Katastro


Tom: Bm

D F# E D B F#m A

[Verse]
D
We woke up sweating and grinning
F#m                        E
We gotta kick it while the worlds still spinning
D                          Bm
We don't even know about the night before
  F#m
We put on purple raincoats and then we walked out the door
D
We're so numb

Pretending that we still feel
F#                                           D
Took one pill now thinking were the real deal
             B
Now we'll be up for days
             F#m
We're just a buck and change
                             A
But then we'll go the long way
D
It's like we're working just to waste the funds on
F#m                                         D
Something that'll burn the lungs and get us through the week
Bm                                 F#m
While we half asleep and trying to make a face fit in that magazine
D                                    F#                     E
Were lying on the basement floor and no body wanna leave to get up and get more

[Pre-Chorus]
D                        Bm
We should leave it alone leave it alone
F#m                                     Bm
We should leave it alone leave it alone

[Chorus]
       D           G
And we still waited
Bm D          G                         Bm
We can't take more than you'll ever know
         G
We still waited
        Bm          D       G
Death I dare you to come my way

[Instrumental]
D F#m D Bm F#m

[Verse]
D                            F#
It's five am wondering where time went

The conversation trying to make a new friend
D                      B
Whose trying to take a chance at life
F#
Sit back take turns and we can roll the dice
D
Just leave it all on the basement floor
F#
Ain't no body wanna leave to get up and get more

[Pre-Chorus]
D                        Bm
We should leave it alone leave it alone
F#m                                    Bm
We should leave it alone leave it alone

[Chorus]
   D     G
We still waited
Bm    D  G                   A      Bm
We can't take more than you'll ever know
       G
We are still waiting
        Bm          D       G              
Death I dare you to come my way
        Bm          D       G
Death I dare you to come my way

[Bridge]
G                        D
Our hearts beat with the waves
              G         Bm
We're calling down acid rain

Darling would you stay awake so we can do it again
G
We are as low as the ground

A mountain high as the clouds
Bm
And if we reach to the top
                                A         G
Well they can watch us make the stars all dissolve

We got the world within our palms
            B
Imma let em know
Bm
Imma let em know
             A             G
That this is all for us to take until we give our lives away
            Bm
Imma let em know
                Bm
Imma let em know

[Chorus]
         G
We still waited
Bm       G                              Bm
We can't take more than you'll ever know
         G
We still waited
        Bm          D       G
Death I dare you to come my way
