Standard Tuning

Intro B minorBm E MajorE E minorEm B minorBm

Verse 1:

B minorBm               E MajorE
I don?t have to mention that I saw you today
E minorEm             B minorBm
I shone the sun into your eyes
B minorBm                          E MajorE
And you don?t always have to question why there?s pleasure in pain
E minorEm                B minorBm
Cos there?s no truth for you to find


B minorBm                   E MajorE
I?m drawing perfect circles round the life that we could share
E minorEm               B minorBm
And what is ours, is ours to keep
B minorBm                    E MajorE
I know the thing you want the most, you hide it over there
E minorEm               B minorBm
Safe at the dark end of the street

Chorus
B minorBm
When the devil's waiting
A augmentedA              E MajorE
Down by the river calling out
            A augmentedA      G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you
B minorBm             A augmentedA              E MajorE
And when the flood is over and all the love is pouring out
             A augmentedA      G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you
B minorBm
Light up the dark in you
A augmentedA
Light up the dark in you
G+G               E MajorE
Oh, light up the dark in you

Verse 2:
B minorBm                  E MajorE
There?s so little I?m afraid of when it comes to an end
E minorEm               B minorBm
But I can?t leave you on your own
B minorBm                     E MajorE
When the chaos turns to silence and your enemies your friends
E minorEm           B minorBm
I will roll away the storm

Chorus
B minorBm
When the devil's waiting
A augmentedA              E MajorE
Down by the river calling out
             A augmentedA     G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you
B minorBm              A augmentedA              E MajorE
And when the flood is over and all the love is pouring out
             A augmentedA      G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you
B minorBm
Light up the dark in you

Light, light up the dark in you

B minorBm
When the devil's waiting
A augmentedA              E MajorE
Down by the river calling out
            A augmentedA      G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you
B minorBm              A augmentedA              E MajorE
And when the flood is over and all the love is pouring out
             A augmentedA      G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you
B minorBm
And when the devil's waiting
A augmentedA              E MajorE
Down by the river calling out
             A augmentedA      G+G
I wanna be the one to light up the dark in you

2.Skeleton

Standard tuning

(the transition from DmDm to G+G to A minorAm and from A minorAm to G+G in the intro and verses is very fast and played
very briefly, listen to the song to get the timing right but it also sounds okay if you
want to leave out the G+G)

intro: DmDm G+G A minorAm G+G A minorAm

Verse 1:
       DmDm
What did you just say
        G+G     A minorAm
No I heard you right the first time
       G+G     A minorAm
I heard you right the first time
         DmDm
Are you trying to hurt me
         G+G     A minorAm
You know you're supposed to lie
         G+G  A minorAm
When the truth is so unkind


Chorus:
C majorC               FF
It's like I'm looking right through you
     A minorAm
There's nothing on your skeleton

Your heart is gone
            FF
You're acting like it doesn't even matter
   DmDm
Like I don't even matter

  A minorAm
The way it was the rush of blood

You gave it all up
            FF
You're acting like it doesn't even matter
   DmDm
Like I don't even matter

A minorAm FF DmDm

Verse 2:
FF G+G      DmDm
I'm not gonna fight you
     G+G   A minorAm
I don't want to win
         G+G  A minorAm
And live through this again
         DmDm
I'm not going to love you
       G+G    A minorAm
I don't know where to begin
          G+G  A minorAm
I don't know where to begin

Chorus:
C majorC               FF
It's like I'm looking right through you
     A minorAm
There's nothing on your skeleton

Your heart is gone
            FF
You're acting like it doesn't even matter
   DmDm
Like I don't even matter

  A minorAm
The way it was the rush of blood

You gave it all up
            FF
You're acting like it doesn't even matter
   DmDm
Like I don't even matter

A minorAm FF DmDm

FF G+G

DmDm
Where will you go

Who will you be
          FF G+G
Who will you hurt (doesn't even matter)
DmDm
Up in the clouds

You're gonna fall
          FF G+G
Down in the dirt (doesn't even matter)
DmDm
Take what you want

Take it from me
         FF G+G
Give it to her (doesn't even matter)
DmDm
There's nothing of us

Nothing at all
        E minorEm
It's not gonna work

I'm not gonna love you

Chorus: (x2)

     A minorAm
There's nothing on your skeleton

Your heart is gone
            FF
You're acting like it doesn't even matter
   DmDm
Like I don't even matter

  A minorAm
The way it was the rush of blood

You gave it all up
            FF
You're acting like it doesn't even matter
   DmDm          A minorAm
Like I don't even matter

Temporary moments of flight

Visionaries chasing you hide
       C minorCm Eb MajorEb  G minorGm FF

    C minorCm         Eb MajorEb
When everthing's been done before
           G minorGm     FF        Eb MajorEb G minorGm FF
You?re still knocking at my door, begging for more
     C minorCm         Eb MajorEb

Thinking I'll just take them blind

In the house we never built
           A minorAm
The winter is always cold enough
   C majorC    G minorGm
Cold enough to kill
       A minorAm
Just a little jasmine
       C majorC     G minorGm
Just a little salt in my wounds

     C majorC     G minorGm
Now it's 21 years left
       A minorAm
Just a little bad luck
       C majorC     G minorGm
Just a little salt in my wounds

Break it to me gently, gently!

Feel the heat of my face

See it go up in flames

Burn it in to the ground
