(Verse)
Em       C 
  Am I insane?
             Am
  I ask myself over and over and over again
Em      C 
  Am I alone?
                Am
  Surrounded by sin I think it might just be the end
Em       C 
  Am I insane?
       Am  
  Am I insane?
       C
  Am I insane?
Em      C
  Am I alone?
                Am
  Surrounded by sin I think
                       Em
  It might just be the end


(Chorus)
C          Am              Em
  I won't let you be the death of me
  G               C       Am         Em
  No, I refuse to let you bring me down
  G
  Bring me down
C          Am              Em
  I won't let you make me out to be
  G                     C  
  The one who's in the wrong
           Am              Em
  And I've lost my mind before
                           G
  But now I'm back and I'm better than ever

(Verse)
Em          C                  Am
  The devil came to take me to hell
  
  But I'm already there
Em                C                Am
  The voices grow fainter but they won't go away
Em       C 
  Am I insane?
       Am  
  Am I insane?
       C
  Am I insane?
Em      C
  Am I alone?
                Am
  Surrounded by sin I think

(Bridge)
      Em                Bm
  The tears have left a blur
         C
  That I can't explain
      Em              Bm
  The pain has left a hole
              C
  In which my heart should have been
      
      Em
  I'm blind with rage
      Bm
  And I can't shake this feeling
  C                             Am
  Irrational, Infectious, Intemperate
      Em
  I'm blind with rage
      Bm
  And I can't shake this feeling
    C                           Am   G
  Irrational, Infectious, Intemperate


(Chorus)
Em                        Bm
  I won't let you be the death of me
              C                Am
  I refuse to let you bring me down
  G
  Bring me down
Em                        Bm
  I won't let you make me out to be
                       C
  The one who's in the wrong

Someone, Somewhere

[Verse 1]

Em                                     C
Bury me, just leave me to sleep in the dirt
Em                      C
Finish me, I'm floating away
Em                                            C
There's a demon staring straight through your eyes
Em
Am I wasting my time?
Em                C
Something's dying inside of me


[Chorus]

Em*                               C*
You make me feel like I'm fucking drowning (I need to cut you out, I need to cut you out)
Em*                                  C*
You made my world come crashing down around me (I need to cut you out)
Oh God I wish you'd just 
Em
Speak to me
C
Black is all that I see
Em
Speak to me
C
You used to be all that I needed


[Verse 2]

Em                               C
I've been crucified and hung out to dry
Em                             C
Yet my heart still beats and I feel so alive
Em                                         C
This time I'll fight for myself as you try to fuck me over
Em                     C
I bet you never cared, I knew you never cared


[Chorus]

Em*                               C*
You make me feel like I'm fucking drowning (I need to cut you out, I need to cut you out)
Em*                                  C*
You made my world come crashing down around me (I need to cut you out)
Em
Speak to me
C
Black is all that I see
Em
Speak to me
C
You used to be all that I needed


[Verse 3]

Em*                    C*
I need to cut you out, I need to cut you out
Em*                    C*
I need to cut you out, I need to cut you out
Em                                                 C
I wish you could save me, there's something lost inside
C
I'm scared it might kill me
C           Em
All my life I've needed you with me
Em
You've always let me down
C
But still I try
Em
Don't leave me here
C
I need you around (don't turn your back on me)
Em
Lift my feet off the ground (I can't cut you out)
C
Your tongue like a knife
Em
Your eyes cut like daggers
C
I don't feel a thing 'cause I'm so dead inside
Em*
Lift my feet off the ground
C*
Don't leave me here
Em*
I need you around

Verse 1:
Cm(all the way)
  We're back again, you know 
we're not fucking around
Got a bottle of jack in our hands
You tryna' keep up kid?
Let's see who hits the ground
We've drank the drinks
We've done the drugs
Clearly we don't remember
We've come so far
We've shown them all
Without us you'd 
fall and fade away


Chorus:
Cm

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah,

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Overreacting

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.
