When i’m playing it i like to play Asus2 instead of the Am, you may want to
try both see which you like best. Pretty sure Am is how it’s really played
though.
Also if you don’t have a capo, you can play it in barre chords transposed 1 half step up.

Tuning: EADGBe (WITH CAPO ON FRET 1)

It’s in your eyes, a color fade out
Looks like a new transition
The starting up and shaking your ground
Turning your head to see a new day calling

Does it feel like a head to lean on?
A snapshot from where you were born
I’m looking for your hand in the rough
You’re caught in the wire
Well I’ll lift you out

Em C D Am (x4)

Leading on the action
Caught in a cell phones rays
Bleeding on a sofa
Staring at the waistline
He’s coming and she knows it
Even though she knows why
Footsteps in the hallway
Girl you haven’t got time

You gotta get out
Go far away
(x2)

Darkness in the bedroom
Maybe she is resting up
Maybe she was out late
Just come back from the club
I can’t hear her breathing
Something doesn’t seem right
Killer in the hallway
We’re living on a set time

We gotta get out
Go far away
(x2)

If your after chords I’d use the bass tab – this is mainly for the lead, although the main riff is the same.

Any comments appreciated, please rate.

[Verse 1]
When I’m falling down
Will you pick me up again
When I’m too far gone
Dead in the eyes of my friends

Will you, take me out of here
When I’m staring down the barrel
When I’m blinded by the lights
When I can not see your face
Take me out of here (x3)
Take me out of here

[Verse 2]
All I believe, and all I’ve known
Are being taken from me back at home
Yeah do your worst, when worlds collide
Let their fear collapse, bring no surprise

Take me out of here

(2x):
Feed the fire, break your vision
Throw your fists up, come on with me
Feed the fire, break your vision
Throw your fists up, come on with me

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
Just stay where you are.
Let your fear subside
Just stay where you are
If there’s nothing to hide

[Pre-Chorus]
Feed the fire, break your vision
Throw your fists up, come on with me

(2x):
Feed the fire, break your vision
Throw your fists up, come on with me
Feed the fire, break your vision
Throw your fists up, come on with me
