Intro: G  G6  G  G6  (x2) 

Verse: 1 
G         G6             G   G6 
Sidetracked down the middle 
      D                C 
Never saw it coming, what a surprise 
             G    G   Em 
It's been a wonder 
      G     G6        G   G6 
Electricity tells a story 
        D                             Em        C 
It's a sound getting near as fear is watching you 
                     G  G  Em 
It's watching you close 
        G     G6              G      G6 
You can fight it, both arms swinging 
   D                C 
Or try to wash it away 
                              G  G  Em 
Or pay up to the echoes of 'okay' 

 
     C  Cmaj7     C       Cmaj7 
No more,     no more will I see 
  D 
you  No more will I see 
Am       F               C   Cmaj7  C  Cmaj7 
you  No more will I see you 

Instrumental: G  G  Em  Em 

Verse: 2 

          G    G6            G   G6 
You've schemed more than you have 
        D                                       C 
You've borrowed more than you know, Better to steal the crumbs 
                      G  G  Em 
It makes it easier to go 
    G     G6   G        G6 
Paralyzed by conscience 
         D                 Em          C           G       Em 
Looking for an opening, Apathy as your vocal cords cut out 

            G      G6          G     G6 
Never thought once to ask 
           D                              C 
how's the temperature? Too busy with the finer points 
                       G     G  Em 
Of each struggle we're after 

 
     C  Cmaj7     C       Cmaj7 
No more,     no more will I see 
  D 
you  No more will I see 
Am       F               C   Cmaj7  C  Cmaj7 
you  No more will I see you

Verse: 3 
    G   G6          G       G6 
So long since I've seen you 
           D                    C 
Haven't we both been living the high life 
                G    G  Em 
It flows on the bottom 

 
     C  Cmaj7     C       Cmaj7 
No more,     no more will I see 
  D 
you  No more will I see 
Am       F               C   Cmaj7  C  Cmaj7 
you  No more will I see you
