[D]Stone cold
You wake me when the [C]phone vibrates
Your voice sounds [Em]dulled, but loud enough to hear you[D]
[D]Distant, echoes of my [C]heart unbreak
Silently [Em]numb, I'm waiting for this storm to[D] come
[D]I'm waiting for this storm to come
[D]Listen to you load that gun
[D]I'm waiting for this storm to come

[C]And with one strike
[Em]My world lights up in a [D]fire

[Em]Mmm, one strike

Your poisoned [Em]tongue
But I don't want to believe [D]you

[D]I'm ready for the storm to come
[D]Listen to you load that gun
[D]I'm ready for the storm come
