Tranquillizer

    [C]          [D]
eye-liner up you knock me down
    [Hm]                 [Em]
you hold your breath and I hold mine
[C]         [D]           [Hm]      
       [Em]
every step another step towards 
halfheartedness

[Am]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[C]                               
let us be happy while we're still 
    [D]
young

>>CHORUS<<

[G]                 [D]          
until it all seemed pointless we 
[C]
lifted up the mattress
     [Em]           [D]
from underneath the window seat
   [G]                 [D]
is this what checkmate means she 
said
[Am]               [F]            
lighting up again, yes I like the 
[D]
stillness

Continues after the ad
>>VERSE<<

sometimes we had endless hope
and tranquillizer eyes
feel so close it's hard to breathe
so close but we believe...

let us be happy while we're still 
young
let us be happy while we're still 
young

>>CHORUS<<

until it all seemed pointless we 
lifted up the mattress
from underneath the window seat
is this what checkmate means she 
said
lighting up again, yes I like the 
stillness


[G]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[F]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[Em]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[C]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[G]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[F]
let us be happy while we're still 
young
[C]       [D]
let us be happy

>>CHORUS<<
until it all seemed pointless we 
lifted up the mattress
from underneath the window seat
is this what checkmate means she 
said
lighting up again, yes I like the 
stalemate
