Verse 1
[A]I stare at the headlights 'til I get my head right
[ F#m]And the dogs stop their howls on the porch
My head is an ocean and I'm getting homesick
[E]For a place I've never known
[A]And I just keep laughing when I'm stuck in traffic
[ E]At the metaphor I[F#m]I've become
Refrain
[ ]Maybe I[F#m]I'm restless, a manic, depressive
Or ma[A]maybe I need someone
Or maybe not
Chorus
So pl[A]please just give me something for the [D]pain
[ F#m]'Cause my heart softens to your name
[ ]And when you're [D]gone I come undone
[ ]And when you'[A]you're gone how come I'm weak
[ ]And I w[D]walk wires and I pull teeth
And I'm so tired of chasing [F#m]dreams
[ ]I nee[D]need someone to wake me up
I need someone to wake me up
[A]Oooh, ooo[F#maj]oooh, oooh, [A]oooh [E] [F#m]
Verse 2
[A]I remember the evening you showed me Cat Stevens
[ ]Now I fill the ro[F#m]room up with "Father and Son"
Two minutes emotion, for I was [D]frozen
By the fear and the boredom[A]boredom
Now I've run out of reasons to pick up your pieces
I just[F#m]just tried to recall what once was
Refrain
Maybe I'm [F#m]desperate, a manic, depressive
[A]Or maybe I need someone
Or maybe not
Chorus
So pl[A]please just give me[ ]me something [D]for the pain
[ ]'Cause my[F#m]my heart softens to your name
[ ]And when y[D]you're gone I come undone
[ A]And when you're gone how come I'm weak

And I'm so tired of chasing dreams [F#m]
[ ]I need someone[D]someone to wake me up
I need someone to wake me up
[A]Oooh[Bm]Oooh, [F#m]oooh, [D] [A]oooh[Bm]oooh, [F#m] oooh [D]
