[Intro]
E A F# E

[Verse 1]
Been staring at the wall today
F#m
To find some hidden meaning
C#m
My laundry’s clean, my mama called
B
To ask me how I’m feeling
E
I’ve been running out of thins to think
F#m
So what’s the point of dreaming
C#m
I called all my friends cause I can’t get
B
Along with all my demons

[Pre-Chorus]
A C#m B G#m
I’ve been watching from a distance
A C#m B
How the seasons change

[Chorus]
E
I’ve been lost, lost in the rhythm lately
F#m C#m
I don’t know, know how to dance alone
B
Know how to dance alone
E
I’ve been lost, lost in the rhythm lately
F#m C#m
I don’t know, know how to dance alone
B
Know how to dance alone

[Verse 2]
E
I’ve been staring at the wall today
F#m
Still looking for some meaning
C#m
I tried talking to myself for a change
B
To ask me how I’m feeling
E
I’ve been running out of room to think
F#m
I need a higher ceiling
C#m
Called all my friends cause I need help
B
Distract me from my demons

[Pre-Chorus]
A C#m B G#m
I’ve been watching from a distance
A C#m B
How the seasons change

[Outro]
E
(I’ve been lost, lost in the rhythm lately
A C#m
I don’t know, know how to dance alone
E
Know how to dance alone)
