C11 C/G
What a dream that was
Em F
I almost couldn't wake because
C/G Em
I was frozen in bed with a zombie girl
F
Vacant as a closed down fair
 
F C/G Em F
Sleep paralysis, I sworn I couldve felt you there
C/G F
And I almost could've kissed your hair
C/G Em
But the emptiness withdrew me
F
From any kind of wishful prayer
 
C/G Em
Oh, emptiness
Gm
Tell me 'bout your nature
F C C/B Am
Maybe Ive been getting you wrong

I cover you with questions

Cover you with explanations

Cover you with music
 
F C/G
Then the next night
Em F
Dreaming I could feel your skin
C/G Em
But the dream escaped so easily
F
And I wok up to the road again
 
F C/G
How your words ring through
Em F
Something kinda sweet and blue
C/G Em
And I knw that you'd been understanding
F
Everything that I'd said, too
 
C/G Em
About emptiness
Gm
Tell me 'bout your nature
F C C/B Am
Maybe I've been getting you wrong

I cover you with questions

Cover you with explanations

Cover you with music

Whats on your mind?

In your mind
