Intro: A
verse:
A Em7
Stop the clocks and turn the world around
G Dadd9 A
Let your love lay me down
Em7 G Dadd9 A
And when the night is over there'll be no sound
A Em7
Lock the box and leave it all behind
G Dadd9 A
On the backseat of my mind
Em7 G Dadd9 A
And when the night is over where will I rise?
Fmaj7 G Dadd9 A
What if I'm already dead, how would I know?
Fmaj7 G Dadd9 E E7 A
What if I'm already dead, how would I know...
A Em7
Lost inside my head behind the wall
G Dadd9 A
Do they hear me when I call?
Em7 G Dadd9 A
But when the night is over where will I fall?
Em7 G Dadd9 A
And when the fight is over where will I fall?
Fmaj7 G Dadd9 A
What if I'm already dead, how would I know?
Fmaj7 G Dadd9 E E7
What if I'm already dead, how would I know...

Stop the clocks and turn the world around

Let your love lay me down
Em7 G Dadd9 A
And when the night is over there'll be no sound

And now the night is over there'll be no sound
Em7 G Dadd9 A
And now my fight is over there'll be no sound...
