A                   D         B           A
  Violent dreams I awake in a state half asleep
A                    D             B            A
  Underneath stowed away it stills hides out of reach
A                           D           B          A
  Loud and cheap there's no point to compare or compete
A                    D              B
  Aching bones old receipts foreign change endless weeks

[Chorus]
A                   F#       G               B            A
  Don't jump the gun stay in front of the sun it will come
A                F#            G          B                 A
  I'm standing on a broken pier hanging on this stratosphere

| A | A | D | B | [x2]

A                   D                B      A
  Violent dreams my strength weakens when I weep
A                 D       B         A
  Underneath lucidly I'm aware I'm asleep
A                        D             B  A
  So obscene the way you walk all over me
A                            D                B
  I can't breathe when I sigh through my teeth

| A | A |

[Chorus]
A                   F#       G               B            A
  Don't jump the gun stay in front of the sun it will come
A                F#            G          B                 A
  I'm standing on a broken pier hanging on this stratosphere
A            F#                G              B          A
  Last resort pleasant thoughts too distraught to ignore
A              F#           G            B           A
  My nightmares still appear every glance everywhere

[Outro]

A    F#      A
     My only trait
A    F#   A
     Alienate
A    F#        A
     Those who say

A    F#       A
     I can't escape
