E                                                          Ab
I've been sleeping without memory
Ab                      
I think I'll lie a little longer
A                                            E
Wait for the crowds to go
                   B                                       A            
Maybe I'll die in this unholy mass
                      E
And I'll be free

E                                                                           Ab
Yes that's what they say that I would be
Ab
When we came to watch the world be over
                                              A
But there's too many fools
                                    E
On this boat that made
     B                                A
I can hardly see the water


Chorus:

B
What's happened to me
                A
I was down on my knees
A
I was praying to leave
       E                                                            B
But I never know when I've gone too far

B
This disaster in me
               A
What a beautiful dream
A
That told me I'd be cleaner
E                                               B
Told me I'd be closer to God


Interlude: A E Ab A 


E
Oh, the birds of paradise
                           Ab
Came to me yesterday
Ab
Laughed when they told me my fate
                  A                                        E
We'd be cold, we'd be tired, but we could breathe
                                               B                         A
And one day I'm gonna leave this place
