Lie Awake

Tom: C

Am     G/B       C       Em      F
I know sometimes it gets hard to breathe
Am       G/B    C           Em     F
When you always get pulled  underneath
    Am          G/B       C       Em
And some things they feel hard to say
F                                    Cmaj7
When the voices start you weigh you down

Am     G/B    C      Em    F
I know that I always think too much
Am      G/B  C        Em  F
But I’m only learning how too trust
    Am       G/B    C      Em
The dark and I have become friends
F                                       Cmaj7
Used to be scared won’t pretend right now


[Chorus]
     C
If a bird takes flight
          Cmaj7/B
Without a reason why
        Am              C/G
And the moon circles the earth
              F
Then you can it make it through the night

          C
You could leave tonight
      Cmaj7/B
To my house nearby
        Am            C/G
You can lie awake with me until
    F
the sun begins to rise


[Interlude]
Am G/B C Em F


[Verse 2]
Am      G/B      C       Em    F
Does he hear you falling to your knees?
Am      G/B  C        Em   F
Praying to a god you don’t believe in
Am     G/B       C       Em
Pick yourself up off the floor
F                                   Cmaj7
Promise that it's all worth fighting for


[Chorus]
       C
Like a tree don’t know
         Cmaj7/B
Just how tall it grows
Am              C/G
Standing in the woods
              F
He knows that he is not alone

          C
So you’ll get there too
           Cmaj7/B
And you’ll be there soon
   Am           C/G              F
If only you can see yourself the way that I see you


[Outro]
C                  Cmaj7/B               Am
        Lie awake with me when it’s hard to sleep
C/G                 F
     Lie awake with me
               C                Cmaj7/B
Lie awake with me when it’s hard to sleep
               Am
Lie awake with me
C/G                 F       C
     Lie awake with me
