Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
When deadbolts awake  you from deja  vu dreams
at  four  in the morning  you know  where I'll be.
out  running red  lights asleep  at the wheel.
the  sirens feed  my nightmares,
i  just close my eyes  and I'm already there;
 its already  too late.
i  know its nothing but lies,
 but they sound  so sincere;
 i find them too  hard to hate.
 and she calls  from the doorway "stolen water  is so sweet,
 so lets drink  in the darkness if you know  what i mean"
 and she calls  from the doorway "stolen water  is so sweet,
 so lets drink  in the darkness if you know  what i mean"
and  I'm almost sure
that  I've been here before,
 that this is not  the first time  I've stood in front  of this door,
 with an overwhelming feeling  that i shouldn't go  in,
but  it seems this is a battle that i never  could win.
 And you
 My true  love
 You call from the hilltop
 You call through the streets
 "Darling don't you know,
 The water is  poison"
 And I say
 "Come on  and give me my poison"
 Chord bank:
 When there are little licks after the A minors at the beginning you can do something like:
e |-0---------0----|
B |-1---------1----|
G |-2-----0h2-2----|
D |-2--0h2----2----|
A |-0---------0----|
E |----------------|
 Theres no actual thrice version of this, but i saw an attempt at an acoustic on here
 and it was totally butchered. this is still wrongish, but it's more right than hte other one.
 Just have fun with it.
 Quesitons and comments you can leave a comment, or IM me at Fantasy Paradox.
