The strum pattern should be fairly obvious

Intro: Am, F, C (don’t hit the e and b strings) x4


Am		    A/F           A/G
   And in the dark it comes for me
Am          A/F           A/G
   Malevolent and without thought
Am                 A/F         A/G
   Uprooting trees, destroying cars
Am                 A/F           A/G
   Cold and relentless, with arms outstretched

Am              A/F    A/G
   No boat nor brick
Am          A/F             A/G
   Nor crucifix can hold it back
          Am      A/F  A/G
I’ve been wicked
          Am      A/F  A/G
I’ve been arrogant

(Change strum pattern)

    Am                                F    C       Cmaj9
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss (Silent about it)
    Am                                F    C       Cmaj9
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
      Am                        F                 C   Cmaj9
And I cannot say that I was not warned or was misled
    Am                                F    C       Cmaj9
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss

(Same chords as previously)

Awaken from dreams of drunken car crashes
You saddened my friends and claimed all my lovers
I tried to stay still, so it will not see
Its talons rake the side of my face

When did you become such a slut?

And when it comes it will feel like a kiss (Silent about it)
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
And I cannot say that I was not warned or was misled
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss

And I didn’t think I’d catch fire when I held my hand to the flame
And I didn’t think it would catch up as fast as I could have run
Fate came a knocking when I was looking the other way

A new disease came in the post for me today

A5, F5, G5  (strum fast) x2


    A5                                F5    C5  G5
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
    A5                                F5    C5  G5
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
    A5
And when it comes
And when it comes
And when it comes
    F5       C5
And when it comes
    A5
And when it comes
And when it comes
                 F5       C5          Am
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss

Enjoy!!
