 D
Call and I'll answer at home in the lost and found
You say that I'm much too proud
                       C           F       A
Someone who's taking pleasure in breaking down

 D                           G                    D
Never mind the mannequins, drunk in their hollow town
  G                    D
Drinking their spoils down
  G
Cheap imitations
     F             A
The revelation is now

Chorus:
     D          G            A# A
You won't find me I'm going MIA
   D         G            A# A
Tonight I'm leaving going MIA
         D       G            A#          A     G
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb

Counting every minute till
the feeling comes crashing down
Run when it hits the ground
I'm good at escaping
But better at flaking out

Calling unanswered the center becomes blown out
Stuck in the inside now
It's fear I'm embracing
I never could face you down

Chorus

Red, red, laced around your head
Cold and rescued, cold and rescued
Cold and rescued, cold and rescued
Cold and rescued, cold and rescued now

Call and I'll answer at home in the lost and found
You say that I'm much too proud
Someone who's taking pleasure in breaking down

     D          G           A# A
You won't find me I'm going MIA
   D         G            A# A
Tonight I'm leaving going MIA
     D          G            A# A
You won't find me I'm going MIA
   D          G           A# A
Tonight I'm leaving going MIA
     D          G           A# A
Say goodbye​ to me I'm going MIA
        D     G             A# A
I can find relief I'm going MIA
         D       G            A#          A     G
Getting lost in you again is better than being numb
 A#          A    G
Better than being numb
 A#           A      G
Better than playing dumb
