[Intro 1]
[F][G]
[F][G]
[F][G]
[F][G]
Re[F]member

[Verse 1]
coming home
at [G]four in the morn[F]ing
Before the sun was [G]up
[F]Back when the east was a fir[G]e of gold
Just [F]waiting for the rest of the [G]sky
to fall in [F]love[G]
[F][G]
Our [F]hope

[Verse 2]
is just a meta[G]phor,
of something better
For [F]all of our dreams to[G]night
And [F]fear is just a shadow [G]of,
the things that matter the [F]most
And I fear that I'm [G]losing hope tonight

[Chorus 1]
[C]Oh, I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh, staring up at the ceiling
[F]Oh, it's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
[C]Oh, yeah would you believe me?
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
[F]Oh, the words that I wanted to say

[Interlude 1]
I feel them slipping away
[F][G]
[F][G]
[F][G]
[F][G]
Re[F]member

[Verse 3]
that kid with the [G]quivering lip
Whose [F]heart was on his sleeve
like a [G]first aid kit?
Where [F]are you [G]now?
Where [F]are you [G]now?
Re[F]member that kid
didn't [G]know when to quit?
I [F]still lose my breath when I [G]think about it
Oh, [F]where'd you [G]go?
(Oh [F]where'd you go?)

[Chorus 2]
[C]Oh, I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh, staring up at the ceiling
[F]Oh, it's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
[C]Oh, yeah would you believe me?
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
[F]Oh, the words that I wanted to say

[Bridge 1]
I feel them slipping away
[Am]I know this isn't what you had wante[G]d
Past words in the present
are [F]haunting us now
And on and on and on and on
[Am]My heartbeat could tell you it's urgen[G]t
I try to shout but the [F]words don't come out

[Chorus 3]
(Away) I feel them slipping away
[C]Oh, I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh, staring up at the ceiling
[F]Oh, it's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
[C]Oh, yeah would you believe me?
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
[F]Oh, the words that I wanted to say

[Outro 1]
I feel them slipping away
[F][G][F]
(I [G]feel them slipping a[F]way)[G][F]
(I [G]feel them slipping a[F]way)[G]
[F][G]
