Em 

Em 
I remember you asleep in your room  
     Em7 
on a makeshift bed and your clothes were thrown 
Em 
Across the floor and hanging on the door  
         Em7 
Was your favourite dress 

Em 
And I tossed and I turned and I get no rest 
      Em7 
And I remember something I thought I forgot 
Em 
Feeling withdrawn and a little bit lost 
       Em7 
In the middle of the day when we woke up 

         D 
We would sit and watch the weeds 
        C                  G 
Growing through the broken glass 
      D                                   C    Am7 
While out on the street the cars go by so fast 

G       D 
It goes so slow 
     F                C              G 
That nothing here can hold you down 
     D                        F    C 
Your surrounds just bring you down 

Em 
My sense of touch 
Em7 
Words could never mean that much 
Em                    Em7 
My heart beats like a cheap watch 

D 
Running fast and running slow 
C                    G 
Speeding through the dark 
D                                         C      Am7 
While out on the street the cars go by so fast 

G          D    
It goes so slow 
     F                C             G 
That nothing here can hold you down 
     D                        F     C 
Your surrounds just bring you down 

G          D    
It goes so slow 
     F                C             G 
That nothing here can hold you down 
     D                        Am   
Your surrounds just bring you down 
           D 
It goes so slow 
                  Am 
Just to bring you down 
           D 
It goes so slow 
                  Am 
Just to bring you down 
           D 
It goes so slow 
                  Am 
Just to bring you down
