Intro 
A D F#m D x2

[A]Count back, anaesthetize
Colours burnt into my eyes

[D]Life for you is shades of grey
Help me, help me find my way

[F#m]Lost, lost, never found
Hide your secrets, settle down

[D]I am young and I am naïve
Tell me something I will believe

[A]Take me, take me far away
From this city's soul decay

[D]Hid away 'til I was eighteen
Only saw colors on a TV screen

[F#m]Skinny jeans and sunglasses
A fashion statement for the masses

[D]What you're doing makes me sick
Overhyped and generic

[A]Shine, shine, like the sun
Spread your warmth through everyone

[D]I asked you why people die
You said we all have a design

[F#m]Slide, slide into the sea
Landslide coming down on me

[D]I said I was into you
You said you were into me

[Chorus]A
You never answer on the phone

[D]With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone

[F#m]I look for you by the underpass

[D]Looks like this love wasn't meant to last

[Bm]You said you reap just what you sow

[D]So tell me, where does your garden grow?

[F#m]You said in time the pain would pass

[D]Looks like the end is here at last

Intro 
[A]A [D] [F#m] [D]
Burn, burn, like a star
Burn a hole in every heart

[D]Strung out on a trail of blood
Who knew the stars were not enough?

[F#m]Smile, smile, if you can
If you can't I'll understand

[D]See these stiches in my eyes
Smash computers, kill rockstars

[A]Purge the past and waste my mind
Leave no scent or trace behind

[D]One day when you bury me
When I wake up what will I see?

[F#m]Down, down, underground
Dig for fire, dig for sound

[D]What is on the radio
Cause I would like to say hello

[A]Crawl, crawl, through the dirt
Jesus, show me what you're worth

[D]Can't you just send us a sign
Tell us all that we're doing fine

[F#m]Nights for sitting in the dark
Days for lying in the park

[D]Wake me up from my sick dream
A requiem for this dead scene

[Chorus]A
You never answer on the phone

[D]With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone

[F#m]I look for you by the underpass

[D]Looks like this love wasn't meant to last

[Bm]You said you reap just what you sow

[D]So tell me, where does your garden grow?

[F#m]You said in time the pain would pass

[D]Looks like the end is here at last

A D F#m D x8
Woah oh oh ooo ooo

[A]Count back, anaesthetize
Colours burnt into my eyes

[D]Life for you is shades of grey
Help me, help me find my way

[F#m]Mother can't you help me now
Cause I've been drowning in the sound

[D]Lying on the motorway
Writing songs and wasting away

End on D
