[Verse 1]
C                F     C
Everything leads up to this
B7            Em E7
Everything we do
F                C
Just to get back to the couch
    D7                   G
And watch some junk with you


[Verse 2]
C              F  C
If you need an alibi
B7               Em E7
You can count on me
F                   C
I will say you were by my side
     D7                 G
Just like you’ll always be


[Chorus]
    Am
The timeline’s slowing
    Am/G
The window’s glowing
   D7/F#               Fm
We swept us off of our feet
        C          G          Am  Am/F#
There’s nowhere to go but to sleep
        C          G         C
There’s nowhere to go but to sleep


[Verse 1]
C                F     C
You can not come home again
B7           Em E7
If you never leave
F               C
Don't forget to now and then
   D7               G
To doubt what you believe


[Chorus]
    Am
The timeline’s slowing
    Am/G
The window’s glowing
   D7/F#               Fm
We swept us off of our feet
        C          G          Am  Am/F#
There’s nowhere to go but to sleep
        C          G
There’s nowhere to go but to 



[Bridge]
Ab              Bb               Gm             Cm
Sleep until the morning and then sleep a little longer
Ab           Bb              Eb
Where do you go when you’re awake?
Ab            Bb               Gm             Cm
We'll keep on floating but the current’s getting stronger
Ab        G7                  C
Why do we leave when we could stay?


[Instrumental Verse]
C F C B7 Em E7 
F C D7 G


[Chorus]
    Am
The timeline’s slowing
    Am/G
The window’s glowing
   D7/F#               Fm
We swept us off of our feet
        C          G          Am  Am/F#
There’s nowhere to go but to sleep
        C          G          Am  Am/F#
There’s nowhere to go but to sleep
        C          G         Ab  Gm C
There’s nowhere to go but to sleep
