Nightmare

Am G# Tell me 'bout it when you're sober Em7 F Wake me up when your nightmare is over Am G# And all our days are getting colder Em7 F Lay me down, I'll be closer to you Am Even if I try G# Em7 F And God, I've tried so many times Am And I gave you up G# Em7 F Then I got hope in us but not very much Am G# Em7 F My heart's not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?) Am G# Em7 F I doubt that's what I'm supposed to do (but you want me to) Am G# Em7 F And I'm not strong enough to push you away Am G# Em7 F Cause I'm not you Am G# Friday nights are your shelter Em7 F Wake me up when you're numb and your head hurts Am G# But the pain is getting worse Em7 F Pour your heart out, I'm still confusеd Am Even if I try G# Em7 F And God, I've tried so many times Am And I gave you up G# Em7 F Then I got hope in us but not very much Am G# Em7 F My heart's not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?) Am G# Em7 F I doubt that's what I'm supposed to do (but you want me to) Am G# Em7 F And I'm not strong enough to push you away Am G# Em7 F Cause I'm not you Am G# Wake me up when your nightmare is over Em7 F But maybe you're not getting closer Am G# Wake me up when your nightmare is over Em7 F When it's over. Is it ever over? Am G# Em7 F My heart's not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?) Am G# Em7 F I doubt that's what I'm supposed to do (but you want me to) Am G# Em7 F And I'm not strong enough to push you away Am G# Em7 F Cause I'm not you
