V1: So I'm there, charging around with a juganaut brow
C/D# G/E
Over draft speeches and deadlines to make
C/D# G/E
Cramming commitments like cats in a sack
C/D# G/E
Telephone burning, purposeful gait
C/D# G/E
When out of a doorway the tentacles stretch
C/D# G/E C/D#
Of a song that i know, and the world moves in slow - mo
G/D C/D# (G)
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the day
(G) D#/C G D#/C G
C1: And its you, and its me, and we're sleeping through the day
D#/C G D#/C (G/D)
And I'm five years ago and three thousand miles away

V2: Do i have time? a man of my caliber stood in the street
C/D# G/E
Like a sleepwalking teenager, no
C/D#
And i dealt with this years ago
G/E C/D#
I took a hammer to every momento
G/E C/D#
But image on image like beads on a rosary
G/E C/D#
Pull through my head as the music takes hold
G/E C/D#
And the sickener hits i can work till i break
G/E C/D# (G)
But i love the bones of you, that i will never escape
(G) D#/C G D#/C G
C2: And its you, and its me, and we're sleeping through the day
D#/C G D#/C G
And I'm five years ago and three thousand miles away
D#/C G D#/C G
And i can't move my arm, through fear that you will wake
D#/C G D#/C (C5)
And I'm five years ago and three thousand miles away
