G                                                           Em
 Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep
                                                                  C
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars beneath my feet
                                            G
Remember rights that I did wrong, so here I go
                                         Em
Hello, hello. There is no place I cannot go.
                                                 C
My mind is muddy but my heart is heavy.  Does it show?
                                          G
I lose the track that loses me, so here I go.

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Em
  Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
C
 Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
G                                                              Em
 And so I sent some men to fight, and one came back at dead of night.
                                                  C
Said he'd seen my enemy. Said he looked just like me,
                                      G
So I set out to cut myself and here I go.

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Em
  Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
C                    G   D
 Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh

C                      G
 I'm not calling for a second chance,
    D                          Em
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
C                   Em
 Give me reason but don't give me choice
            Am            C              G
‘Cause I'll just make the same mistake a-gain.

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
G                                                            Em
 And maybe someday we will meet, and maybe talk and not just speak
                                                       C
Don’t buy the promises ‘cause, there are no promises I keep
                                         G
And my reflection troubles me, so here I go

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Em
  Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
C                    G   D
 Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh

C                      G
 I'm not calling for a second chance,
    D                          Em
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
C                   Em
 Give me reason but don't give me choice
            Am            C
‘Cause I'll just make the same mistake
C                      G
 I'm not calling for a second chance,
    D                          Em
I'm screaming at the top of my voice.
C                   Em
 Give me reason but don't give me choice
            Am            C              G
‘Cause I'll just make the same mistake a-gain.

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
Em
  Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
C
 Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
G
 Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
                            Em
Saw the world turning in my sheets

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
                        C
And once again I cannot sleep

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
                             G
Walk out the door and up the street

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh

Look at the stars

Em
  Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
                       C
Look at the stars fall down

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh

And wonder where

Aah-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh
         G
Did I go wrong?
