This isn't the exact same key as the song, but neither are any others I've seen for
that aren't extremely difficult. I think it's like a half step down, but it's more

The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had

I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take

When people run in circles it’s a very very
