Am G
Am G
Am G

[Verse]

Am
I wanted to save you give breath that escaped you
G
But you stayed down (stayed down)
Am
To resuscitate you breath my breath back into you
G
You stayed out (stayed out)

[Interlude]

Am
I wanted to shake you to scream to awaken you

You stayed down (stayed out)

In your slumber you saw everything
Bb Am
Everything but me

I wanted to save us wept words that escaped us

But you stayed out (You shut them out)

I fell down to face you to find you were wakeful

In your slumber you saw everything
Bb Am
Everything but me
