The Cure - Open: chords

   Gm            F                   Gm
I really don't know what I'm doing here
   F      Gm        F        Gm     Dm
I really think I should've gone to bed tonight
     Gm        F                       Gm        F
But just one drink and there are some people to meet you
    Gm               F               Gm           Dm
I think that you'll like them, they like to say, greet you

Chorus:
    F                    Dm
I promise you this right now
                 Gm F Gm
We will honestly go
      F                        Dm
Now why don't I just get you another
                      Gm F Gm
While you just say hello
        F         Gm F Gm
Yeah, just say hello
 F          Gm  F Gm
Just say hello.

So I'm clutching it tight
Another glass in my hand
And my mouth and the smiles
Moving up as I stand up
Too close and too wide
And the smiles are too bright
And I breathe in too deep
And my head's getting light

Chorus:
But the air is getting heavier and it's closer
I'm starting to sway
And the hands all on my shoulders don't have names
And won't go away
So here I go
Here I go again

 Dm
Falling into strangers
         A#
And it's only just eleven
     Dm
I'm staring like a child
       A#
Until someone shows me Heaven
 Cm
Take it on my knees
              Gm
Just like a thousand times before
  Cm
I get transfixed
     Gm
That fixed.
                         Gm F Gm
And I just look at the floor
      Dm           Gm F Gm
Just look at the floor
         Dm           Gm  F Gm
Yeah, I look at the floor.

I'm starting to laugh
Like an animal in pain
I've got blood on my hands
I've got hands in my brain
The first shot of retch
Leaves me gasping for more
I stagger over screaming
On my way to the floor

Chorus:
I'm back on my back
With the lights and the lies in my eyes
And the color and the music's too loud
And my head's all the wrong size
So here I go
Here I go again.

Yeah, I laugh and I jump
And I sing and I laugh
And I dance and I laugh
And I laugh and I laugh
And I can't seem to think
Where this is
Who I am
Why I'm keeping this going
Keep pouring it out
Keep pouring it down
Keeping it going
Keep pouring it down
And the way the rain comes down hard
That's the way I feel inside

I can't take it anymore
This it I've become
This is it like I get
When my life's going numb
I just keep moving my mouth
I just keep moving my feet
I say, "I'm loving you to death
Like I'm losing my breath"

And all the smiles that I wear
And all the games that I play
And all the drinks that I mix
And I drink until I'm sick
And all the faces I make
And all the shapes that I throw
And all the people I meet
And all the words that I know
Makes me sick to the heart, oh, I feel so tired

And the rain comes down hard
That's how I feel inside
And the rain comes down hard
That's how I feel inside
