When Does a Rumor Become Gospel

[Intro] Dm7  G7  A9  A9/C#

[First Part]

Dm7              G7        
    When does a rumour become 
    A9     A9/C#
gospel?
Dm7              G7             
    When does a habit take its 
A9     A9/C#
hold?
               Dm7            G7
When did the start become the end?
A9                    A9/C#
All my words staying silent
Dm7           G7          A9
    How do I find myself a savior?

[Pre-Chorus]

Dm7              G7            A9
    Pressure's up, systems down
             A9/C#
Never felt shaken as I do now
Dm7              G7               
    Curtain falls, the show must go 
A9
on

[Chorus]

C7M                               
    But I don't want to step 
       D7
outside my head
I'll stay uncomfortably numb here 
    G7M
instead
                      Em           
Turn the lights down low, should I 
         Am
stay or go?
                              D7
If I fix all the holes in my heart
Would it stop this world falling 
  G7M
apart?
              Em                 
'Cause these rumors got me fooled 
   Am  D7
again

[Second Part]

                            A9     
When did this room become so empty?
A9/C#

Dm7              G7         A9   
    When did a friend become a 
  A9/C#
foe?
          Dm7       G7
Talking to the enemy
A9                           A9/C#
All of the words whispered sweetly
Dm7            G7          
    How do I stop myself from 
    A9        A9/C#
listening?

[Pre-Chorus]

Dm7              G7            A9
    Pressure's up, systems down
             A9/C#
Never felt shaken as I do now
Dm7              G7               
    Curtain falls, the show must go 
A9
on

[Chorus]

C7M                               
    But I don't want to step 
      D7
outside my head
I'll stay uncomfortably numb here 
    G7M
instead
                      Em           
Turn the lights down low, should I 
         Am
stay or go?
                              D7
If I fix all the holes in my heart
Would it stop this world falling 
  G7M
apart?
              Em
'Cause these rumors got me fooled

[Bridge]

                      C7M
How do I move when I feel paralyzed?
                       D7
How do I dream when I can't sleep at
 night?
                      G7M
Try to scream but it don't make a 
sound
                          Em
I thought I'd be someone better by 
now
                      C7M
How do I move when I feel paralyzed?
                       D7
How do I dream when I can't sleep at
 night?
                      G7M
Try to scream but it don't make a 
sound
                          Em
I thought I'd be someone better by 
now

[Chorus]

Am/C                        
     But I don't want to step 
              D7
outside my head
I'll stay uncomfortably numb here 
    G7M
instead
                      Em        Am/C
Turn the lights down low, do I go?
                              D7
If I fix all the holes in my heart
Would it stop this world falling 
G7M
apart?
              Em
'Cause these rumors got me fooled 
again
