[Em] [E] [Em] I [E] can't see them with my eyes, [E] I can't touch them with my hand,
But I feel them in a rainstorm or the [G] desert's [Ab] burning sand,
[Am] Cause they [A] always seem to find me when I'm unaware,
[E]
[E] Sneaking up behind me when I'm in [E] my easy chair,
[B] Bad news, [A] bad news, I say [G] hello [E] to the blue,

[E] [Em] I [E] can't hear them with [G] my ears, [E] I can't drown them with my tears,
When I feel the air grow colder, [G] Oh [Em] they're looking [E] over my shoulder,
Cause they [A] always seem to find me when I'm unaware,
[G] [E]
Sneaking up [B] behind me [E] when I'm in my easy chair,

[A]
Nevermore will find me when I'm unaware, [Em]
