Verse
D
So I've been thinking 'bout something
E
Lately I've been alive
F#m
Cause I found my reason in nothing
E
So I won't close my eyes
D
Cause I don't want to miss one second
E
And I don't want to feel so cold
A
And I don't want to be so sad that we are who we are
F#m E
Cause we had no control
Pre-Chorus
F#m
But only by the night
A
Will we ever make headlines
D
Will we ever make things right
F#m
When we've only ourselves to blame
A D E
When we've only ourselves to blame
[Refrão] D
So I won't sleep
E
No more
A
No I won't sleep
N.C.
No more
Bm
I won't sleep
D
I always thought that there'd be more than just wishing (No more)
E
(My life away
A
No DMT will stop me)
A
Like I could always
F#m E
Figure it out and never have to abandon what's in-front of me
E
Dream
D
No more
Verse
E
So get this doubt out of my head
D
It's only real if you let it, and I've been letting go of my ghosts
N.C.
I'll never let them catch me no more
D
But these words are all I have
F#m E
So I'll just keep dreaming out loud
D
And if I just keep talking
F#m E
Maybe I'll figure all this out
Pre-Chorus
D
But only by the night
F#m
Will we ever make headlines
E
Will we ever make things right
F#m
When we've only ourselves to blame
D E
When we've only ourselves to blame
