[Intro]
Dsus2  F#m   Aadd9  Bm7

[Verse 1]
Dsus2        F#m
 Movin' in a backwards motion
Aadd9               Bm7
 Trippin' down the streets we'd roam
Dsus2        F#m
 Fired at me left me frozen
Aadd9           Bm7
I'm numb to the cold
Dsus2          F#m
 Crashin' into your conclusion
Aadd9            Bm7
 Spun me like a spider's web
Dsus2            F#m
 Snappin' out of my delusion
Aadd9        Bm7
Back into my head

Fallin' in a forwards motion
Aadd9             Bm7
 Drivin' down the old dirt road
Dsus2          F#m
 Shaded by the burnt-out trees
