Note: Don't use a barre chord for D in the chorus - it sounds odd.

[Verse 1]
Cm
Don't mind the noise outside the door
Cm
It's just a phantom, nothing more
G# G Cm
No need to give yourself a scare
D# G#
When you glance and no one's there
G Cm
I don't wanna have to hurt you
Cm
It's not your fault I felt this rage
Cm G#
Just a child about your age
G Cm
But something drives me to this place
D# G#
I can see him in your face
G Cm
You'll never know the hell I've seen
[Chorus]
Cm Bb
Don't fear what's coming
Fm D# D
We can't fight off the urge inside
Cm Bb
It's dark and you're afraid of
G
The devils that come out at night
Cm Bb
Let's make this easy
Fm D# D
Soon you'll haunt these beasts you hated
Cm Bb
No need for sleep tonight
G D# D Cm
Sweet dreams are overrated
[Verse 2]
Cm
I'm just a whisper in the void
D# D G#
No one's there, you're paranoid
G Cm
I'm just a trick of your own mind
D# G#
Blink your eyes once and you'll find
G Cm
I'm just a ghost inside your head
Cm
Don't fear your fate that soon arrives
Cm G#
It's a deadly lullaby
G Cm
You'll be with us very soon
D# G#
Another spirit in the room
G Cm
Take your place among the lost
[Chorus]
Cm Bb
Don't fear what's coming

You can't wake

From this dream

No one will hear you screaming

So hold on

For the ride

I'll take you with me tonight
G#
This nightmare

This prison
Cm D#
Inside the suits we live in

Don't fear me
G
Together
Cm D D#
We'll have sweet dreams forever
