Movements - The Grey Chords

[Intro]
C#m A C#m A F#m
 
 
[Verse 1]
C#m        A
Wait for a signal
       C#m
Losing faith
             A     F#m
Stuck in the middle
        C#m
And I'm searching
             A
for a way out
             C#m
But six feet deep
                     A
I've dug my grave now
        F#m
There's no way out
 
 
[Instrumental]
C#m A C#m A
 
 
[Verse 2]
           C#m
I feel the salt beneath my skin
         A
And it's boiling up again
            C#m
I can't let go and I'm wearing
                       A
thin These knots in my throat
coil and constrict
 
 
[Refrain]
             C#m
And it's the shortening of
        B/D# E    A
the days      The dark that
             F#m B        C#m
seems to grip     All the ice
              B/D# E
that fills my veins And this
A                      F#m B
guilt that always trips
 
 
[Chorus 1]
C#m E A
       I've felt so grey and out
        C#m E A
of place       Bent out of shape
                    C#m E
but stuck in my ways
A
  And I've been searching
               F#m
for the answers   Will
         C#m     E
I always be this way?
A
  And when I call out
will you answer?
F#m
   Cause I've been screaming
    C#m         E
but nothing has changed
A
  Nothing has changed
 
 
[Post Chorus]
C#m A C#m A
 
 
[Verse 3]
           C#m
I feel the cold against my face
          A
And it's enough to keep me sick
       C#m
So I'm left with this bitter
                    A
taste a spoonful of sugar
could never fix
 
 
[Verse 4]
             C#m
And it's the shortening of
                 A
the days and The dark that
seems to grip I try to
C#m
go and it pulls me in
            A
I'm sick of swallowing
medicine to feel something
 
 
[Chorus 2]
C#m E A
       I've felt so grey and out
        C#m E A
of place       Bent out of shape
                    C#m E
but stuck in my ways
A
  And I've been searching
               F#m
for the answers   Will
         C#m     E
I always be this way?
A
  And when I call out
will you answer?
F#m
   Cause I've been screaming
    C#m         E      A
but nothing has changed
A
  Nothing has changed

[Outro] Patrick Miranda Speaks
C#m
   And it's getting harder
      B/D#           E
to pretend like I'm okay
                  A
When there's this constant
               F#m
reminder being drilled into
   B        C#m
my brain I still believe in
                B/D#
happiness and I want to find
  E       A
a way But lately my whole world
         F#m              B
is being swallowed by the grey
    C#m
For now there's comfort in the
      B/D#               E
quiet solitude and rainy days
            A
I've got my sadness to a science
          F#m            B
all I can do is hope for change
        C#m
There's comfort in the quiet
    B/D#           E
solitude and rainy days
     A
I've got my sadness to a science
          F#m
all I can do is hope for change
