Intro: Bm E/D A/D

Bm E/D
I can't eat I can't sleep
A/D
I'm looking up at the satellite
Bm E/D
Where did we go wrong this time?
A/D
Whoa

Bm
Did you think this through? Do you have the facts?
E/D A/D
Oh I'm betting on a fight another heart attack
Bm E/D
All translation is lost, I'm so exhausted
A/D
I'm coming undone

Chorus:
Bm A/D
---- Sinking like a battleship
Bm A/D Bm
---- Am I ever gonna get through this?
Bm A/D
---- We're standing on a fault line
Bm A/D
---- Oh this happens all the time

Intro x2

Bm E/D
Well I can't think, I'm losing sleep
A/D
I'm staring up at the stars tonight
Bm E/D A/D
Where did we go wrong this time?

(Chorus)

Bm A/D
---- We're sinking like a battleship
Bm A/D Bm
---- We're sinking like a stone
A/D
We're barely hanging on
Bm A/D Bm
---- We're sinking like a stone
A/D (hold)
We're barely hanging on

Intro x2

Chorus (with last line)

Bm A/D
---- We're sinking like a battleship

Bm A/D

End on Bm.

Lead line for the chorus:
E|------------------------------|
B|------------------------------|
G|--7-7-7~----------------------|
D|--7-7-7~-----7-0-5-0-4-0-2-0--|
A|--5-5-5~-(0)------------------|
E|--7-7-7~----------------------|

You can also play the chords like this:
Bm E/D A/D
E|--0---0---0--|
B|--3---3---3--|
G|--2---2---2--|
D|--0---0---0--|
A|--2-------0--|
E|-------------|

But the A/D chord just sounds like regular D.

It's not exact but it works well for acoustic.
