  Lost one  friend, and another
  Lost my  way, and a lover
  But she  never really knew  me at all
  Now, what's the  thought that'll change  me?
  Did you  think you could break  me?
  Guess your pieces  didn't shape  me after all
  TRANSITION 1:
  How  do you sleep  through the night?
  It's so  sad,  and she says;
  "These  are the things  that aren't right
  in your  head"  - so I'm like;
  "Could  you describe  being alive?
  Knowing  you must suffer to survive"
  PRE-VERSE:
  So, what's with love  - means attention
  What's with lost  - as direction?
  What with old  pain that'll beckon  to the weak
  What's with hate  - had redemption
  What's with trust  - needs rejection
  What with killing  the dance  that we seek?
  TRANSITION 2:
  So how  do you sleep  through the night?
  It's so  sad,  and she says;
  "These  are the things  that aren't right
  in your  head"  - so I'm like;
  "Could  you describe  being alive?
  Knowing  you must suffer to survive"
  PRE-BRIDGE:
  Baby,  when you threw  the cup
  You knew  I wouldn't pick  it up
  And maybe,  there's another  life
  That took  you away
  And life  is like a photograph
  You tear  it up and send  it back
  But please  no more pictures today
  So, how  do you sleep  through the night?
  It's so  sad,  and she says;
  "These  are the things  that aren't right
  in your  head"  - so I'm like;
  "Could  you describe being  alive?
  Knowing  you must suffer too, you really do"
  TRANSITION 3:
  How  do you sleep  through the night?
  It's so  sad,  and she says;
  "These  are the things  that aren't right
  in your  head"  - so I'm like;
  "Could  you describe being alive?
  Knowing  you must suffer to survive"

[G]   [C]

  Lost o[G]ne friend, and an[C]other
  Lost [G]my way, and a l[C]over
  But s[G]he never really kn[Em]ew me at a[Cm]ll

  Now, what's t[G]he thought that'll ch[C]ange me?
  Did y[G]ou think you could br[C]eak me?
  Guess your pi[G]eces didn't sh[Em]ape me after a[Cm]ll

 TRANSITION 1:
[Cm]   [Dm]   [Eb]

  H[G]ow do you sl[F7]eep through the n[Em]ight?
  It's s[D]o s[C]ad, and she says;
 "Th[G]ese are the th[F7]ings that aren't r[Em]ight
  in y[D]our h[C]ead" - so I'm like;
 "C[G]ould you desc[F7]ribe b[Em]eing [C]al[A7]ive?
  Kn[Eb7]owing you must suffer to survive"

 PRE-VERSE:
[G]   [C]

  So, what's with l[G]ove - means att[C]ention
  What's with l[G]ost - as dir[C]ection?
  What with o[G]ld pain that'll b[Em]eckon to the w[Cm]eak

  What's with h[G]ate - had red[C]emption
  What's with tr[G]ust - needs rej[C]ection
  What with k[G]illing the d[Em]ance that we s[Cm]eek?

 TRANSITION 2:
[Cm]   [Dm]   [Eb]

  So h[G]ow do you sl[F7]eep through the n[Em]ight?
  It's s[D]o s[C]ad, and she says;
 "Th[G]ese are the th[F7]ings that aren't r[Em]ight
  in y[D]our h[C]ead" - so I'm like;
 "C[G]ould you desc[F7]ribe b[Em]eing [C]al[A7]ive?
  Kn[Eb7]owing you must suffer to survive"

 PRE-BRIDGE:
[G]   [C]

  B[Eb7]aby, when you thr[C]ew the cup
  You kn[F]ew I wouldn't p[Gm]ick it up
  And m[Eb7]aybe, there's an[C]other life
  That t[F]ook you aw[D]ay
  And l[Eb7]ife is like a ph[C]otograph
  You t[F]ear it up and s[Gm]end it back
  But pl[Eb7]ease no more pictures t[C]oday

  So, h[G]ow do you sl[F7]eep through the n[Em]ight?
  It's s[D]o s[C]ad, and she says;
 "Th[G]ese are the th[F7]ings that aren't r[Em]ight
  in y[D]our h[C]ead" - so I'm like;
 "C[G]ould you desc[F7]ribe [Em]bei[G]ng al[A7]ive?
  Kn[Eb7]owing you must suffer too, you really do"

 TRANSITION 3:
[Cm]   [D]   [Eb]

  H[G]ow do you sl[F7]eep through the n[Em]ight?
  It's s[G]o s[C]ad, and she says;
 "Th[G]ese are the th[F7]ings that aren't r[Em]ight
  in y[G]our h[C]ead" - so I'm like;
 "C[G]ould you desc[F7]ribe [Em]bei[G]ng [C]al[A7]ive?
  Kn[Eb7]owing you must suffer to survive"
