Saw it on TV

Saw it staring right on back at me

    F                  G 
Oh, I could feel the shadow coming 
   Am                 Em 
Straight on down the line 
F                G            F 
Masquerading like it was a friend of mine 
    F                  G 
Oh, I could feel the darkness 
         Am               Dm 
Wrapping all its arms in mine

Oh, I could feel the world was turning 
Am              Em 
All inside my mind

All inside, all inside my mind

    F               G 
I knew it when it started 
           Am                Em 
Felt the shift right as it parted 
         F                 G 
Saw my feet right down below me 
          Am              Em 
Saw the whole room move around me 
       F               G 
Saw my old life and my old friends 
         Am            Em      F G 
Saw me haunted, saw me back again 


Verse: 4 

     F                G              Am              Em 
Oh, maybe there's a past life coming out inside of me 
 F               G             Am  Em 
Maybe it's the song I'm singing 
 F             G                Am                  Em 
Maybe everything's just turning out how it should be 
 F                G              Am              Em 
Maybe there's a past life coming out inside of me 
     F               G               Am         Em          F 
Oh, maybe there's a past life coming out inside, inside of me
