Tom: Am
Am
Lying here awake in bed
G
all these thoughts inside my head
F
missing how it used to be
Em
everything was clear to me
[Verse 2]
Am
Now my faith is swept aside,
G
distancing a better life
F
Can somebody tell my why
E
this gets worse as time goes by?
[Chorus]
Am G F
And I want to be somebody else for a while
E Am
to maybe get a little relief
G F
there's no escape from this relentless hell
Em Am
feels like it's got a grip on me
[Instrumental]
G F Em Am G F Em
[Verse 3]
Am
I can feel it coming soon
G
scared to even leave this room
F
Pressure of my blood's just rised
Em C
Got no help, I'm hypnotised
[Verse 4]
Am
Now I'm panicking inside
G
Heart feels like it's paralyzed
F
Cried so much my eyes are dry
Em
Sick of all the fear I'm screaming
[Chorus]
Am G F
And I want to be somebody else for a while
E Am
to maybe get a little relief
G F
there's no escape from this relentless hell
Em Am
feels like it's got a grip on me
[Instrumental]
Am C Am C
[Bridge 1]
Am C
Cuz no one knows just what it's like
Am
to live through such anxiety
C
Got to take a drug for all the pain
Am
just to get away from reality
[Bridge 2]
N.C.
I'm so sick of it all
C
I just don't want to die
G
without knowing why
F
something's got a grip on me
G F
Oh why something's got a grip on me
[Instrumental]
Am G Em G Am G D
[Bridge 3]
Am G
An uneasy mind
Em G Am
Why can't just I live a normal life
G D
with no fear, no burdens
Am
that just bottle up inside?
[Bridge 4]
G E G Am
It's like nothing ever seems to just give in
G D A
I'm here, still with the pain and still I'm asking why
[Bridge 1]
Am C
Cuz no one knows just what it's like
Am
to live through such anxiety
C
Got to take a drug for all the pain
Am
just to get away from reality
[Bridge 2]
N.C.
I'm so sick of it all
C
I just don't want to die
G
without knowing why
F
something's got a grip on me
G F
Oh why something's got a grip on me
[Instrumental]
Am G F Em
[Outro]
Am G F
I wanted to be somebody else
