         E        E#7                 C#                    B

I've been obviously on the verge of a mental breakdown this week

        A                 B                   C#      A

Stuck between your dirty sheets and back-lit memories

              E            E#7                   C#                B

And I've been putting off things like getting my shit out of your apartment

          A          B                 C#                    A

I've been making up excuses about the things that you might need

              A          B              C#         E 

And I've been trying to find out where everyone's been

             A     B       C#      E

But they're nowhere and I'm nothing

              A         B       C#       E

And I've been trying to stay as busy as I can



   E E#7    C#               B

I finally broke on Christmas Eve

       A                  B                C#              A

In an Outback Steakhouse bathroom while my family ordered for me

             E      E#7          C#              B

Haven't been losing sleep, no I pass out almost instantly

    A                     B

The bad dreams get worse every week

   C#                      A      B

I think I'm losing a little of me

A                       B        C#

I'm getting better, but it's in small steps

A               B

I'm working on sleeping on the left

A            C#                   B

I just can't blame New York for this

        A                  B              C#

And so I'm down again, but this time it's different

  A            B

I'm mourning something that I miss

A                          C#        B

And that's better than being hopeless
