Intro: G       D      C      C 

G        
Can I see 
        Em 
What's going wrong with me 
Am       
I used to have it all 
        C       D 
Now I'm alone 
        G 
I'd never say 
        Em 
I'm better off this way 
        Am 
I need something to do 
                C       D 
Somewhere to go 
         
C 
I need time 
To stop moving 
        G 
I need time 
        Em 
To stay useless 
         
(Last time) 
        G       D 
I need time 


        G 
How can I feel 
        Em 
So utterly unreal 
        Am       
Like nothing I could do 
                        C       D 
Would make things change 
        G 
I'm stuck in here 
        Em 
And I'm tired of everywhere 
        Am 
I'm never gonna learn 
        C       D 
To be alone
