Slipping Away Switchfoot
Intro:
D G x4
Verse 1:
Re[D]member coming home at [G]four in the morning
[D]Before the sun was [G]up
[D]Back when the east was a [G]fire of gold
Just [D]waiting for the rest of the [G]sky to fall in [D]love
Yea[G]h
Our [D]hope is just a metaphor,[G] of something better
For [D]all of our dreams to[G]night
And [D]fear is just a shadow of[G] the things that matter the [D]most
And I fear that I'm [G]losing hope tonight
Chorus:
[D]Oh oh
I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh oh
Staring up at the ceiling
[G]Oh oh
It's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
[D]Oh oh
You wouldn't believe me
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
[G]Oh oh
The words that I wanted to say
I feel them slipping away
D G x4
Verse 2:
Re[D]member that kid with the quivering lip
Whose heart was on his sleeve like a first aid kit
Where are you now? Where are you now?
Remember that kid, didn't know when to quit
I still lose my breath when I think about it
Oh, where'd you go?
(Oh [G]where'd you go?)
Chorus:
[D]Oh oh
I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh oh
Staring up at the ceiling
[G]Oh oh
It's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
[D]Oh oh
You wouldn't believe me
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
[G]Oh oh
The words that I wanted to say
I feel them slipping away
Bridge:
[Bm] I know this isn't what you [D]wanted
Past words in the present are [G]haunting us now
And on and on and on and on
[Bm] My heartbeat could tell you it's [D]urgent
I try to shout but the [G]words don't come out
Chorus:
[D]Oh oh
I feel like I'm dreaming
Oh oh
Staring up at the ceiling
[G]Oh oh
It's four in the morning
I can't sleep and it feels like a warning
[D]Oh oh
You wouldn't believe me
If I could say it just the way that I'm feeling
[G]Oh oh
The words that I wanted to say
I feel them slipping away
D G x8
