Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][Em][G][C][G]
What [C]do you see

[Verse 1]
[Em]
[G][C]
[G]Staring at the ceiling?
[C]What would you [Em]dream[G][C]
If you could [G]get to sleep at all?
Said [Am]you can[Em]'t breathe[G][C]
A chok[G]ing fear of feeling
Begs you [C]to scream
Each and [G]every nightfall

[Verse 2]
If you're gonna [G]go, then go
But [C]go with caution
[G]If you're gonna lea[C]ve
[G]Then leave them [C]holding the bag,
[G]yea[C]h[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]And a rain will come and wash
out [D]every place we [Em]go
So drink [C]with me [G]now
I'm only terrified when
[D]you're letting [Em]go
So shake [C]with me now
[G]It's time to tell

[Verse 4]
[C]you how I [G]really feel
[Em]Camer[G]on says it's [C]time for a [G]change
You [C]went to the mountain
[G]s to hunt g[C]hosts
I watched in [G]horror as we spoke
For what [C]was [G]the last time [C]in our lives
As [G]far as he knows

[Verse 5]
If you're gonna [Em]go, then g[G]o
[Em]But go w[C]ith caut[G]ion
If you're gonna [Em]leave
Then [G]leave [Em]them [C]holding the bag,
[G]oh,[C] ye[G]ah

[Verse 6]
[G]
And a rain will come and wash
out [D]every place we [Em]go
So drink [C]with me [G]now
I'm only terrified when
[D]you're letting [Em]go[D][Em]
So shake [C]with me now

[Verse 7]
When the [G]light has given up on me
But I'm still not hard to [D]find
[G]These fin[Em]gernails, like breadcrumb trails
I al[C]ways leave [Em]be hi[C]nd
When it's [G]raining rats
And nasty thoughts inside
my head
And there's [Em]only one place I should be
But I'm [C]here [G]instead

[Interlude 1]
[Em]

[Verse 8]
[Em]Lie awake in t[D]he moonl[Em]ight
[C]Drive as fast as [Em]you c[C]an[D]
[Em]Die out there in the sunshine
[C]Washed up here on the sand
Now [D]everybody [Em]knows where
everybody goes to
But no one can [C]tell us if we're going alone,
[D]no
[G]

[Verse 9]
And a rain will come and wash
out [D]every place we [Em]go
So drink [C]with me [G]now
I'm only terrified when
[D]you're letting [Em]go
So shake [C]with me now

[Verse 10]
When [G]the light has given up on me
But I'm still not hard to [D]find[G]
These [Em]fingernails, like breadcrumb trails
I al[C]ways [Em]leave be[C]hind
When it's [G]raining rats
And nasty thoughts inside
[C]my [G]hea[D]d[G]
[D]And there's [Em]only one place I should be
But I'm [C]here [Em]in stead
[C][G]
