Intro: E

Wishful eyes, 
                                          E
Fill this room up with the spirit of your pride
                                         C
So, that all the world can hear it go in vain
           D                         E
Oh, once again I’m cracked and empty leaking
              C                   D
Trip into the drain, wait I can explain
                        E
Inside myself that I am seeking

       E
Little smiles,
                                   E
Every moment brings another wasted mile
                                    C
Between everything and everything I need
          D                               E
Get up to leave for the time has come for leaving
                   C                          D
And if it don’t succeed we'll just burry all belief
                              E
That we could escape this empty evening

E
But, someone take control of me
     E
I am spinning in infinity
        E                                C
With my life its going endlessly from control
              D                                 E
Take off your clothes for the time has come for sleeping
                C                         D
Cause everybody knows the world continues blow
                          E
Whether or not your still breathing

E
Little child,
     E
I discovered you and hold your tail to fly
        E                                  C
Just to punch you in the face with nothing more
                       D
Than what all my anger bore
                             E
It’s little head and started screaming
                           C
But we’ve heard this all before
                     D
So, just open up the door
                             E
And fill your mouth with freedom's feelings

     E
But, someone take control of me
     E
I am trudging with my infantry
        E                          C
With my army and my enemies taking hold
              D                                 E
Take off your clothes for the time has come for sleeping
                C                         D
Cause everybody knows the world continues though
                         E
Whether or not your still breathing
 
Outro: Remove the finger holding down the D string and slide your hand up the guitar in an Em shape before going back down to The E chord.
