Halsey - Control

[intro] x4
Em  Cdim7

[verse]
Em
They send me away to find them a fortune
Em
a chest filled with diamonds and gold
C
The house was awake with shadows and monsters
C
The hallways, they echoed and groaned

Em
I sat alone, in bed till the morning
Em
I'm crying "they're coming for me"
C
And I tried to hold these secrets inside me
C
My mind's like a deadly disease

[pre-chorus]
                   Em  Em/D#
I'm bigger than my body
                     C
I'm colder than this home
                   Em
I'm meaner than my demons
                      B7
I'm bigger than these bones

[chorus]
Em
And all the kids cry out
                    B7
"please stop you're scaring me"
Em                      B7
I can't help this awful energy
Em                           B7
God damn right you should be scared of me
C            B7
Who is in control?

[verse]
Em
I paced around, for hours on empty
Em
I jumped at the slightest of sounds
C
And I couldn't stand, the person inside me
C
I turned all the mirrors around

[pre-chorus]
                   Em
I'm bigger than my body
Em/D#                     C
I'm colder than this home
                   Em
I'm meaner than my demons
                      B7
I'm bigger than these bones

[chorus]
Em
And all the kids cried out
                  B7
"please stop you're scaring me"
Em                      B7
I can't help this awful energy
Em                           B7
God damn right you should be scared of me
C         B7
Who is in control?

[bridge]
Em
 I'm well acquainted
         Cdim7                 Em   Cdim7
with villains that live in my bed
Em
They beg to write them
   Cdim7            Em       Cdim7
so they'll never die when I'm dead
Em
And I've grown familiar
     Cdim7          Em     Cdim7
with villains that live in my head
Em
They beg to write them
   Cdim7                Em     Cdim7
so I'll never die when I'm dead

[pre-chorus]
                   Em
I'm bigger than my body
                     C
I'm colder than this home
                   Em
I'm meaner than my demons
                      B7
I'm bigger than these bones
