[Verse]
E             Emaj7sus2
Held up in my room
                  E6sus2  E6sus
It’s just another Monday
         E                 Emaj7sus2
Then you burst through the door and
                     E6sus2  E6sus
you tell me that you love me
              E
But there’s a madness
        Emaj7sus2
in your eyes
           E6sus2       E6sus
And you’re trying to disguise
            E      Emaj7sus2
That you’re really not alright
E6sus2  E6sus
    E         Emaj7sus2
Now four bare walls
   E6sus2    E6sus
surround you
       E             Emaj7sus2
You’re going through hell
                     E6sus2
Can’t seem to find a way
       E6sus
through
E                 Emaj7sus2
Floating down the Styx
       E6sus2         E6sus
Please tell me it’s a trick
            E
Because you like
              Emaj7sus2
to joke around
       E6sus2
Please tell me that
              E6sus
you’re joking now

[Pre-Chorus]
         E6sus2            E6sus
And that you’ll get out of this
     E6sus2            E6sus
That you’ll get out of this

[Chorus]
E Emaj7sus2 E6sus2 E6sus
E Emaj7sus2 E6sus2 E6sus
E      Emaj7sus2 E6sus2
The    strange   nights,
                E6sus
they’re messing with your mind
E              Emaj7sus2
But they don’t scare you
    E6sus2           E6sus
You don’t want to be left behind
E             Emaj7sus2 E6sus2 E6sus
  No, I don’t recognise you
E              Emaj7sus2
   No, I don’t recognise
   E6sus2  E6sus
   you

[Verse](Actually just bass and drums)
E             Emaj7sus2
Held up in my room
                  E6sus2  E6sus
It’s just another Friday
     E           Emaj7sus2
Then you call me up and you
                  E6sus2  E6sus
tell me there’s a party
    E               Emaj7sus2
But something isn’t right
            E6sus2             E6sus
You did the same shit last night
    E            Emaj7sus2
But you say that you’re
  E6sus2 E6sus
alright
E        Emaj7sus2  E6sus2  E6sus
Now your head   is  reeling
E             Emaj7sus2
The walls are melting
       E6sus2  E6sus
You’re losing feeling
           E            Emaj7sus2
But do you want to escape
              E6sus2  E6sus
What needs to go away?
    E
Why do you want
              Emaj7sus2
to waste your time?
    E6sus2                   E6sus
Why do you want to lose your mind?

[Pre-Chorus]
    E6sus2            E6sus
And you won’t even try
   E6sus2            E6sus
No you won’t even try

[Chorus]
E      Emaj7sus2 E6sus2
The    strange   nights,
                E6sus
they’re messing with your mind
E              Emaj7sus2
But they don’t scare you
    E6sus2           E6sus
You don’t want to be left behind
E             Emaj7sus2
No, I don’t recognise you
E6sus2  E6sus
E              Emaj7sus2
No, I don’t recognise you
E6sus2  E6sus
