Verse 1:

Asus               Em
How much would you bet?

Asus                 Em
That if i tried hard enough.

        Asus     Em            
I would spontane-ously combust.

Asus    Em


Asus                Em
I wish I could disappear,


Asus              Em        Asus     Em
and run away from all of my fears,

                     Asus        Em
I think I'm coming undone...

Asus             Em
Ba ba da da, ba ba, ba da da dah.

G
So stay the night, 

Gm                      Bm
I promise, that I won't bite.

'Cause without you there

Gm                                   Bm        
I don't think that I, could close my eyes.


Verse 2:

Asus                 Em
How do I end up this way?

Asus                  Em
A constant knot in my gut.
 
          Aus       Em           Asus    Em
Tied with uncertain-ty, and with lust.

Asus             Bm
A classic case I suppose.

Asus              Bm               Asus        
A haunted man who can't outrun his ghosts.

Bm
They're in my skin and my bones.


Chorus:

G
So stay the night, 

Gm                      Bm
I promise, that I won't bite.

'Cause without you there

Gm                                   Bm        
I don't think that I, could close my eyes.
