Verse 1:
Eb
Ever since I pulled over
Bb
I've been looking for you
in the strangest places
Eb
With desperation painted
Bb
on my face and I'm shaking
Cm Gm
As I check every car window
Eb
in the parking lot
Cm
Swallowing these ashes whole
Gm
And know that soon I'll be
Eb Eb(hold)
in route to the hospital
Chorus 1:
Eb Bb
You'd think I've got it all
Eb Gm
until tires start to crawl
Eb Bb
I'm asleep at the wheel
Gm F
this binge is monumental
Verse 2:
Eb
Getting high in
a borrowed car
Bb
Listening to the
Eb
songs that got me this
far Into my own head
Bb
Just thinking of this
Cm
always thinking of this
Gm Eb
Put on a pair of sunglasses
G#
that turn February gray
Gm
into everything yellow
You'll always want to
Eb
see as much of the
sky As much of the
Eb(hold)
sky as possible

And I feel no pain at
Eb
all when these tires
Gm
screech down to a
Eb Bb
halt Asleep hitting
the wall this
Gm F
binge is monumental
Bridge:
Eb
Greet the world
with a poker face
Through empty
bottles in a haze
Bb
They won't suspect a
Cm
thing now will they?
Eb
Itemize your life
in a panicked state
So you can sleep at night
Bb
And dream about never
Cm
turning old and gray
Gm F
Catching my breath now
Gm
seems as useless as
F G#
airplane conversations
Gm
cause I enjoy toiling
Eb Eb(hold)
in all of my frustration

I'm asleep at the wheel

And I feel no pain at
Eb
all when these tires
Gm
screech down to a
Eb Bb
halt Asleep hitting
the wall this
Gm F
binge is monumental
Gm F
Our skin is peeling
G#
from the searing
Gm Eb Bb(hold)
steel surrounding us
