Nuclear Daydream

Tom: C

  C                   Am
You can hold your needle
  C                   Am
You can point your gun
  Dm                   C
You can shoot and kill me
  Dm                   C
Or you could let me run

CHORUS
 Dm               F              C       Am
But I won't ever cry for you anymore
 Dm                    F                  C        Am
The days when I would die for you are now gone

VERSE 2
 C                         Am           
If there's a plan then tell me
 C                   Am
If you know who you are
 Dm                C 
A princess or a mummy
 Dm              C
A flower or a scar

CHORUS
 Dm              F               C       Am
But I won't ever cry for you anymore
 Dm                    F                  C        Am
The days when I would die for you are now gone
       C          Am
Are now gone

BRIDGE
G                           F            Dm
            What's it like to lose control
G                        F          Dm
            Are you even here at all

VERSE 3
 C                     Am
This is a nuclear daydream
 C                 Am
It's my atomic bomb
 Dm                   C
I already lost my passage
 Dm                   C
I already lost our home

CHORUS
 Dm              F               C       Am
But I won't ever cry for you anymore
 Dm                    F                  C        Am
The days when I would die for you are now gone

VERSE 4
 C                          Am              
There's only dreams and numbers
 C                   Am
And wishes left unsaid
 Dm                      C
In all the burning letters
 Dm               C
Underneath our bed

CHORUS
 Dm              F               C        Am
But I won't ever cry for you anymore
 Dm                    F                  C        Am
The days when I would die for you are now gone
       C          Am
Are now gone
       C          Am  
Are now gone
       C          Am
Are now gone
