Damocles chords by Sleep Token

Verse 1

PAUSE
(fade in)
 Emaj7                              Amaj7sus2
Well, I've been waking up under blades, blue blossom days
 Emaj7                       Amaj7sus2
If only Damocles would hit me back
 Emaj7                    Amaj7sus2
No alabaster carvings or faces on a farthing
 Emaj7                                   Amaj7sus2
Would prevent my head from fading to black


Pre-Chorus

 Emaj7           Amaj7sus2
And it feels like falling into the sea
 Emaj7                  Amaj7sus2
From outer space in seconds to me
 G#m7                  Amaj7sus2
And I play discordant days on repeat
 B                 Amaj7sus2
Until they look like harmony


Chorus

 Amaj7sus2
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called
 B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?
C#m7
Come up for air and choke on it all
 E
No one else knows that I've got a problem
Amaj7sus2
What if I can't get up and stand tall?
 E
What if the diamond days are all gone
 B
And who will I be when the empire falls?
 Emaj7Amaj7sus2
Wake up alone and I'll be forgotten.

Verse 2

 Emaj7                               Amaj7sus2
Well, I know I should be touring, I know these chords are boring
 Emaj7                           Amaj7sus2
But I can't always be killing the game
 Emaj7                        Amaj7sus2                             Emaj7                      Amaj7sus2
No golden grand pianos or voices from the shadows will Do anythin' but feel the same



Pre-Chorus

 Emaj7           Amaj7sus2
And it feels like falling into the deep
 Emaj7                 Amaj7sus2
From somewhere way up over the peaks
 G#m7              Amaj7sus2
And I play discordant days on repeat
 G#m7              Amaj7sus2
Until the tape runs out on me


Chorus

 Amaj7sus2
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called
B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?
 C#m7
Come up for air and choke on it all
No one else knows that I've got a problem
Amaj7sus2
What if I can't get up and stand tall?
 E
What if the diamond days are all gone
 B
And who will I be when the empire falls?
Wake up alone and I'll be forgotten


Bridge

 F#m7    C#m7              E                 B
And nobody  told me I'd be begging for relief
 Amaj7sus2 B                        F#m7
When what is silent to   you feels like it's screaming to me
 F#m7   C#m7             E            B
Well, nobody  told me I'd get tired of myself
 Amaj7sus2       B                  F#m7
When it all looks like heaven, but it feels like hell


Chorus

 Amaj7sus2
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called
 B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?
 C#m7
Come up for air and choke on it all
No one else knows that I've got a problem
 Amaj7sus2
What if I can't get up and stand tall?
 E
What if the diamond days are all gone
 B
And who will I be when the empire falls?
 E   Amaj7sus2
Wake up alone and I'll be forgotten
