1. There's an echo pulling out the meaning,
Am C
F
rescuing
a nightmare from a dream,
Am C
F
the
voices in my head are always screaming
Am C
F
that
none of this means anything to me.
Am
And it's a long way back from
seventeen,
C F - - - - - - - - - - C
the
whispers turn into a scream and I, I'm not coming home.
C - G Am
Save your breath, I'm nearly bored to death and fading fast,
F C
life
is too short to last long.
- G Am
Back on earth, I'm broken, lost
and cold and fading fast,
F
life
is too short to last long !

So let me buy you a drink, and
we'll pretend that you think
G C

I'm the man of your dreams come to life in a dive bar.
F
And we'll go over and over and
over,
G
C

we'll go over and over and over,
F
And we'll go over and over and
over,
G C
and
we'll go over and over and over,
