Intro:
D G x4
Verse 1:
ReDmember coming home at Gfour in the morning
DBefore the sun was Gup
DBack when the east was a Gfire of gold
Just Dwaiting for the rest of the Gsky to fall in Dlove
YeaGh
Our Dhope is just a metaphor,G of something better
For Dall of our dreams toGnight
And Dfear is just a shadow ofG the things that matter the Dmost
And I fear that I'm Glosing hope tonight
Chorus:
DOh oh
I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh oh
Staring up at the ceiling
GOh oh
It's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
DOh oh
You wouldn't believe me
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
GOh oh
The words that I wanted to say
I feel them slipping away
D G x4
Verse 2:
ReDmember that kid with the quivering lip
Whose heart was on his sleeve like a first aid kit
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Remember that kid, didn't know when to quit
I still lose my breath when I think about it
Oh, where'd you go?
(Oh Gwhere'd you go?)
Chorus:
DOh oh
I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh oh
Staring up at the ceiling
GOh oh
It's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
DOh oh
You wouldn't believe me
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
GOh oh
The words that I wanted to say
I feel them slipping away
Bridge:
Bm I know this isn't what you Dwanted
Past words in the present are Ghaunting us now
And on and on and on and on
Bm My heartbeat could tell you it's Durgent
I try to shout but the Gwords don't come out
Chorus:
DOh oh
I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh oh
Staring up at the ceiling
GOh oh
It's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
DOh oh
You wouldn't believe me
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
GOh oh
The words that I wanted to say
I feel them slipping away
D G x8
