[Dm]
[F][G]

[Verse 1]
I [A]put [Dm]my arms around you, [F]your body stalls and droops
[E]I giv[Esus4]e you consolation[E]
but there's [G]nothing I can do
Es[Dm]tranged I listen to a [F]voice so scared
Like a [E]martyr [Esus4]from anothe[E]r world,
[G]I no longer share

[Verse 2]
The [Dm]anguish of a thousand days,
the [F]fear of life like everyone
[E]Against [Esus4]there is no chance to [E]swim,
you [G]have to simply drift along

[Verse 3]
Every[Dm]day the sting moves deeper,
one [F]day it will reach your soul
It's [G]near so close at [A]hand for everyone

[Verse 4]
No [Dm]more consolation, no [F]more aggravation,
no [G]more I am making [A]changes for everyone
[Dm]

[Interlude 1]
[F][G][A]
[Dm][F][G][A]

[Verse 5]
[Dm]Your eyes are breaking,
the cur[F]tain is to drop
You [E]want her here but you
[G]never [Dm]begged before
If I could only scream and
[F]si lence your voice
[E]I might achieve t[Esus4]o wake you up[E]
and [G]make you come to a stop
When my [Dm]world is quiet
and [F]no one fills my head
I [E]give it [Esus4]one more thoug[E]ht
and [G]put it back to bed

[Verse 6]
Every[Dm]day the sting moves deeper,
one [F]day it will reach your soul
It's [G]near so close at hand I
[A]hope you understand

[Verse 7]
[Dm]No m[F]ore[G][A]
[Dm]consultation,
[F]no more aggravation,
[G]No more I am making [A]changes [Dm]for [F]ever[G]yone
