Play Dead

                    F#m        C#m
You know the way my blood runs
                         E    B
Cause darlin’ you’re the only one
                 F#m          C#m
Can you and I go somewhere?
                    E    B
Go somewhere we can be alone
                    F#m  C#m
Lying like John and Yoko
            E          B
Or fake our deaths and leave
                       F#m      C#m
Am I tripping, are you with me?
                         E    B
Cause darlin’ you’re the only one

[Pre-Chorus]
    F#m            C#m
The world is going mad
        E          B
You and I can hide away
        F#m          C#m
I can’t stand the TV screen
        E
Turn it off, pull the plug
         B
They can try, they won’t find us

[Chorus]
F#m                 C#m
Slow down your heartbeat
E                         B
Close your eyes and don’t speak
F#m               C#m
And lay with my body
E          B
Play dead, play dead with me
F#m          C#m
No need to escape
       E            B
We can find our own way
           F#m           C#m
You got me hiding in cupboards

E          B
Play dead, play dead with me

[Verse 2]
                    F#m     C#m
We’ll stock up some rations
                    E          B
So we don’t have to leave this room
                          F#m     
I’m dead, don’t care what happens
C#m

                  E        B
As long as I’m in here wth you

[Pre-Chorus]
          F#m            C#m
Cause the world is going mad
        E              B
You and I should hide away
        F#m           C#m
I can’t stand the TV screen
        E
Turn it off, pull the plug
         B
They can try, they won’t find us

[Chorus]

F#m                 C#m
Slow down your heartbeat
E                         B
Close your eyes and don’t speak
F#m               C#m
And lay with my body
E          B
Play dead, play dead with me
F#m          C#m
No need to escape
       E            B
We can find our own way
           F#m           C#m
You got me hiding in cupboards
E          B
Play dead, play dead with me

[Bridge]
                    F#m   C#m
You know that I was quiet
                    E       B
We’ll walk outside into the show
                     F#m       C#m
We’ll run a light in thousands
                E               B
Cause everybody else is growing old

[Chorus]
F#m                 C#m
Slow down your heartbeat
E                         B
Close your eyes and don’t speak
F#m               C#m
And lay with my body
E          B
Play dead
F#m                 C#m
Slow down your heartbeat
E                         B
Close your eyes and don’t speak
F#m               C#m
And lay with my body
E          B
Play dead, play dead with me
F#m          C#m
No need to escape
       E            B
We can find our own way
           F#m           C#m
You got me hiding in cupboards
E          B
Play dead, play dead with me
F#m            C#m
Play dead with me
E          B
Play dead, play dead with me
