Circle The Drain Chords

(learned this from the home Tiny Desk concert)
 
(you can also use these chords in standard if you use standard tuning shapes for them)
 
 
[Intro]
D/A  G/E  E/D  Eb/D   x2
 
 
[Verse 1]
D/A         G/E           E/D
I wanna be calm like the soft
       G/E          D/A
Summer rain on your back
G/E                    E/D     Eb/D
Like the fall of your shoulders
D/A                  G/E            E/D
But everything just brings me back down
       G/E       D/A
To the cold hard ground
    G/E              E/D  Eb/D
And it keeps getting colder
 
 
[Verse 2]
D/A                 G/E           E/D
It's a feeling that boils in my brain
G/E                    D/A
I would dial back the flame
G/E                 E/D  Eb/D
But I'm not sure I'm able
D/A          G/E        E/D
I'm wobbling out on the wire
G/E                   D/A
And the lights could go out
G/E                 E/D   Eb/D
With the break of a cable
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C/F#                   E/D
Things feel that low sometimes
C/F#         E/D        G/E
Even when everything is fine
 
 
[Chorus]
D/A             G/E           E/D  Eb/D
Hey, I've been falling apart these days
D/A  G/E      E/D    Eb/D
Split open, watching my heart go
D/A        G/E        E/D  Eb/D
’Round and around, 'round and around
D/A       G/E       E/D    Eb/D
Circle the drain, I'm going down
 
 
D/A G/E E/D Eb/D
('Round and around and around and around
 
'Round and around and around and around)
 
 
[Verse 3]
D/A                 G/E          E/D
I'm trying to seem strong for my love
       G/E          D/A
For my family and friends
G/E              E/D  Eb/D
But I'm so tired of faking
D/A                      G/E
’Cause I'm chained to my bed when
        E/D
they're gone
G/E          D/A
Watching TV alone
G/E          E/D  Eb/D
’Til my body starts aching
 
 
[Verse 4]
D/A                   G/E        E/D
And I think there's a mold in my brain
G/E                   D/A
Spreading down all the way
G/E                E/D  Eb/D
Through my heart and my body
D/A                   G/E        E/D
'Cause I cling to the dark of my room
      G/E         D/A
And the days thin me out
G/E             E/D      Eb/D
Or just burn me straight through
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C/F#                   E/D
Things feel that low sometimes
C/F#         E/D        G/E
Even when everything is fine
 
 
[Chorus]
D/A             G/E           E/D  Eb/D
Hey, I've been falling apart these days
D/A  G/E      E/D    Eb/D
Split open, watching my heart go
D/A        G/E        E/D  Eb/D
’Round and around, 'round and around
D/A       G/E       E/D    Eb/D
Circle the drain, I'm going down
 
 
D/A G/E E/D Eb/D
('Round and around and around and around
 
'Round and around and around and around)
 
 
[Bridge]
C/F#                   E/D
Things feel that low sometimes
C/F#         E/D        G/E
Even when everything is fine
 
 
[Chorus]
D/A             G/E           E/D  Eb/D
Hey, I've been falling apart these days
 
D/A  G/E      E/D    Eb/D
Split open, watching my heart go
 
D/A        G/E        E/D  Eb/D
’Round and around, 'round and around
 
D/A       G/E       E/D    Eb/D
Circle the drain, I'm going down
 
 
D/A G/E E/D Eb/D
('Round and around and around and around
 
'Round and around and around and around)
 
 
D/A,      G/E,      E/D,     Eb/D
'Round and around, 'round and around
 
D/A,       G/E,   E/D,      Eb/D
Circle the drain, I'm going down
