Am 
it's not so much a storm, 
           Em 
but just a cloud that lives inside of me 
   F                            G 
he doesn't stir so easily these days, 
            E                 Am 
but when he wakes he goes the distance 
                 Em 
in a marathon of days too long 
                F 
open containers that sing songs, 
                     G 
'you'll never dream again, 
            E 
but you can pray' 

           Am          G             F 
i guess we only settle in to what we know 
           Am            G          F     G 
i guess we always settle in, and we know. 
             Am           G 
but there is comfort in a world 
      Am              G             Am 
where darkness is the only thing we see 
         G                 F       G 
and cold is all we have to breathe 
           Am              G 
where affectations keep us company, 
          Am                  G                 Am 
where the lies we tell to the eyes that roll in doubt  
            C             F       E  Am 
are somehow out of our control.  

Am                                     Em 
it's not about the scars, but more the crowds that walk all over me 
     F                              G 
they don't give up too easily these days, 
              E                Am 
but when they break they go to pieces. 
                         Em 
fall apart right here in north side bars 
                 F 
under a sky that knows no stars 
                   G 
you'll never shine again, 
             E 
but you will stay. 

           Am          G             F 
i guess we only settle in to what we know 
           Am            G          F     G 
i guess we always settle in, and we know. 
             Am           G 
but there is comfort in a world 
      Am              G             Am 
where darkness is the only thing we see 
         G                 F       G 
and cold is all we have to breathe 
           Am              G 
where affectations keep us company, 
          Am                  G                 Am 
where the lies we tell to the eyes that roll in doubt  
            C             F     E 
are somehow out of our control.

             Am           G 
but there is comfort in a world 
      Am              G             Am 
where darkness is the only thing we see 
         G                 F       G 
and cold is all we have to breathe 
           Am              G

            C             F

E          Am 
we lost control.
