A#m
Stop trying, be nothing
          F#                D#m
Have your own mind, do your own thing
       A#m
Forget friends, forget dreams
         F#                        A#m
Rip your expectations apart at the seams
                     F#        D#m
You don’t need to be anyone or anything
            A#m
You’re your own, you’re yourself
        F#                             A#m
You are nothing and you’re everything itself
    G#                    F#
The light spills from the window and dances on your skin
A#m       G#         F#
You are a story and I am the beginning


[Chorus]
A#m       C#       F#
Say those words to me
           D#m
(Say those words to me)
A#m      C#       F#
Say them like you mean them
          D#m
(Say them like you mean them)
        A#m          C#
Nothing like playing dead
           F#       D#m       A#m
You’re the apple on top of my head
   C#        F#             D#m         A#m
So just keep still, I’m not holding my breath


[Verse 2]
A#m            C#     F#            D#m
Light from the window shines in the dusk glow
A#m          C#           F#         D#m       A#m
Skin cold as the snow but softer and paler still
            F#                    D#m              A#m
You’ve been drinking, you’ve been drinking way too much
          C#                  F#               A#m  G# F#
I’ve been thinking, I’ve been thinking way too much

A#m G# F#

[Chorus]
A#m       C#       F#
Say those words to me
           D#m
(Say those words to me)
A#m      C#       F#
Say them like you mean them
          D#m
(Say them like you mean them)
        A#m          C#
Nothing like playing dead
           F#       D#m       A#m
You’re the apple on top of my head
   C#        F#             D#m
So just keep still, I’m not holding my breath


[Outro]
         A#m                C#
From the cold nights to the big fights
     F#              D#m             A#m           F#            D#m
It’s worth it just so I can see you smile and that glint in your eye
         A#m                C#
From the cold nights to the big fights
     F#              D#m            A#m            F#            D#m
It’s worth it just so I can see you smile and that glint in your eye
