Damocles Cifras

[Verse 1]
      Emaj7                     Amaj7
Well, I've  been waking up under blades, blue blossom days
        Emaj7                Amaj7
If only Damocles would hit me back
   Emaj7                Amaj7
No alabaster carvings or faces on a farthing
         Emaj7                       Amaj7
Would prevent  my head from fading to black
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                  Emaj7           Amaj7
And it feels like falling into the sea
           Emaj7              Amaj7
From outer space in seconds to me
              C#m               Amaj7
And I play discordant days on repeat
           B             Amaj7
Until they look like harmony
 
 
[Chorus]
         A
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called
B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?
C#m
Come up for air and choke on it all
                                  E
No one else knows that I've got a problem
A
What if I can't get up and stand tall?
E
What if the diamond days are all gone
    B
And who will I be when the empire falls?
                                 Emaj7 Amaj7
Wake up alone and I'll be forgotten
 
 
[Verse 2]
Emaj7 Amaj7           Emaj7
            Oh well, I know  I should be touring
  Amaj7
I know these chords are boring
      Emaj7                      Amaj7
But I can't always be killing the game
   Emaj7                 Amaj7
No golden grand pianos or voices from the shadows
        Emaj7                Amaj7
Will do anythin' but feel the same
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                  Emaj7           Amaj7
And it feels like falling into the deep
               Emaj7            Amaj7
From somewhere way   up over the peaks
              C#m               Amaj7
And I play discordant days on repeat
          B               Amaj7
Until the tape runs out on me
 
 
[Chorus]
         A
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called
B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?
C#m
Come up for air and choke on it all
                                  E
No one else knows that I've got a problem
A
What if I can't get up and stand tall?
E
What if the diamond days are all gone
    B
And who will I be when the empire falls?
Wake up alone and I'll be forgotten
 
 
[Bridge]
    F#m    C#m            E            B
And nobody told me I'd be begging for relief
             A         B                  F#m
When what is silent to you feels like it's screaming to me
      F#m    C#m             E         B
Well, nobody told me I'd get tired of myself
        A              B             F#m
When it all looks like heaven, but it feels like hell
 
 
[Chorus]
         A
When the river runs dry and the curtain is called
B
How will I know if I can't see the bottom?
C#m
Come up for air and choke on it all
                                  E
No one else knows that I've got a problem
A
What if I can't get up and stand tall?
E
What if the diamond days are all gone
    B
And who will I be when the empire falls?
                                 Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7 C#m Amaj7 B Amaj7
Wake up alone and I'll be forgotten
 
 
[Outro]
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7 B Amaj7
