[Verse 1]
[C]I couldn't sleep last nig[G]ht
[F]'Cause I tri[C]ed to forget you
In [F]the suffoc[C]ated [F]air
I re[C]solved to let you go

[Verse 2]
[C]Twis[F]ted [C]all our [G]dream[Dm]s
[F]Til you [C]became the nightmare
[F]Close it off in[G]side
Or else the [C]hurt is gonna rise

[Interlude 1]
[C][Dm]
[F][Dm][F][G]

[Verse 3]
[G]I couldn't [F]sleep [G]last [F]night
'Cause I [C]tried to forget you
Heard the [F]old man [C]and [F]the sea
Singing low
[C][Am]

[Verse 4]
[C]
And [F]the silver fir she [C]cried[G][F]
Never forget [C]had gone and died
And the [F]babes [C]that clung to [F]her[G]
Had all [C]let go

[Verse 5]
[Dm]My dear [F]she touched my [G]skin
And oh [Dm]did the skin
[F]Set a burning
[Dm]My dear she touc[F]hed
[Dm]my s[F]kin[Dm]

[Verse 6]
Where once we [C]kissed [G]and ran[Dm]
The [F]memory [C]scorched [G]the man[Am]
[Dm]I have to te[G]ll you dea[Dm]r (ask me
[D]to [Dm]hold [G]you [F]and I)[G]
Death has become my [D]breath[Am]ing
(far away gone [G]and I)

[Verse 7]
My dear [C]she touched [F]my ski[Dm]n
(ask me to tell [Dsus4]you I)[G][F][Dm]
And oh she [F]did, [G]she touched my [Am]skin[Dm]
(holding the ghost of a [Dsus4]man I)[Am]
Where [Dm]once we [C]kissed and [Dm]ran[Dsus4]
[Dm](ask me to tell you I)
This madness [F]haunted the [Dm]man
(holding the ghost of [G]a man)

[Verse 8]
Still [C]I'm holding out
[G]my [Dsus4]hand[F]
[G]Standing by [C]my haunted
[Dsus4]man[Dm][F]
Yes, your ghost[G]s have
got me [Dsus4]too[Dm]
But it's me and [F]you[G]
I can't [Dm]run

[Verse 9]
[F]Sti[G]ll I'm holding out[F] my [G]han[F]d
Stand[Am]ing b[F]y[G]

But it's me [F]and [G]you[Gsus4]
[G]I can't r[F]un[Dm][Am]
