Intro: D

Verse 1:
D            A    Bm
 Humid fall, your midnight call
A     G             A  Bm
Sweet pool of sweat on skin
D             A   Bm
Sharing smoke and Diet Coke
   A G         A        Bm
The  bed we're sleeping in
D         A   Bm
Suddenly, you turned to me
  A   G       A       Bm
While chewing on your lip
D              A  Bm
Blueish smile, so juvenile
A   G             A  Bm
But then we start to kiss

Chorus:
Em            D A                 Bm
  And I wake up, what a beautiful dream
                G
When you get so close, you can taste it
Em             D    A                       Bm
  But it’s not real long, just an hour of relief
               G
'Til my eyes adjust to the lighting

Verse 2:
D           A  Bm          A  G             A   Bm
I'd re-gift my loneliness, my brain half-melted down
D             A    Bm           A G         A     Bm
All that weed from seventeen has  caught up to me now
D         A Bm           A   G               A    Bm
Every kid I grew up with has lost their childhood house
D         A    Bm           A    G         A    Bm
No way to make sense of it, it’s why I'm making sound

Chorus:
Em            D A                   Bm
  Let me wake up from this horrible dream
                 G
Where what feels true is nothing
Em               D  A                Bm
  And there's no one at the top to believe
       A      G
What a way to feel in your twenties
Em           D    A
  Do we stay numb?
                          Bm
But you can't when you're seeing
                 G
How they all get off on our grieving
Em             D    A                 Bm
  I don't know love, how to live in extremes
                  G
But we're made to try it through humming

Bridge:
Bm       A
  Mm-mm, mm-mm
   G      Em
Mm-mm, mm-mm
   Bm     A
Mm-mm, mm-mm (Mm-mm)
   G      Em
Mm-mm, mm-mm

Verse 3:
D             A   Bm
I'm convinced our sinking ship
  A  G          A    Bm
Will sing as it goes down
D               A   Bm
Haunting hymns keep echoing
 A G            A   Bm
Af-ter we’re in the ground

Chorus:
Em                 D A                 Bm
  And they’ll wake up to this horrible scene
                   G
Where they left us out, here for drowning
Em             D    A                      Bm
  And it's our blood on their hands, never clean
                   G
Never clean, never clean, never clean

Outro:
  Em D  A Bm G
Never (Ooh)
      Em  D  A Bm G
Never clean (Ooh)
      Em
Never clean (Ooh)
D     A
Never clean
  Bm  G
Never
