[Verse]
 
  F#m11          E     Bsus4                    F#m11
  Throw away the radio suitcase that keeps you awake
           E              Bsus4                   F#m11
  Hide the telephone, the telephone, telephone in case
      E           Bsus4                       F#m11
  You realize that sometimes you're just not okay
      E              Bsus4                                    F#m11
  You level off, you level off, you level off, and it's not alright now
      Asus2   E            Bsus4               F#m11
  You need to understand there's nothing strange about this
   Asus2                      Bsus4
  You need to know your friends, you need to know that
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
  Asus2                 E                  Asus2
  I'll be waving my hand, watching you drown
 
               Bsus4               F#m11 F#7add11
  Watching you scream quiet or loud
 
 
[Chorus]
 
  C#sus4     Aadd9     E    Bsus4
  And maybe you should sleep
  C#sus4      Aadd9        E  Bsus4
  And maybe you just need a friend
  Asus2      C#sus4    Bsus4              F#m11
  As clumsy as you've been there's no one laughing
  Asus2        E       Bsus4  F#m11
  You will be safe in here
  Asus2        E      Bsus4  F#m11
  You will be safe in here
  Asus2       E       Bsus4
  You will be safe in here
 
 
[Verse]
 
  F#m11           E        Bsus4                        F#m11
  Throw away this very old shoelace, it tripped you again
          E        Bsus4                                      F#m11
  Try and shrug it off, shrug it off, shrug it off, it's only skin now
      Asus2        E             Bsus4         F#m11
  You need to understand there's nothing fake about this
      E              Bsus4
  You need to let me in
 
  I'm watching you and
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
  Asus2                 E                  Asus2
  I'll be waving my hand, watching you drown
               Bsus4                F#m11 F#7add11
  Watching you scream, no one's around
 
 
[Chorus]
 
  C#sus4     Aadd9     E    Bsus4
  And maybe you should sleep
  C#sus4      Aadd9        E  Bsus4
  And maybe you just need a friend
  Asus2      C#sus4    Bsus4              F#m11
  As clumsy as you've been there's no one laughing
  Asus2        E       Bsus4  F#m11

The chords in the second half of the chorus are incorrect. This is how it's played: Asus2 C#sus4 Bsus4 F#m11 As clumsy as you've been there's no one laughing Asus2 E Bsus4 F#m11 You will be safe in here Other than that, very nice job.
