Intro: G  Em  C 

  G                         G 
I thought I was hopeless, I thought I was broken 
  Em                          Em 
I struggled to laugh when the whole room was joking 
  C                           A                       C 
I waited in the cold, but the door wouldn't open 'til I 
     D                       G   
'Til I heard your voice in a dream 


    G                       G 
And nothing comes easy when everyone's rushing 
    Em                             Em 
The signal's got speed but there's no real connection 
  C                             A                       C 
I tried reaching out but it was just my reflection 'til I

'Til I heard your voice in a dream 



   Em      G        C       G 
So sing to me and I will forgive you 
    Em        D            C            G 
For taking my heart in the suitcase you packed 
Em      G           C             G 
Sing to me like the lights didn't blind you 
     Em          C       D                       G 
Like you blinded me when I heard your voice in a dream 



    G                          G 
And I could have loved you but you had the hunger 
    Em                          Em 
For life in the lights, so when they called your number 
  C                         A               
I couldn't compete with the spell you were under 
      C  D                        G 
Still I, I hear your voice in my dreams 



   Em      G        C       G 
So sing to me and I will forgive you 
    Em        D            C            G 
For taking my heart in the suitcase you packed 
Em      G           C             G 
Sing to me like the lights didn't blind you 
     Em          C       D                       Em    C    G    Em 
Like you blinded me when I heard your voice in a dream 

C  G  Em  
C  G  Em 

  C                           G                   Em 
I thought I could love you but you had the hunger 
        C                       G                  Em 
Oh, and nothing comes easy when everyone's rushing 
  C                           C 
I thought I could love you, I thought I could love you
