Verse:C G F The floor will have it's way it seems.Am G F It fights me like a trampoline.Am G F It won't let me on the ground,C G F So this time I'm not coming down.C G F No this time I'm not coming down.C G F I've been talking in my sleep.Am G F We once kissed goodnight, and here we speak.Am G F You loved me just so brutaly,C G F To have the bitter life wrung out of me.

(Chorus, as before)C G F And if I really thought I could,Am G F I'd give up your ghost for good,Am G F But I'm not sure it isn't you...C G F That keeps my ghost from leaving too.C G F But I don't miss you half as much,Am G F As who you made me think I was.Am G F When I could see myself the way you do.C G F And I could almost see myself in you.C G F I could almost see myself in you. Final chorus:G5 F C And this time I'm not coming down.Am G5 F No this time I'm not coming down.G5 F C This time I'm not coming down......trampoline...
