Met a new me at 8am, the other one got lost.

[Dm]
I woke up crying [A] as [F#m] we said goodbye.
[B] Me and my old self, each day he vanished [E] more and more as I became someone else.
[A]
He actually was murdered, I'd taken him apart.
[Em]
But when [A] I put him back [Em] together, [D] I couldn't find his heart.
[Dm] It was resting underneath the chair, [A] in a bed [F#m] of bright tin foil.
[B] If I'd pulled back the flaps I could still see [E] it beat.
I could still hear his [E] voice, uncall as [A] I said, I want to trade in.

and I'm going [E] to make her my wife.
[A]
Take me over [A] to the window.
My heart's into my head.
[Em]
[D] Please set me on fire so we can start again.
[Dm] I was so wrong that it's funny, [A] [F#m] and I can't apologize.
[Bm]
But instead, you could be everything [E] that I'm not the second that I [A] die.
Oh, I want to trade in.
