Verse 

Bm  A  G 
All my days 
         Bm 
down the neck 
         A 
When I'd awake 
G 
I'd fall through 

Bm 
Wanna be there 
         F#m 
Could've been more 

Suddenly thought 
G           Em 
I'd know I wasn't fair 

Bm 
Wanna be there 
         F#m 
Could've been more 

Try to erase 
G            Em 
Peace is all I'm hoping for  

Bm          A          G 
And when I dream, it's not of you, no 
Bm          A         G 
And when I call, I wonder, I do 
Bm             A                   G 
I run, yeah I run, but you follow, oh, oh 
Bm          A          G 
And when I dream, it's not of you 


Verse 

Bm    A        G 
I    ride the dogs 
        Bm 
on the lake 
           A 
under the lights 
G 
a frozen breeze 

Bm 
Wanna be there 
          F#m 
Could've been more 

Suddenly fall 
G 
Don't change, don't change 

Bm 
Wanna be there 
         F#m 
Could've been more 

Help me to find 
Em 
Won't you pray for my release? 

Bm          A          G 
And when I dream, it's not of you, no 
Bm          A         G 
And when I call, I wonder, I do 
Bm            A         
I run, yeah I run, but you follow 
G 
Drop to my knees but you haunt me more 
Bm          A          G 
And when I dream, it's not of you 

Bridge 

D                G                    D  G 
What do you need to claim a victory? 
D                               G 
Now every light that I leave on 
                 D                G 
Does it have an end that you see? 

Bm          A          G 
And when I dream, it's not of you, no 
Bm          A         G 
And when I call, I wonder, I do 
Bm            A         
I run, yeah I run, but you follow 
G 
Drop to my knees but you haunt me more 
Bm          A          G 
And when I dream, it's not of you
