[A]Blacking in and out in a [Asus2]strange flat in east London.
A Dsus2
Somebody I don?t really know just gave me something to
A Asus2 A Dsus2
Help settle me down and to stop me from always thinking about you.
A Asus2 A
And you know your life is heading in a questionable direction when you?re up for days with strangers
And you [Dsus2]can?t remember anything
A Asus2 A Dsus2
Except the way you sounded when you told me you didn?t know what I should do.
[E]It?s a long road up to re[D]covery from [E]here, a long way back to the [D]light.
[E]A long road up to rec[D]overy from he[E]re, a long way to making it ri[D]ght.
[A]And I?ve been waking in the morning just like [Bm]every other day
And just like [Dbm]every boring blues song I get s[D]wallowed by the pain
And so I [A]fumble for your figure in the d[Bm]arkness just to make it[Dbm] go away.[D]
But you?re not [A]lying there any longer and I kno[Bm]w that that?s my fault
So I?ve been[Dbm] pounding on the floor and I?ve been c[D]rawling up the walls
And I?ve been [A]deepening my darkness with s[Bm]erotonin booste[Dbm]rs, cider and some kind [D]of smelling salts.
[E]It?s a long road up to [D]recovery from [E]here, a long way back to the [D]light.
[E]A long road up to reco[D]very from here,[E] a long way to making it [D]right.
And on the [F#m]first night we met you said ?well [D]darling, let?s make a [A]deal.
If [F#m]anybody ever asks us let?s jus[D]t tell them that we met i[A]n jail.?
And that?s the [F#m]story that I?m sticking to like a [D]stony-faced accomplice
But [A]tonight I need to hear some truth if I?m e[E]ver getting through this.
Yeah, you [F#m]once sent me a letter that said ?[D]if you?re lost at sea,
Close your [A]eyes and catch a tide, my dear, [E]and only think of me.?
Well [G]darling now I?m sinking I?m as [D]lost as lost can be
E A Bm Dbm D x2
And I was hoping you could drag me out from down here towards my recovery.
If you could [A]just give me a sign, yeah just a s[Bm]ubtle little glimmer,
Some s[Dbm]uggestion that you?d have me if I could [D]only make me better,
Then I would [A]stand a little stronger as I [Bm]walk a little taller a[Dbm]ll the time.[D]
Because I [A]know you are a cynic but I t[Bm]hink I can convince you
Yeah, ?cause [Dbm]broken people can get better i[D]f they really want to
Or at [A]least that?s what I have to tell m[Bm]yself if I am hoping to s[Dbm]urvive.[D]
[E]It?s a long road up to rec[D]overy from here, [E]a long way back to the [D]light.
[E]A long road up to rec[D]overy from here, a l[E]ong way to making it right[D].
[A]Darling, sweet lover, won?t you [Asus2]help me to recover,
A Dsus2
Darling, sweet lover, won?t you help me to recover,
[A]Darling, sweet lover, won?t you [Asus2]help me to recover,
[D]Darling, sweet lover, one day this will all be over.
