[E]
If you [E] twist and then turn away again
If you [B] tear yourself [E] in two again
If I could, [B] you know I [E] would
If I could, I [A] would [E] let it go
Surrender,
[A] dislocate
[E] [A]
[E] If I could, throw this [B] lifeless lifeline to the wind
I'd [E] leave this heart of clay, see you [A] walk, walk away
[E] Into the night and through the rain
Into the half-light and [A] through the flame
[E] If I could, through myself, set your [A] spirit free
[E] I'd leave your heart away, see you walk, [A] walk away
Into [E] the light and [A] through the day
[E] So let it go, I'm [A] so afraid to wait
[E] Let it go, I'm [A] so afraid to wait
I'm [E] wide awake, I'm wide awake
[B]
[E] I'm not sleeping,
[B] if you should ask then
[E] Maybe they'd tell you what I would say
True colors fly [B] in blue and black
Blue, silk and [E] sky and burn and fly
Killers crash, [Abm] collide and [E] bloodshot eyes
If I could, you know I [B] would
If I could, [A] I would [E] let it go
[A] Surrender, [E] desperation
Dislocation, [A] separation
Condemnation, [E] revelation Intemptation, [A] isolation
Desolation, [E] let it go
I'm [A] so afraid to wait
[E] Let it go, I'm so [A] afraid to wait
[E] I'm wide awake, [B] I'm [Bm] wide [B] awake
I'm not [E] sleeping
So let it go, [B]
surrender
[E] Let it go, surrender
I'm wide awake, I'm wide awake
[A]
[E]
I'm wide awake
