A#m             Fm                      D#
I wanna shut my eyes I could use some sleep
A#m                      Fm              D#
But all my thoughts keep racing restlessly

    F#          G#
And I don't know how this happened
F#          G#
I don't know

Chorus:
                 A#m
And it keeps me awake
             Fm                     D#
Like raging bulls, we keep banging heads
                 A#m
Oh, it keeps me awake
           Fm                    D#
Cut in or dead,  I can't see the end
                 A#m
Oh, it keeps me awake
                     Fm
I don't know how we kept,
                         D#
just try to take a step back
                                              A#m
Oh, I know we're pretty fast and it keeps me awake
             Fm                      D#
Like raging bulls, we keep banging heads

I’m losing patience, communication’s key
How do we solve this if you don't talk to me?

And I don't know how to fix this
I don't know

Chorus

A#m                  G#                   D#
I don't understand, we began as friends, now
we act like enemies
A#m                  G#                    D#
I don't understand why you have to go and turn
it all on me
A#m                  G#                   D#
I don't understand, we began as friends, now we
act like enemies
A#m                  G#                    D#
I don't understand why you have to go and turn
it all on me

                 A#m Fm D#
And it keeps me awake
                 A#m Fm D#
Oh, it keeps me awake

I don't know how we kept, just try to take
a step back
Oh, I know we're pretty fast and it keeps me awake
Like raging bulls, we keep banging heads
Oh, it keeps me awake
