♫ Verse :
G+G     D/F#D/F#      E minorEm  Cadd9Cadd9
  Sadness always finds An In
G+G       D/F#D/F#     E minorEm       Cadd9Cadd9
  Sneaks its way past and infecting everything
G+G      D/F#D/F#       E minorEm    Cadd9Cadd9
  And every chapter has an end
G+G       D/F#D/F#     E minorEm        Cadd9Cadd9
  But this is one momentous sequel don’t you think


Hook:
    E minorEm         D/F#D/F#
And the black birds, they fly
    G+G      Cadd9Cadd9
Like a frown on the skyline

♫ Chorus:
Cadd9Cadd9    G+G   D MajorD
   Right now I feel I’m
E minorEm   D/F#D/F#   Cadd9Cadd9
Running from the light
 G+G     D MajorD
Engulfed in darkness
E minorEm    D/F#D/F#  Cadd9Cadd9
Shielded from my eyes
  G+G      D MajorD    E minorEm     D/F#D/F#   Cadd9Cadd9
One foot in, one out I’m stuck on the borderline
   G+G    D MajorD
Which way will I


♫ Interlude:
Cadd9Cadd9



♫ Verse :
G+G         D/F#D/F#       E minorEm   Cadd9Cadd9
  Guess I should take this on the chin
G+G       D/F#D/F#     E minorEm     Cadd9Cadd9
  But I don't even know how all of this began
G+G       D/F#D/F#       E minorEm    Cadd9Cadd9
  And we are made to mould and bend
G+G      D/F#D/F#       E minorEm        Cadd9Cadd9
  How can I wish for nothing when it's still a sin

♫ Chorus:
Cadd9Cadd9    G+G   D MajorD
   Right now I feel I’m
E minorEm   D/F#D/F#   Cadd9Cadd9
Running from the light
 G+G     D MajorD
Engulfed in darkness
E minorEm    D/F#D/F#  Cadd9Cadd9
Shielded from my eyes
  G+G      D MajorD    E minorEm     D/F#D/F#   Cadd9Cadd9
One foot in, one out I’m stuck on the borderline
   G+G    D MajorD
Which way will I
Cadd9Cadd9   G+G   D MajorD
   Tears never arive
   E minorEm  D/F#D/F# Cadd9Cadd9
These ducts are dry
  G+G   D MajorD
We are so blind


♫ Bridge:
E minorEm     D/F#D/F#      G+G
  Waiting on the borderline
E minorEm     D/F#D/F#      G+G
  Waiting on the borderline
G+G      D/F#D/F#     E minorEm   Cadd9Cadd9
  So I will pour another drink
G+G       D/F#D/F#
  And try to drown the pain
    E minorEm       Cadd9Cadd9
  With salt along the rim
G+G        D/F#D/F#       E minorEm   Cadd9Cadd9
  And I’ll shut off the things I think
G+G         D/F#D/F#      E minorEm       Cadd9Cadd9
  'Cause nothing good will ever come from worrying


♫ Chorus:
Cadd9Cadd9    G+G   D MajorD
   Right now I feel I’m
E minorEm   D/F#D/F#   Cadd9Cadd9
Running from the light
 G+G     D MajorD
Engulfed in darkness
E minorEm    D/F#D/F#  Cadd9Cadd9
Shielded from my eyes
  G+G      D MajorD    E minorEm     D/F#D/F#   Cadd9Cadd9
One foot in, one out I’m stuck on the borderline
   G+G    D MajorD
Which way will I
Cadd9Cadd9   G+G   D MajorD
   Tears never arive
   E minorEm  D/F#D/F# Cadd9Cadd9
These ducts are dry
  G+G   D MajorD
We are so blind
