[Intro]
| Cadd9 | Am | Em | G |


[Verse]
              Cadd9                   Am
Put down your things and rest a while
               Em                   G
You know we've both nowhere to go
      Cadd9               Am
Yeah, daddy had to crash
              Em                         G
He was always halfway there, you know


[Bridge]
                   Fadd9                    G
And no, I don't pretend there's any more of that
             Fadd9                   G
They say one day, you'll look up and laugh


[Chorus]
             C    Em  Am7  C       | Fadd9 | Gsus4 |
And hear the same sad echo when you walk
          C    Em  Am7  C       | Fadd9 | Gsus4 |
Yeah, the same sad echo when you talk loud and clear
         F                    G          | C | Am | Em | G |
It's the same as the same sad echo around here


[Verse]
  C                         Am
I promise you, this winter
       Em                      G
I will worship you like gold
    C                        Am
And ride your train forever
         Em                   G
Electric fortunes to be told


[Bridge]
                    Fadd9                G
And I don't want to question or even celebrate
                Fadd9                       G
All the joy you took and then gave back too late


[Chorus]
         C    Em  Am7  C       | Fadd9 | Gsus4 |
It's the same sad echo when you lie
         C    Em  Am7  C        Fadd9     Gsus4
It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear
         F                    G          | C | Am | Em | G |
It's the same as the same sad echo around here


[Verse] variation
                      C
Well, I woke up right here
             Am
In a pool of sweat
              Em        G
With a box of pills and you
                            C
Yeah, and I'm gonna keep my head
                  Am
I'm gonna keep my cool
              Em               G
Oh, I'm so in love with you


[Bridge]
                   Fadd9                  G
Yes and in another world nothing was like this
                      Fadd9                 |  G  |  %  |
There may have been a girl, there never was a kiss


[Verse]
    C                       Am7
The poison came in liquid
        Em                  G
She was naked all the time
    C                        Am
And no one could explain it
       Em                      G
It was all between the lines


[Bridge]
                    Fadd9           G
And I don't seem to trust anyone no more
                    Fadd9      |  G  |  %  |
It could be faith I'm just not sure


[Chorus]
         C    Em  Am7  C    | Fadd9 | Gsus4 |
It's the same sad echo every day
          C    Em  Am7   C      Fadd9         Gsus4
Yeah, the same sad echo another way, when you call
         F                    G          | C | Am | Em | G | C | Am | Em | G |
It's the same as the same sad echo most of all


[Verse] variation
                   C
Well, you just got tired
              Am
You just gave in
            Em
You took it hard
              G
Then you just quit
           C
You let me down
                Am
You dropped the ball
         Em                   Em
You fell on your face most of all


[Bridge]
                    Fadd9            G
And I don't want to mean anything to you
                    Fadd9           |  G  |  %  |
And I don't want to tempt you to be true



[Chorus]
         C    Em  Am7  C    | Fadd9 | Gsus4 |
It's the same sad echo comin' down
          C    Em  Am7  C    Fadd9       Gsus4
Yeah, the same sad echo all around in my ears
         F                    G          [ C ]
It's the same as the same sad echo around here
