Tom: C

[Intro] F  G  Am  G 

F
I ponder of something great
   F                           G
My lungs will fill and then deflate
     Am
They fill with fire

Exhale desire
   G
I know it's dire

My time today

F
I have these thoughts
            F
So often I ought

To replace that slot
 G                 Am
With what I once bought

'Cause somebody stole
          G
My car radio
                              F
And now I just sit in silence

( F7  F7  G  Am  G )

F                  G
Sometimes quiet is violent
Am
I find it hard to hide it
    G
My pride is no longer inside
      F
It's on my sleeve

My skin will scream
    F
Reminding me of
         G       Am
Who I killed inside my dream
                      G
I hate this car that I'm driving
                       F
There's no hiding for me
                                  F
I'm forced to deal with what I feel
                         G               Am
There is no distraction to mask what is real
G
I could pull the steering wheel

F
I have these thoughts
            F
So often I ought

To replace that slot
 G                 Am
With what I once bought

'Cause somebody stole
          G
My car radio
                              F
And now I just sit in silence

( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )

F
I ponder of something terrifying
F                                    G
'Cause this time there's no sound to hide behind
Am
I find over the course of our human existence
G
One thing consists of consistence
F
And it's that we're all battling fear
     F                                       G
Oh dear, I don't know if we know why we're here
Am
Oh my,

Too deep

Please stop thinking
G
I liked it better when my car had sound

F7
There are things we can do
               F7                            G
But from the things that work there are only two
     Am
And from the two that we choose to do
G
Peace will win

And fear will lose
         F7
There's faith and there's sleep
    F7                      G
We need to pick one please because
Am
Faith is to be awake
            G
And to be awake is for us to think
                F7
And for us to think is to be alive
            F7
And I will try with every rhyme
     G     Am
To come across like I am dying
             G                       F7
To let you know you need to try to think

I have these thoughts
            F7
So often I ought

To replace that slot
 G                 Am
With what I once bought

'Cause somebody stole
          G
My car radio
                                F
And now I just sit in silence

( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )

( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
( F  G  Am  G )
