[Verse] Dmaj7 Eadd6 A Dmaj7 Sadness always finds an in B7sus2 Eadd6 A Dmaj7 Sneaks its way past infecting everything B7sus2 Eadd6 A Dmaj7 And every chapter has an end B7sus2 Eadd6 But this is one momentous A Dmaj7 sequel donβt you think? [Pre-Chorus] Dmaj7 Eadd6 And the blackbirds they fly A Dmaj7 Like a frown on the skyline [Chorus] D A Esus4 Right now I feel Iβm running D from the light A Esus4 Engulfed in darkness, D shielded from my eyes A Esus4 One foot in, one out, Iβm stuck on the borderline D A Esus4 Which way will I? [Verse] Dmaj7 Eadd6 A Dmaj7 Guess I should take this on the chin B7sus2 Eadd6 But I donβt even know A Dmaj7 how all of this began B7sus2 Eadd6 A Dmaj7 We are made to mould and bend B7sus2 Eadd6 A How can I wish for nothing when Dmaj7 itβs still a sin? [Chorus] D A Esus4 D Right now I feel Iβm running from the light A Esus4 D Engulfed in darkness, shielded from my eyes A Esus4 One foot in, one out, Iβm stuck on the borderline D A Esus4 Which way will I? [Bridge] Bm A Esus4 Tears never arrive, these ducts are dry Bm A Esus4 We are so blind F#m Esus4 D Waiting on the borderline F#m Esus4 D Waiting on the borderline [Verse] Dmaj7 Eadd6 A Dmaj7 So I will pour another drink B7sus2 Eadd6 And try to drown the pain with A Dmaj7 salt along the rim B7sus2 Eadd6 And Iβll shut off the things A Dmaj7 I think B7sus2 Eadd6 βCoz nothing good will A Dmaj7 ever come from worrying [Chorus] D A Esus4 Right now I feel Iβm running D from the light A Esus4 Engulfed in darkness, D shielded from my eyes A Esus4 One foot in, one out, Iβm stuck on the borderline D A Esus4 Which way will I? [Outro] Bm A Esus4 Tears never arrive, these ducts are dry Bm A Esus4 We are so blind
