[Verse 1]
        Bm
Just in case, I will leave my things packed
   D            Bm
So I can run away
                             D
I cannot trust these voices
        Bm                                A
I don't have a line of prospects that can give some kind of peace
         Bm                                A
There is nothing left to cling to that can bring me sweet release
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          G       D
I have no fear of drowning
         A                Bm
It's the breathing that's taking all this work
 
[Chorus]
       G           A           Bm            A/C#        G
Do you know what I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"?
       A           Bm            A           Bm
What I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"
A/C#  D  Em  D/F#  G  D/F#  Em
Bm  A/C#  D  Em  D/F#  G  D/F#  Em
 
[Verse 2]
      Bm
Empty spaces with shadows hit by street lights
D                 Bm                             D
Warning signs and weight of tired conversations
       Bm                            A
In the absence of a shoulder, in the abscess of a thief
       Bm                                A
On the brink of this destruction, on the eve of bittersweet
 
[Pre-Chorus]
            G                D                A
Now all the demons look like prophets and I'm living out
Bm                      Bm/A
Every word they speak, (every word they speak)
Bm                      Bm/A
Every word they speak, (every word they speak)
G  A  Bm
 
[Chorus]
       G           A           Bm            A/C#         G
Do you know what I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"?
       A           Bm            A           G
What I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"
       A           Bm            A           Bm
What I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"

[Chorus]

Do you know what I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"?
       A           Bm            A           G
What I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"
       A           Bm            A           G
What I mean when I say, "I don't want to be alone"
        A             Bm          A
Alone, alone, I don't want to be alone
 
[Ending]
          G       D
I have no fear of drowning
         A                Bm
It's the breathing that's taking all this work

I resubmitted the tab and the formatting is still wrong. Why does it keep showing up that way?

The last A mentioned above(before the Interlude) should be Asus4. I wish we could edit our own submitted tabs...
