Verse: 1 
D#m                           C#                         F# 
Ever since I was young your word is the word that always won 
                            B 
Worry and wake the ones you love 
D#m                         C# 
A phone call I'd rather not receive 
                              F# 
Please use my body while I sleep 
                                   B 
My lungs are fresh and yours to keep 
                                  D#m 
Kept clean and they will let you breathe 

Pre-Chorus: 1 
A#m               C#                     D#m         A#m 
Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry? 
  F#                C#              D#m 
I am the watch you always wear, but you forget to wind 


A#m                 C#           F# 
Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these 
      C#                  G#        F# 
So I sat alone and waited out the night 
         A#m                 C#             F# 
The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed 
         C#                           D#m 
So I'm asking you to shine it on and stick around 
         G# 
I'm not writing my goodbyes 


Verse: 2 
D#m 
I submit no excuse 
 C#                        F# 
If this is what I have to do 
                        B 
I owe you every day I wake 
D#m                         C# 
If I could I would shrink myself 
                                      F# 
And sink through your skin to your blood cells 
                               B 
And remove whatever makes you hurt but 
                          D#m 
I am too weak to be your cure 

Pre-Chorus: 1 
A#m               C#                     D#m         A#m 
Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry? 
  F#                C#              D#m 
I am the watch you always wear, but you forget to wind 

 
A#m                 C#           F# 
Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these 
      C#                  G#        F# 
So I sat alone and waited out the night 
         A#m                 C#             F#

         C#                           D#m

         G#

Bridge 
        C#       A#m      B 
I'm not letting you check out 
         D#                 C# 
You will beat this, starting now 
               G#           B 
And you will always be around 
D#m    C#     A#m          B 
I'm there to monitor your breathing 
        D#m                    C# 
I will watch you while you're sleeping 
        G#               D#m 
I will keep you safe and sound 

Pre-Chorus: 2 
A#m            C#                F# 
Does anybody remember back when you were very young? 
         A#m            G#                 D#m 
Did you ever think that you would be this blessed? 

 
A#m                 C#           F# 
Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these 
      C#                  G#        F# 
So I sat alone and waited out the night 
         A#m                 C#             F#

         C#                           D#m

         G#           A#m 
I'm not writing my goodbyes
