D Bm A
I've woken up, it's 4AM
D Bm A
and I'm unable to breathe again
D Bm A
my lungs have given up on me
D Bm A
and my throat is collapsing
G
I will cough the night away
Bm A
I will cough all through the day
G
I won't stop, despite the medicine
Bm A
until 3AM the next morning
[Instrumental]
D Bm A (x4)
D Bm A
And I know you're not asleep yet
D Bm A
for God's sake, it's only 4AM
D Bm A
You're probably thinking about what you want to be
D Bm A
despite not knowing what that means
G
And you will think the night away
Bm A
And you will think all through the day
G
You won't sleep, despite the medicine
Bm A
until 3AM the next morning
D A
She's a social smoker
Bm G
I'm an asthma patient
D A Bm
She's experimenting with not breathing
G
and I want out
D A
She wants to live her life
Bm G
but doesn't know how
D A
well neither do I
Bm G
but I'm dealing with right now
D Bm A (x4)
D Bm A
She wants to move far away
D Bm A
but is worried she'll be out of place
D
and there's a look on her face
Bm A D Bm A
that says her heart's beginning to race
D Bm A
She says, "The way it is, makes me angry
D Bm A
and I don't want you to think of me badly"
D Bm A
but I swallow my pride and I say
D Bm A
"You gotta do what makes you happy"
G
I will cough the night away
