Intro:] C - F7M
Verse:]
C                       F7M
I dreamt you seduced me just to walk away
C                           F7M
I dreamt you inspired then rewired what I say     
C                                         F7M
I dreamt you spread your bottom wings and pulled me to the bed    
            C                            F7M
But then I woke up feeling nauseous, you danced around my head    
Chorus:]
    F   G Am
Tell me
                        G        F    G Am
How long, how long have I been down?
                        G        F    G Am
How long, how long have I been down?
                               G    (Gadd4)  G
How long, how long have I been down, down, down?
Verse:]
C                                     F7M
I dreamt you burned my fingers yes an automatic sting
C                                      F7M
I dreamt you called me beautiful then asked to hear me sing
C                                F7M
I dreamt you sat, invited me to crawl within your space  
           C                                   F7M
But then I woke up feeling nauseous, girl you danced around my face   
Chorus:]
    F   G Am
Tell me
                        G        F    G Am
How long, how long have you been down?
                        G        F    G Am
How long, how long have you been down?
                                 G    (Gadd4)  G
How long, how long have you been down, down, down?
Bridge:]
F            G                      Am
Why can't we work when we both try? We try, we try, we try, we try.
F            G                      Am
Why can't this work, when we both try? 
F            G                      Am
Why can't it work when we both try? We try, we try, we try
         F    G               
How we try...      
         F    G   F
And how we try...
Interlude:] C  -  F7M  (x3) 
Verse:]
C                      F7M
I meant to sympathize I meant to be a friend
C                  F7M  
I know apologizing won't erase the end
C                              F7M            
But I learn that moving on, is where I must begin
                 C
Because when our colors mixed
                    F7M
We couldn't fix the way they wouldn't blend
Chorus:]
    F   G Am
So Tell me
                         G        F    G Am
How long, how long have we been down?
                         G        F    G Am
How long, how long have we been down?
                                 G   (Gadd4)   G
How long, how long have we been down, down, down?
Bridge:]
