D
Lose my words
D
Lose my thoughts
D
Lose my dreams
A
a million different pieces
A
a million different things
       Em
That I can't keep together
Em
That can't seem to see
        D                A
As they tumble around me

Pre-Chorus:
D
I fall asleep to the sound of the sea
A          D                       A
a familiar ocean that's swallowing me
Em
In a whirlwind of wonder
                   D
Oh what can it be that I'm missing here
G
And I disappear

Chorus:
            Bm             A                 G
'Cause this world it keeps trying to pull me down
       Bm               A              G
But my feet, they won't ever find the ground
          Bm       A          G
'Cause my body is made out of sound
            E
And that's all I am

Verse 2:
D
Morning will break
D
And the winter will take
        A
What it wants of me slowly
            D
But I can't complain
           G         Em
'Cause I'd rather be lonely
Em
And cold, and awake
      G   D
Than asleep in a warm and a comfortable place

Pre-Chorus:
D
And oh, oh, where do I go from here
D
Please direct the melody in my ear
         G    Em                                 D
'Cause I have stepped deep into a song that I'd like to forget
       G       Gmaj7
And I disappear

Pre-Chorus:
          Bm              A                G
Well this world it keeps trying to pull me down
       Bm                A              G
But my feet, they won't ever find the ground
          Bm        A          G
'Cause my body is made out of sound
            E
And that's all I am

Bridge:
          Bm
And I can disappear
      A
Just disappear
      G
Just disappear
            Bm
Find my way out of here
        A
Out of here
        G
Out of here
            Bm
I can just disappear
      A
Just disappear
     G
Just disappear
