D A
i can’t get to sleep
C G
i think about the implications
D A
of diving in too deep
C G
and possibly the complications
D A
especially at night
C G
i worry over situations
D A
i know will be alright
C G
perhaps its just my imagination

Bm Asus A
day after day it reappears
Bm Asus A
night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
F#sus4 F# G
ghosts appear and fade away
Asus A

D A
alone between the sheets
C G
only brings exasperation
D A
it’s time to walk the streets
C G
smell the desperation
D A
at least there’s pretty lights
C G
and though there’s little variation
D A
it nullifies the night
C G
from overkill

Bm Asus A
day after day it reappears
Bm Asus A
night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
F#sus4 F# G
ghosts appear and fade away
Asus A
come back another day

( solo )

D A
i can’t get to sleep
C G
i think about the implications
D A
of diving in too deep
C G
and possibly the complications
D A
especially at night
C G
i worry over situations
D A
i know will be alright
C G
it’s just overkill

Bm Asus A
day after day it reappears
Bm Asus A
night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
F#sus4 F# G
ghosts appear and fade away
F#sus4 F# G
ghosts appear and fade away

slow ( one strum per chord )

F#sus4 F# G
ghosts appear and fade away
