D5 D5/C#
I can't get to sleep
C5 C5/B
I think about the implications
D5 D5/C#
Of diving in too deep
C5 C5/B
And possibly the complications
D5 D5/C#
Especially at night
C5 C5/B
I worry over situations
D5 D5/C#
I know will be alright
C5 C5/B
Perhaps it's just imagination
Bm A4 A
Day after day it reappears
Bm
Night after night my heartbeat
A4 A
shows the fear
F#4 F# G
Ghosts appear and fade away
A4 A
D5 D5/C#
Alone between the sheets
C5 C5/B
Only brings exasperation
D5 D5/C#
It's time to walk the streets
C5 C5/B
Smell the desperation
D5 D5/C#
At least there's pretty lights
C5 C5/B
And though there's little variation
D5 D5/C#
It nullifies the night
C5 C5/B
From overkill
Bm A4 A
Day after day it reappears
Bm
Night after night my heartbeat
A4 A
shows the fear
F#4 F# G
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day...
