[Verse 1]
               F#m                E                   D                  A
Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you and hang them in my room
           F#m                         E                     A A
So when I wake up I'll be like "Yeah, everything's all right"
              F#m                   E
You are still here, you are still happy
               D                A
You are still smiling and laughing
                  F#m             E                        A A
You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life
             A       E
And it goes in, in, out through the mouth
 F#m                         E
Breathing exercises I will never figure out

[Pre-Chorus]
       A
So I am running in circles or
 E
Walking in circles or
 F#m
Crawling in circles or
 E
Lying on the ground

[Chorus]
    B
And I
                    E                     A
Can hear your dog whistle from my bedroom
  D
Yeah, yeah
    B
And I
                       E
Can see a flashlight cuttin'
                           A A
Up the trees behind my house
      D
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
            F#m                          E
She says a lot of the kids we graduated with are now homeless
                    D                       A
Which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people
     F#m                   E                     A A
If not everyday, then on an every other day basis
                          F#m               E
And she's probably with a few of them right now
                          D                        A
And they are probably just drinking and talking about
                     F#m            E             A A
How she misses gettin' fucked up and hangin' around
             F#m                                      E            D
And he says "Hey, you're good at that" and she says "Thanks  It's kind of
       A                         F#m                  E            A A
All I got, " and then she looks away and says, "It's also all I need"

[Pre-Chorus]
           A             E
And I can smell plastic burning,
              F#m               E
I can smell chemicals breaking down
            A           E
I got your last three emails,
                   F#m
The ones where you said,
        E                   D
"I was sorting some things out"
    Am                               E                 A
And he will be able to hear her dog whistle from his bedroom
  D
Yeah yeah

[Chorus]
    B
And I
                      E
Can see a flashlight cuttin'
                        A
Up the trees behind my house
  D
Yeah yeah
    B
And I will read the flashing
        D
Like a Morse code explanation
                    A
Though it'll mean nothing
                              D
But take all night to figure out, out, out

[Bridge]
          F#m           E                 D                  A
When I am sad, oh I am sad  But when I'm happy, oh God, I'm happy
             F#m           E                  A A
There's just no place in between for us to meet
          F#m           E                 D                  A
When I am sad, oh I am sad  But when I'm happy, oh God, I'm happy
             F#m           E                  A A

When I am sad, oh I am sad  But when I'm happy, oh God, I'm happy
             F#m           E                  A A
There's just no place in between for us to meet
          F#m           E                 D                  A
When I am sad, oh I am sad  But when I'm happy, oh God, I'm happy
             F#m           E                  A A
There's just no place in between for us to meet
 A
Sad
