Em G Walk across the garden in B B7 the footsteps of my shadow Em G B B7 See the lights out no one's home Em G In amongst the statues stare B B7 at nothing in the garden moves Em G B B7 Can you help me? Chorus: Am C B Close my eyes and hold so tightly scared of what the morning brings Am C B Waiting for tomorrow never comes Am C B Deep inside the empty feeling all the night time leaves me G F# F B Three imaginary boys Slipping through the door hear my heart beats in the hallway Echoes round and round inside my head Drifting up the stairs I see the steps behind me disappearing Can you help me? Chorus: Am C B Close my eyes and hold so tightly scared of what the morning brings Am C B Waiting for tomorrow never comes Am C B Deep inside the empty feeling all the night time leaves me G F# F B Em Three imaginary boys sing in my sleep sweet child the moon will change your mind See the cracked reflection standing still before the bedroom mirror Over my shoulder but no one's there Whispers in the silence pressing close behind me pressing close behind Em G B B7 Can you help me?
