C             G        Am 
I lay down and watch the sun come up 
   C                      G             Am 
don't know how long it's been since my eyes were shut 
   C                      G             Am 
and they're burning, I'm twisting, and turning 
   F                G 
a lonely night, a tired morning 
   C            G       Am 
I'm isolated, awake at five a.m. 
   C            G            Am 
unmotivated, unplugging the clock again 
   C                  G        Am           F 
I lose track of when this day ends and the next one begins 
       G 
so eventually.. 


                   C            G 
I'll take another pill to fall asleep 
                 Am          F 
and slip into unconscious reality 
               Am                   G      
I slowly fade away and begin this dream 
            F             G 
where the pieces fit so easily 


   C                   G      Am                         
I walk around like an outcast to all the lights  
   C               G          Am 
and sounds losing grip of everything 
   C              G               Am 
I daze away and dream more in the day 
   F                  G 
wasting time losing sleep, I can't escape 
   C            G      Am             C 
I'll make it somehow, I'm not sure 
      G           Am 
just how that may be 
      C        G      Am               
I'll fake it 'till I find a cure, 
  F                   G 
I'll just assume for now I'll have to.. 


              C            G 
Take another pill to fall asleep 
                 Am          F 
and slip into unconscious reality 
               Am                   G      
I slowly fade away and begin this dream 
            F             G 
where the pieces fit so easily 
                  C    G 
I'm never really awake 
        Am                 F 
but I'm not asleep, no I'm not asleep 
              Am                   G      
I slowly fade away and begin this dream 
            F             G 
where the pieces fit so easily

I'll just assume for now I'll have to..

Take another pill to fall asleep 
                 Am          F

               Am                   G      
I slowly fade away and begin this dream

I'm never really awake

but I'm not asleep, no I'm not asleep 
              Am                   G      
I slowly fade away and begin this dream 
            F             G 
where the pieces fit so easily 
                  C    G 
I'm never really awake 
        Am                 F 
but I'm not asleep, no I'm not asleep 
              Am                   G      
I slowly fade away and begin this dream 
            F             G 
where the pieces fit so easily
