[Strophe]
   Em 
I open my eyes 
                                     G 
I try to see but I’m blinded by the white light 
         Em 
I can’t remember how 
         Em 
I can’t remember why 
      G             D 
I’m lying here tonight 
      C               D 
And I can’t stand the pain 
      Em               G 
And I can’t make it go away 
     C               D 
No I can’t stand the pain
[Refrain]
                         G 
How could this happen to me 
              Em 
I made my mistakes 
                     C 
I’ve got no where to run 
               D 
The night goes on 
              G 
As I’m fading away 
                  Em 
I’m sick of this life 
              C 
I just wanna scream 
                D        G 
How could this happen to me
[Strophe]
 Em 
Everybody’s screaming 
                                  G 
I try to make a sound but no one hears me 
     Em 
I’m slipping off the edge 
  
I’m hanging by a thread 
   G                    D 
I wanna start this over again 
   C         D           Em         G 
So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered 
    C          D 
And I can’t explain what happened 
    Em       G                          C 
And I can’t erase the things that I’ve done 
      D 
No I can’t
[Refrain]
                         G 
How could this happen to me 
              Em 
I made my mistakes 
                     C 
I’ve got no where to run 
               D 
The night goes on 
              G 
As I’m fading away 
                  Em 
I’m sick of this life 
              C 
I just wanna scream 
                D        G 
How could this happen to me
[Refrain]
              Em 
I made my mistakes 
                     C 
I’ve got no where to run 
               D 
The night goes on 
              G 
As I’m fading away 
                  Em 
I’m sick of this life 
              C 
I just wanna scream 
                D        G 
How could this happen to me
