajorE C#C#
Now I see that kingdom belongs to me, oh no…
Pre-Chorus:
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
I had so many irons in the fire
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
so many brands and swords
G# minorG#m F# minorF#m C# minorC#m
To their backsides I had even more
G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E MajorE
So many plans on what they’re for
Chorus:
G# minorG#m F#F#
In my nightmare tonight, there’s volcanoes erupting
C#C# E MajorE
A augmentedA red hot web veining the land, it’s disgusting
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
cracked mountains of madness, your hand in my nightmare tonight
G# minorG#m F#F#
In my nightmare tonight I’ll see me all consumed,
C#C# E MajorE
and attempting to sing disharmonious tunes with you.
G# minorG#m F#F# C#C#
Asynchronicity, I am in misery. I am in misery!
E MajorE
What has been done to me?
Outro:
G# minorG#m E MajorE
In my nightmare tonight
G# minorG#m E MajorE
In my nightmare tonight
G# minorG#m E MajorE
In my nightmare tonight
G# minorG#m E MajorE
In my nightmare tonight
G# minorG#m F#F#
In my nightmare tonight I’ll see giant leviathans
C#C# E MajorE
breaking the water in half with their shining skin
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
riding them laughing you’ll be in my nightmare tonight
C#C# G# minorG#m
you’ll be in my nightmare tonight
