F#m D A C#m F#m D A F#m
[Verse 1]
F#m D A E
Every night I am walking around my room with my hands clasped
F#m D
tight, what am I like?
A C#m
I'm sinking in my living room to rhythms that are never quite
F#m
right.
D A C#m
The sound and the sight twirling around eyes and I don't think
F#m
I've seen the light.
D A
What's the lesson in these lines? I'm just cringing the night
D A D
Away, yeah, cringing the night away
[Chorus]
E A
Melodies don't let me down.
E
They lie with me on the ground.
F#m D
They tell me it's okay to fall.
E F#m
So drop the needle, start again.
F#m D A C#m F#m D A F#m
[Verse 2]
F#m D A
So how could I know when I was listening to "The End of The
C#m F#m D A
Line" at 12 years old that now I'd fold in two when I hear that
C#m F#m
song on the radio.
D
"Trust your intuition" They're words that I believe.
A E
Now the songs I loved when I was young are starting to apply to
C#m F#m
Me.
D A
So what can I say? Oh! Darling, I'm just cringing the night
D A D
away, yeah, just cringing the night away.
[Chorus]
E A
Melodies don't let me down.
E
They lie with me on the ground.
F#m D
They tell me it's okay to fall..
[Bridge]
E F#m E D
Take a deep, deep breath. 'Cause nothing's ever life or death.
E F#m E D
Not by any stretch, please think of all that you have left.
E F#m E D
Take a deep, deep breath. 'Cause nothing's ever life or death.
E F#m C#m E D E D
Not by any stre-------tch
E A E F#m
How am I expected to gro------w? It's all too cynical.
A E F#m
[Outro]
F#m A E F#m
Its all too cynical
F#m A E F#m
Its all too cynical
F#m A
Its all too cynical
