to get it all to work out smoothly.]
[Verse]
Gm
I've got a new disease in me,
I've got a friend that's losing sleep,
Gsus4
I take it hard, it's hard to take,
Eb Cm
I'm wide awake,
N.C. Gm
I’m wide a-awake.
Gm
I want confessions, discretion's not what I need to sell,
Gm Gsus4
I never needed a reason for keeping secrets from
Eb
myself and now
Cm Gm
That's just how I tell I'm wide awake
Eb Cm
I'll wreck this if I have to
Gm
(Tell me what good would that do?)
Eb Cm Gm
I'll wreck this if I have to
Gm [building]
(I’ll be so good to you,)
(i’ll be so good to you.)
Eb Cm Gm
You get separated, somebody's
Eb
Gone,
Cm Gm
And I don't know how this is
Eb
Wrong,
Cm Gm
I'm so frustrated, falling behind,
Eb Cm Gm
You were a friend of mine.
Gm
(O-ohhhhh, o-ohhhhh)

All my indecision, all of my excess,
