First Verse:

         G
I'd be hanging on their words

            C9
Like they almost meant a thing

         G                          C9
In the only lullaby I heard,  The sirens blaring,

               Am    (these Am's may be replaced with an Asus if desired)
singing me to sleep

E|-----------------------------------| C9                            
B|-----------------------------------| Holding my loved one tight... 
G|-----------------------------------|                               
D|-----------3---------5-------------|                               
A|--0-2-0-------0-2-0------0-2-0-----|                               
E|-------------------------------3-1-|                               


          G
On the softness of her laugh,

          C9
I could almost make my bed

          G
But the racket of her absence join

      C9                           Am
The sirens blaring, ringing in my head

          C9                     Am
Holding nothing tight, holding nothing tight

         C9           (Dsus)
With my eyes so wide


Chorus:

                      F/C
In a house without a back door

                     C/G
I was looking for a fire escape

                            F/C
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards

               C/G
Just trying to get away

           F/C            C/G           F/C
From this sleeplessness, Sleeplessness, sleeplessness


Second Chorus:

          G                           C9
She'd be hanging on my words like I almost meant a thing

              G
And I'd give anything not to let her down

      C9                                 Am
to finally sleep through just one noisy night

E|------------------------------------| C9                      
B|------------------------------------| Holding her so tight... 
G|------------------------------------|                         
D|-----------3---------5--------------| Am                      
A|--0-2-0-------0-2-0------0-2-0------|                         
E|--------------------------------3-1-| Holding her so tight... 

        C9            (Dsus)
But my eyes are wide

Chorus: (same as before)

In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness, Sleeplessness, sleeplessness


Bridge:
       Am                                              C9
'Cause my mind just can't stop moving, I think I know why

F/C  C/G            F/C  C/G
Oooh,       I know why

        F             C            F
It's sad, but I'm a sucker for a kind word

               C            F
And I'll just hurt until I find one

           C                 Am
I'll just hurt until I find one

And I've been trying all the windows
And I've been running up the staircase
In a house without a back door...

    F/C              C/G          F/C         G/C
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness, sleeplessness
