Intro:
Gm , G# (x2) 

verse 1 

Gm 
Have you ever wondered, well I have. 
               G# 
About how when I say, say red, for example. 
                  Gm 
There's no way of knowing if red 
Gm 
Means the same thing in your head 
   G# 
As red means in my head. When someone says red 

Verse 2 

  Gm                                          G#           
It's as if we are traveling at, almost the speed of light 
G# 
And we're holding a light 
                      Gm 
That light will still travel away from us 
                      G# 
At the full speed of light, which seems right in a way 
                    Cm 
What I'm trying to say, I'm not sure 
                          C 
But I wonder if inside my head 
                                             C# 
I'm not just a bit different from some of my friends 

Eb                    
These answers that come into my mind unbidden 
C#                                   C 
These stories delivered to me fully written! 
         C#                                      C 
And when everyone shouts like they seem to like shouting 
                             C# 
The noise in my head is incredibly loud! 
                                           C 
And I just wish they'd stop, my Dad and my Mum. 
                                               C# 
And the telly and stories would stop just for once! 
                                            Fm 
And I'm sorry, I'm not quite explaining it right. 
         Cm                                    C# 
But this noise becomes anger and the anger is light 
                                         Fm 
And its burning inside me would usually fade. 
             C# 
But it isn't today! 
                     Fm 
And the heat and the shouting. 
        C# 
And my heart is pounding. 
        Fm 
And my eyes are burning 
     Eb                                Eb 
And suddenly everything, everything is...

Fsus2 F 
Quiet 
     C             Bb 
Like silence, but not really silent. 
Bb 
Just that still sort of quiet. 
         Bb          F         C           Bb 
Like the sound of a page being turned in a book. 
      Dm       C            Bb 
Or a pause in a walk in the woods. 

F      C 
Quiet 
     Bb 
Like silence, but not really silent. 
          F    C        Bb 
Just that nice kind of quiet. 
         Bb             F          C            Bb 
Like the sound when you lie upside down in your bed. 
         F             C             Bb 
Just the sound of your heart in your head. 

Pre-Chorus 
               Bb 
And though the people around me. 
      Bbm 
Their mouths are still moving. 
     F              Gm7 
The words they are forming, 
                C 
Cannot reach me anymore!

          F 
And it is quiet. 
         C 
And I am warm. 
          Bb 
Like I've sailed. 
                     F   C   Bb 
Into the eye of the storm.
