G5 G5/C G5/E G5/C X 2
(Verse 1)
G5 G5/C
All this feels strange and untrue
G5/E G5/E
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old
The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cause I need you to look into mine
(Chorus 1)
(While the same chord progression is still playing this comes over the top and continues
the song):
e--------|
B---12---|
G-12--12-|
D--------|
A--------|
E--------|
Tell me that you'll open your eyes x4
(Verse 2)
Get up get out get away from these liars
Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time
Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine
(Chorus 2)
(This continues throughout the song):
e----

Tell me that you'll open your eyes x8

The reason I have included so many mutes is that you can just keep you fingers in the
position and mute and release the necessary strings!
This song is very simple so I won't insult your intelligence by putting the chords all
way through as you will get the idea very quickly! The rhythm is obviously just straight
all the way!
