[Intro]
C Am G (x4)
 
[Verse]
      C             Am G
I've woken up, it's 4 AM
       C           Am      G
and I'm unable to breathe again
   C                Am    G
my lungs have given up on me
       C         Am    G
and my throat is collapsing
 
F
I will cough the night away
Am                 G
I will cough all through the day
F
I won't stop, despite the medicine
Am      G
until 3AM the next morning
 
[Instrumental]
C Am G (x4)
 
    C                 Am      G
And I know you're not asleep yet
     C                   Am G
for God's sake, it's only 4AM
                 C                      Am      G
You're probably thinking about what you want to be
       C            Am        G
despite not knowing what that means
 
            F
And you will think the night away
            Am            G
And you will think all through the day
         F
You won't sleep, despite the medicine
      Am  G
until 3AM the next morning
 
C         G
  She's a social smoker
Am              F
  I'm an asthma patient
C              G                 Am
  She's experimenting with not breathing
            F
and I want out
 
C              G
 She wants to live her life
    Am            F
but doesn't know how
     C          G
well neither do I
            Am              F
but I'm dealing with right now
 
C Am G (x4)
 
     C            Am   G
She wants to move far away
        C                Am      G
but is worried she'll be out of place
              C
and there's a look on her face
              Am          G         C     Am G
that says her heart's beginning to race
 
               C           Am       G
She says, "The way it is, makes me angry
           C             Am         G
and I don't want you to think of me badly"
    C             Am       G
but I swallow my pride and I say
     C              Am        G
"You gotta do what makes you happy"
 
F
I will cough the night away
Am                 G
