A
The morning suns about to break
E
im looking in as you create
D
someone

A
you lift your head and brush your teeth
E
and make your bed as if you wont
D
sleep again

A
you fix your hair and tie your shoes
E
and tuck your shirt and then you feel
D
new

A
the glass is full, the glass is broke,
E
and every day dissolves and there's
D
no hope

(distortion)

A                                   E
of ever leaving this temporary life

A                                   E
of ever leaving this temporary life

  D     A     E     D

R1                A                              R1 A
you may ask your self "is there anyone so alone?"

A                                      R2 E
but theres no beep before the dial tone

E                                    R2 E
When you pick it up to see who called

E                                R1 A
if there is its probably your mom

A                                         R1
But oh the rising sun brings little cheer

F#                                R1
To this city with the stolen name

E                                      R2
And you're wondering whose bright idea

E                                                     R1        A
It was to pack your things and leave your friends and move down here

R1 F# R1 E R2 E R1 A R1 F# R1 E R2 A
