INTRO: Am E* Dsus2 E**
Am E*
Who put the mess in your head?
Dsus2 E**
Filtering the sense of all you could have said
Am E*
Who stole the words from your mouth?
Dsus2 E**
So twisted in contagion and reaching out
Fmaj7 E7
If this is a lullaby then
Am E**
Why am I not sleeping easy?
Fmaj7 E7
If you leave me alone, I will come home
Am E**
Dragging my tales behind me
Am
Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
F E7
When nothing is left
Am E**
There is always us
F E7
When nothing is left
Am E**
There is always us
Am riff (see below)
Am E*
If I could sing you to sleep
Dsus2 E**
Lay you down and pray that you're my soul to keep
Am E*
I would be all that you'd need
Dsus2 E**
Wider eyes oblivious to everything
Fmaj7 E7
If this is a lullaby then
Am E**
Why am I not sleeping easy?
Fmaj7 E7
If you leave me alone, I will come home
Am E**
Dragging my tales behind me
Am
Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
F E7
When nothing is left
Am E**
There is always us
F E7
When nothing is left
Am E**
There is always us
Am
Sweetheart, don't hang me out to dry
F E7
When nothing is left
Am E**
There is always us
F E7
When nothing is left
Am E**
There is always us

I think, from memory the Down/Up stroke is only played sometimes,
I just play it this way always as I think it sounds pretty good.
