{Intro}
Am C G F
Am C G F
{Verse}
Am C G F
What I want from you is empty your head
Am C G F
They say: „be true, don't stain your bed“
Am C G F
We do what we need to be free
Fm F G
And it leans on me like a rootless tree
Am C G F
What I want from us is empty our minds
Am C G F
We fake the farce, and fracture the times
Am C G F
We go blind when we've needed to see
Fm F G
And this leans on me, like a rootless...
{Chorus}
Am C G F
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, and all we've been through
Am C G F
I said leave it, leave it, leave it, there's nothing in you
Am C G F
And did you hate me, hate me, hate me, then hate me so good
Am C G
That you can let me out, let me out, let me out
F
Of this hell when you're around
Am C G
Let me out, let me out, let me out
F
Hell when you're around
Am C G F
Let me out, let me out, let me o__ut
{Verse}
Am C G F
What I want from this is learn to let go
Am C G F
I know not of you, of all that's been told
Am C G F
Killers re-invent and believe
Fm F G
And this leans on me, like a rootless...
{Repeat Chorus}
Of this hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
Let me out, {Repeat 11 times}
{Repeat Chorus}
Let me out, {Repeat 11 times}
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you're around
{Repeat and fade}
