Intro: Ebm
 
Verse 1:
Ebm              Gb              B   Gb Bbm
Don't take yourself so seriously
            Ebm                    Gb               B   Gb Bbm
Look at you all dressed up for someone you never see
       Ebm         Gb        B             Gb
You're here for a reason but you don't know why
       Ebm        Gb          B           Gb
You're split and uneven, your hands to the sky
    B
Surrender yourself
 
Chorus:
             Ebm         Db     Gb                           Bb
And I wonder why I tear myself down to be built back up again
                 B       Ab
Oh, I hope somehow, I'll wake up young again
Ebm             Db    Gb                               Bb
All that's left of myself, holes in my false confidence
                      B              Db
And now I lay myself down and hope I wake up young again
 
Post-chorus:
Ebm Db Gb Bb B
 
       Db
Hope I wake up young again
 
Verse 2:
Ebm             Gb             B Gb Db
Don't let those demons in again
                Ebm          Db   Gb                  B Gb Db
I fill the void up with polished doubt, fake sentiment
     Ebm   B  Gb
Surrender yourself
 
Chorus:
             Ebm        Db     Gb                            Bb

               B         Db
Oh, I hope somehow, I'll wake up young again
Ebm              Db    Gb                               Bb
All that's left of myself, holes in my false confidence
                     B              Db
And now I lay myself down and hope I wake up young again

Ebm             Db    Gb                               Bb
