[Intro]
Em
Cmaj7 Em Bm
Cmaj7 Em Bm

[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Em
Drain me dry
Bm
Down to the last drop
Cmaj7
Pearls before swine
Em
All flowers die
Bm
Tapped the last good vein

Don’t know how to shut it off

[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 Em
Yeah, once you get me going
Bm
I don’t know how to stop, I don’t know how to stop
Cmaj7 Em
Once you get me going
Bm
I don’t know how to stop, I don’t know how to

[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Em
All for your sake
Cmaj7 Am
Became the very thing that I hate
D Em
I lost my way
Cmaj7 Am Cmaj7 Em Bm
Spinnin’ in an endless figure eight

[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Em Bm
I won’t miss the feelin’
Cmaj7 Em
My flimsy spine, unsuspicious mind
Bm
I was only being kind

But you mistook me for weak

[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 Em
And once I get going
Bm
I don’t know how to stop, I don’t know how to stop
Cmaj7 Em
Going
Bm
I don’t know how to stop, I don’t know how to

[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Em
All for your sake
Cmaj7 Am
Became the very thing that I hate
D Em
I lost my way
Cmaj7 Am Cmaj7 Em
Spinnin’ in an endless figure eight

[Instrumental]
Cmaj7 Em

[Bridge]
Am
Candlelight, candlelight
Cmaj7 G
Burnin’ ‘til broad daylight
Am
Candlelight, candlelight
Cmaj7 G
Burnin’ at both ends tonight
Am
How could I? How could I?
Cmaj7 G
If I’m made of thin ice
Am
How could I? How could I?
Cmaj7 G N.C.
You’d be wise if you thought twice

[Chorus]
Cmaj7 Em
All for your sake
Cmaj7 Am
Became the very thing that I hate
D Em
I lost my way
Cmaj7 Am
Spinnin’ in an endless figure
Cmaj7 Em
What remains
Am
And now I think I’m losing my shape
D Em
Not a trace
Cmaj7 Am
No end and no beginning
Cmaj7 Em Bm
Figure eight
