Something Empty

Tom: Am

Am          E         F                 G
We're back down, the road to where we were is fading
Am          E         F                 G
Your dreams now, I know I'm not the one invading
Am          E         F                 G
My bloody hands, I didn't even bother cleaning
Am          E         F                 G F F E E
And now I know, I'm better off leaving


[Verse 1]
Am          E         F                 G                     Am E F G
Now we're sitting in a boat, where it takes us we don't know
Am          E         F                 G                     Am E F G
You do your best to stay afloat, but I just drilled another hole
F          G                  Am           E
So try to fill them with your pictures of me,
        F                              G         Am E F G
The resemblance is strong but we can never be we
Am          E         F                 G                     F F E E
Just pack your things, I'll let you go, I just wanna be alone


[Verse 2]
Am          E         F                 G                     Am E F G
Now we're standing on the line, another step we're out of time
Am          E         F                 G                     Am E F G
You sing your chorus, I sing mine, but our verse will never rhyme
F          G                  Am           E
So try to listen, try to hear what you see
        F                                 G              Am E F G
The resemblance is strong but you could never hear me,
Am          E         F                 G                     F F E E
Just turn around, I'll let you be, I just wanna see you leave

[Verse 3]
Am          E         F                 G                     Am E F G
Now I'm standing on my mountain rising ever tall
Am          E         F                 G                     Am E F G
You think you made it to the top, but I just built another wall
F          G                  Am           E
So try to climb what you think is my tree,
        F                              G         Am E F G
You may get to the top but you could never reach me
Am          E         F                 G                     F F E E
Just shut the door, I'll let you see, I just wanna set you free


[Outro]
Am          E         F                 G
We're back down, the road to where we were is fading
Am          E         F                 G
Your dreams now, I know I'm not the one invading
Am          E         F                 G
My bloody hands, I didn't even bother cleaning
Am          E         F                 G
And now I know, I'm better of leaving
F F G
There's something empty in my mind
Am   E            F             G
There's something empty in my mind
Am          E     F                   G
When you look at me, there's something empty in my mind
Am          E     F                   G
When you try to speak, there's something empty in my mind
Am          E     F                   G              Am E F G
When I'm all you see, there's something empty in my mind

Am             E        F                      G               E Am
When it's just you and me, there's something empty in my mind
