[Verse 1]

A                   Em7              A
Breaking up in the station, a final train
              Em7                        A
I don't even know if I'll ever see you again
         Em7                 A
Is it a choice that we even have?

A                      Em7                    A
Bang bang down on the piano 'til I smash the keys
         Em7               A
Living alone with the melodies
              Em7                   A
Everything's gone and I don't know where

[Pre-Chorus]
         Dsus2              F#m       E
And the rule of thumb don't apply anymore
           Dsus2
'Cause the house is burning....

[Chorus]
A              Em7          Dmaj7
    Trying to pull myself away
A                    Em7                   Dmaj7
    I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
A              Em7          Dmaj7  
    Trying to pull myself away

[Verse 2]
A                   Em7                       A
Lately when I get lost there's this thing I know
          Em7                    A
Even the dogs have somewhere to go
            Em7                      A
Everything comes if you just let it be

A                        Em7                      A
Work, work, brighten the corners that will never see
              Em7                              A
Untangle the thoughts that you know what they mean
                  Em7                   A
I hope that the answer didn't come too late

[Pre-Chorus]
         Dsus2               F#m      E
And the rule of thumb don't apply on me
            Dsus2
'Cause the tables are turning....

[Chorus]
A              Em7          Dmaj7
    Trying to pull myself away
A                    Em7                Dmaj7
    I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
A              Em7          Dmaj7
    Trying to pull myself away
A                    Em7                Dmaj7
    I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape
        A
Can't escape

[Outro]
     A                    Em7                      Dmaj7
(Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone)
  Dmaj7                 A
Trying to pull myself away
     A                    Em7                      Dmaj7
(Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone)

(Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone)
  Dmaj7           A   Em7
Trying to pull myself away
     A                    Em7                      Dmaj7
(Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone)
     A                    Em7                      Dmaj7
(Everything's gone, everything's gone, everything's gone)
