Intro
[Dm] [G] [C] [Am] [Am]
Verse 1
[Dm] [G]
I woke up in a town I almost knew
[C] [Am]
Streetlights blinking like they had something to prove
[Dm] [G]
Your number still sits in my phone like a dare
[C] [Am]
Sometimes I dial it just to hear it’s not there
[Dm] [G]
The coffee’s gone cold and the morning feels thin
[C] [Am]
The plans I made last night fell through again
[F] [G]
I’m standing in the doorway with my hat in my hand
[C] [Am] [Am]
Wondering how I got so far from where I had planned
Chorus
[F] [G]
Just another night of confusions
[C] [Am]
Chasing shadows, I’ll call illusions
[Dm] [G]
Then comes the sweet taste of delusions
[F] [G] [Am] [Am]
Telling me I’m closer ….till I lose where I am
Verse 2
[Dm] [G]
I told myself the road would make it clear
[C] [Am]
Miles would wash the noise from my ears
[Dm] [G]
But every exit looks like the one before
[C] [Am]
And every song on the radio opens a new door
[Dm] [G]
I keep rewriting endings in my head
[C] [Am]
Pretending the things I said were left unsaid
[F] [G]
The mirror’s getting honest and I’m looking away
[C] [Am] [Am]
’Cause the truth don’t care how long I wanted to stay
Chorus
[F] [G]
Just another night of confusions
[C] [Am]
Chasing shadows, I’ll call illusions
[Dm] [G]
Then comes the sweet taste of delusions
[F] [G] [Am] [Am]
Telling me I’m closer ….till I lose where I am
Bridge
[F] [G]
Maybe I’m just tired of the fight
[C] [Am]
Maybe I’m just tired of not being right
Chorus
[Dm] [G]
Just another night of confusions
[C] [Am]
Chasing shadows, I’ll call illusions
[Dm] [G]
Then comes the sweet taste of delusions
[F] [G] [Em] [Em]
Telling me I’m closer ….till I lose where I am
[F] [G] NC [Am]
Yeah………. closer ….till I lose where I am
