Created with Chrods! Plug-in. It is not 100% accurate but it the best I could get.
intro:
e b a C b a C D G
In a nig[G]htmare, I am fal[b]ling from the ce[C]iling into b[G]ed beside you.
e a C D
You're asleep, I'm screaming, shoving you to try to wake you up.
[G]And like before, you've got no i[b]nterest in the l[C]ife you live when [G]you're awake.
e a C e
Your dreams still follows storylines, like fictions you would make.
So I lie d[G]own against your b[b]ack, until we're b[C]oth back in the ho[G]spital.
e a **C** e
But now it's not a cancer ward, we're sleeping in the morgue.
[G]Men and women in [b]blue and white, they are s[C]inging all ar[G]ound you,
e a C e
with heavy shovels holding earth. You're being buried to the neck.
In that [G]hospital bed,[b] being buri[C]ed quite alive n[b]ow.

e a C e
I'm trying to dig you out but all you want is to be buried there together.
a e
You're screaming and cursing,
e G
and angry, and hurting me,
and t[a]hen smiling, and cr[G]ying, ap[b]ologizin[D]g.
[G]I've woken up, I'm in our b[b]ed, but t[C]here's no breathing body the[G]re beside me.
e a C D
Someone must have taken you while I was stuck asleep.
But I know b[G]etter as my eyes adj[b]ust.
You've been[C] gone for quite awhil[G]e now,
e a C D
and don't work there in the hospital (they had to let me go.)
When I t[G]ry to move my ar[b]ms sometimes, they we[C]igh too much to lif[b]t.
e a C D
I think you buried me awake (my one and only parting gift.)
But you [G]return to me at [b]night, just when [C]I think I may have f[b]allen asleep.
e a C D
Your face is up against mine, and I'm too terrified to speak.
[a]You're screaming and cur[G]sing,
and [a]angry, and h[G]urting me,
and then s[a]miling, and cr[G]ying, ap[D]ologizing.
