Em                 Am 
Long before I ever saw your face 
B                 Em 
I got to know you in a dream 
Am                       Em 
But things aren't always what they seem 
     F#                B 
I've learned along the way 
Em                          Am 
Just can't stop myself from breaking down 
B                           Em 
I'm just no good unless you come around 
Am            Em 
I turn into a monster 
F#             B 
All my friends agree

   E   Eb         D        A 
So goodnight, I'm going to bed 
    C         G         A    B 
I'm falling upstairs to meet you 
     E Eb        D              A 
I'll wakeup with memories in my head 
    C              G 
I'm somewhere else instead 
    A           B 
I'm falling upstairs to meet you

Em                       Am 
You came to me from some secret place

Am                   Em 
Just like an antique melody 
    F#            B 
Too sad for me to play 
Em                          Am  
I hope you'll wait for me behind closed eyes 
B                              Em 
I know I'll search for you all through the night 
Am                               Em 
Till when the dawn breaks in and throws it's light 
 F#        B 
Around the room 

Chorus 

Outro: 
Em-Am
