verse 1:
E Eb D A

Now the void is opened, calling me inside
A D
It's hard to hide
[Refrão]
C E G D E
I'm hanging by a thread, I'm waiting for your call

But my parachute's in shreds
E Eb D A only once
verse 2:
E Eb D A
All the miles I ride, my body turning thin

A crumpled piece of paper trying to open

I'm climbing up the rabbit hole, I feel the spin

And taste the wind
[Refrão]

But my parachute's in shreds
