to C or Am, so preserve the picking pattern in the verses.)
Verse:
The f[C]loor will have it's w[G]ay it se[F]ems.
It fi[Am]ghts me like a tr[G]ampol[F]ine.
[Am]It won't let me [G]on the [F]ground,
So t[C]his time I'm not [G]coming d[F]own.
No t[C]his time I'm not [G]coming d[F]own.
[C]I've been talking [G]in my s[F]leep.
We once [Am]kissed goodnight, and [G]here we s[F]peak.
You l[Am]oved me just so [G]brutal[F]y,
To have the [C]bitter life [G]wrung out of [F]me.
Chorus:
(note: without pattern, play with chords)
[G5]This time I'm not [F]coming [C]down.
[Am]This time I'm not [G5]coming [F]down.
...trampoline...

Verse:
The w[C]hole platoon is [G]over[F]fed,
And we're [Am]in this thing ov[G]er our h[G]eads.
My [Am]mind has never b[G]een so cl[F]ear,
But I [Am]stutter like an [G]auction[F]eer.
As the [C]night has come a[G]live with g[F]riefs,
The h[Am]ew and hollar, s[G]pit and s[F]cream.
Every [Am]one of them is s[G]ick with[F] lust,
But every [C]one of them will [G]outlive [F]us.
(Chorus, as before)
And [C]if I really th[G]ought I c[F]ould,
I[Am]'d give up your gh[G]ost for g[F]ood,
But I[Am]'m not sure it i[G]sn't yo[F]u...
That k[C]eeps my ghost from l[G]eaving t[F]oo.
But [C]I don't miss you h[G]alf as m[F]uch,
As w[Am]ho you made me th[G]ink I w[F]as.
When I could s[Am]ee myself the w[G]ay you [F]do.
And I could a[C]lmost see mys[G]elf in y[F]ou.
I could a[C]lmost see mys[G]elf in y[F]ou.
Final chorus:
And t[G5]his time I'm not c[F]oming d[C]own.
No t[Am]his time I'm not c[G5]oming d[F]own.
[G5]This time I'm not c[F]oming d[C]own...
...trampoline...
