[Verse]
G               Dm    Am   C
I'm going off the deep end
G      Dm Am        C
Barely     sleeping
G                   Dm
Ringing in my ears sounds
Am           C
 like singing
         G     Dm   Am       C
It's the only  thing I hear

             F C G
I'm drowning out
          F      C  G
Inside the sound

G            Dm  Am        C
I can't stop myself from
G               Dm
Thinking about you
Am          C
 all the time
G
I'm always trying to
Dm Am         C
 tune you out
    G              Dm Am
But I'm gonna let you in
        C
tonight

         F
When the sound of your
 voice comes through,
C           G
it's hardly there
         F              C  G
But it's all I care about
             F C G
I'm drowning out

Inside the sound
       F                C         G
I can't follow what you're saying
       F           C    G
I don't bother to try

Ringing in my ears sounds
Am           C
 like singing
         G     Dm   Am       C
It's the only  thing I hear

       F            C   G
I just cling to it
      F       C  G
I just listen    (Paul's in pieces)
       F
I just cling to it

Bеautiful things to me
   C
It sounds like
        Dm            G
 you're sеtting me up
    C
For beautiful dreams

G               Dm    Am   C
I'm going off the deep end
G      F Am        C
Barely     sleeping
G                   Dm
Ringing in my ears sounds
 Am           C
 like singing
         G     F   Am       C
It's the only  thing I hear
