Narcolepsy

[Intro]
Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9 Aadd9
Dadd9 Aadd9
Dadd9
Aadd9              Dadd9
     I'm on a train

[Verse 1]
Aadd9            Dadd9               Aadd9
     But there's no   one at the helm
              Dadd9            Aadd9
And there's a demon in my brain
    Dadd9                Aadd9
Who starts to overwhelm, overwhelm,
          Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9 Aadd9
overwhelm,
Dadd9
Aadd9    Dadd9        Aadd9
     And there it goes
        Dadd9           Aadd9
My last chance for peace
    Dadd9       Aadd9
You lay  me down
    Dadd9
But I    get no release

[Chorus]
Aadd9        A      Eadd9          F#m7
And  I say I, I try to   keep awake
A      Eadd9            F#m7
 I try to   swim beneath
A      Eadd9
 I try to   keep awake
F#m7   B7                              D
But I, I can feel this narcolepsy slide
Into another nightmare

[Interlude]
Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9 Aadd9
Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9

[Verse 2]
Aadd9              Dadd9                       Aadd9
     And there's a demon in my head who starts to   play
       Dadd9                             Aadd9
A nightmare tape loop of what went wrong yesterday
      Dadd9                         Aadd9
And I hold my breath till it's more than I can take
      Dadd9
And I close my eyes,
                Aadd9
I dream that I'm     awake

[Chorus]
A      Eadd9      F#m7
 I try to   keep awake
A      Eadd9      F#m7
 I try to   keep awake
A      Eadd9      F#m7
 I try to   keep awake
       B7                              Dadd9
But I, I can feel this narcolepsy slide
Into another nightmare

[Solo]
Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9 Aadd9
Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9

[Verse 3]
       Dadd9
I read dead Russian authors,
           Aadd9
volumes at a    time
        Dadd9                            Aadd9
I write everything down except what's on my   mind
          Dadd9                     Aadd9
'Cause my greatest fear is that sucking  sound
    Dadd9                           Aadd9
And then I know that I'll never get back out
              Dadd9                         Aadd9
And there's a bone in my hand that connects to   a drink
     Dadd9                       Aadd9
In a crowded room where the glasses   clink
         Dadd9                           Aadd9
And I'll buy  you a beer and we'll drink it   deep
        Dadd9                  Aadd9
Because that keeps me from falling  asleep I said

[Bridge]
Dadd9                     Aadd9
How'd you like to be alone     and drowning
Dadd9                     Aadd9
How'd you like to be alone     and drowning
Dadd9                     Aadd9
How'd you like to be alone     and drowning
Dadd9                     Aadd9
How'd you like to be alone     and drowning

[Chorus]
B7                           Dadd9
Still I find this narcolepsy slide,
slide
Into another nightmare

[Outro]
Dadd9 Aadd9 Dadd9      Aadd9
            Keep awake,     keep awake,
Dadd9     Aadd9
keep awake
Dadd9
I    can feel this narcolepsy slide
