Intro:
G Am Em C
G Am
I've been sleeping with the lights on
Em C
'Cause the darkness is surrounding you
G Am
This is my world, this is my choice
Em C
And you're the drug that gets me through
G Am
I've been waiting for an answer
Em C
Because I built this bed for two
G Am
I'm just waiting on your answer
Em C
I built this bed for me and you
G Am Em C
Could you see that I am yours?
G Am Em C
So will you be my life support?
G Am Em C
You're my life support, you're my life support
G Am
Sick of waking up in darkness
Em C
When the sky is always painted blue
G Am
There's a method to my madness
Em C
It's clear that you don't have a clue
G Am
I've been waiting for an answer
Em C
Because I built this bed for two
G Am
I'm just waiting on your answer
Em C
I built this bed for me and you
G Am Em C
Could you see that I am yours?
G Am Em C
So will you be my life support?
G Am Em C
You're my life support, you're my life support
G Am Em C
You're my life support, you're my life support
G Am Em C
G Am Em C
G Am Em C
Can't you see that I am yours?
G Am Em C
So will you be my life support?
G Am
I've been sleeping with the lights on
Em C
'Cause the darkness is surrounding you
