Intro:
C F Em F x4
C Em F G
It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do
Am Em F
To try and keep from calling you
C Em F
Well, can my dreams keep coming true
G Am Em
How can they, cause when I sleep
F
I never dream of you
G
As if the dream of you, it sleeps too
Em F
But it never slips away
G
It just gains its strength and digs its hooks
Em F
To drag me through the day
Am Am/B C C/E F
And I'm caught
Am Am/B C C/E F
I forget all that I've been taught
Am Am/B C C/E F
I can't keep calm, I can't keep still
Am Am/B C C/E F
Pulled apart against my will
C Em F G
It's the hardest thing I've ever had to prove
Am Em F G
You turn to salt as I turned around to look at you
C Em F G
Old friends have said it, the books I've read say it's the thing to do
Am Em
But it's hard to see it when you're in it
F
Cause I went blind for you
G
Then you leave my head and crawl out of bed
Em F
Subconscious ?
G
And for those hours deep in the dark
Em F
Perhaps you don't exist
Am Am/B C C/E F
But I'm caught
Am Am/B C C/E F
I forget all that I've been taught
Am Am/B C C/E F
I can't keep calm, I can't keep still

Pulled apart against my will

And I was thrashing on the line
F
Somewhere between
Dm C
Desperate and divine

I can't keep calm, I can't keep still
Dm C F
Persephone will have her fill

And I'm caught
