Intro E G A (x2) 


verse 1 

   E           F#m           E            F#m 
If I decide to listen to the voices in my head 
E              F#m        E    G A 
Strange hallucinations I avoid 
    E              F#m         E              F#m 
The people and the places, the living and the dead 
  E               F#m              E     G A 
I cannot find the truth within the noise 


G           F#m     C        A 
Make things colder, they get stronger 
G        F#m    C 
Mess you down inside 
G             F#m      C            A 
Where they're two men, and I wander rough 
       C         D 
It's a long dark ride 


verse 2 

E            F#m              E            F#m 
Now I'm very conscious of the voices in my head 
     E            F#m         E    G A 
That multiply and amplify the fear 
E              F#m            E              F#m 
I can play the victim, or get on with life instead 
    E           F#m            E     G A 
I'm finding resolution as they clear 


   G     F#m   C     A   
We had a final conversation 
G    F#m   C 
I remember that 
G    F#m       C               A 
Understanding, it's a long way back 
   C           D 
If I decide to listen 

(interlude, same as verse and Chorus above) 


verse 3 

E               F#m           E            F#m 
No more time to listen to the voices in my head 
  E                  F#m             E    G A 
I said goodbye, it's time to say farewell 
   E                  F#m         E                  F#m 
To all the ghosts and demons, and all the words they said 
    E           F#m         E     G A 
And I decide to listen to myself
