Verse 1:
D          A
  Sunlight   falls heavy
E                     F#m
  Can't hide, you're awake already
D            A
  Long night,  you're unsteady
E                      F#m
  You don't even wanna be here, do you?
D            A
  Cry out, not for the last time
E                  F#m                  D
  It's funny how a word might save your life
        A                    E
And I'm saying a lot right now

Chorus:
                  D                    A
But I don't wanna fight, I don't wanna cry
              E                    F#m      E       D
I don't wanna leave, I don't wanna be here, be here now
           A                E     Esus4 E
There's a bad taste in my mouth
                 D                   A
I stumble in the dark, tripping on a heart
                   E                  F#m      E       D
It's gonna leave a mark, maybe we can stay and wait it out
            A                   E
You're the one that talks me down
                            D   A   E
And even you can't help me now
               Esus4    D   A   E
Even you can't help me now


Verse 2:
D           A
  Headlight,  dark highway
E                  F#m
  Drive on, but it feels all sideways
D           A
  No signs,  I'm a headcase
E                  F#m                D
  I'm alone, but I feel you, feel you now
           A
Head down, I can't remember
E                 F#m
  If we left on a start or an ender
D         A                E     Esus4 E
  You and I, we're so worn down


Chorus:
                  D                    A
But I don't wanna fight, I don't wanna cry
              E                    F#m      E       D
I don't wanna leave, I don't wanna be here, be here now
        A                E     Esus4 E
Like a bad taste in my mouth
                 D                   A
I stumble in the dark, tripping on a heart
                   E                  F#m      E       D
It's gonna leave a mark, maybe we can stay and wait it out
            A                   E
You're the one that talks me down
                        F#m
Even you can't help me now


Bridge:
         E            A
And we fall, and we break
        D               F#m
And we turn our inside out
            E        A
And we're lost in a daze
              D                 F#m
For days and days and days and now
      E                    A           D
But I thought that I could turn it around


Chorus:
                  D                    A
But I don't wanna fight, I don't wanna cry
              E                        F#m      E       D
I don't wanna leave, but I don't wanna be here, be here now
           A                N.C.
There's a bad taste in my mouth
                 D                   A
I stumble in the dark, tripping on a heart
                   E                  F#m      E       D
It's gonna leave a mark, maybe we can stay and wait it out
            A                   E
You're the one that talks me down
                            D            A             E
And even you can't help me now (Sunlight   falls heavy)
                        D            A             E
Even you can't help me now (Sunlight   falls heavy)
                              D            A             E
Baby, even you can't help me now (Sunlight   falls heavy)
                        D   A   D
Even you can't help me now
