Verse 1:
G
Hello reaper, have we met?
Em                             G
Still so many things I haven't said

Hello darkness, youâ??re here again
C                     D             G
Last I saw you, I was tangled in my head

Hello sadness, are you here to stay?
           Am                  D        G
Right when things were finally going my way
G

I met this angel
G
She taught me to fly
          Am                D             G
Yeah, she showed me all the colors of the sky


Pre-Chorus:
                C
So please don't take her away
           Em
But if you do
    C                                      D
I'm just skin and bones, I know that there'??s room


Chorus:
         Em     D
When the man in black
         C        G
Comes to cash his check
           Em                 C     G
And you're holding on to your final breath
         Em           G
When you walk out the door
                 Em
Know that I will too
  C               D           G
I hope they build coffins for two


Verse 2:
G
When I was younger, I used to pray
        C                      D
That my life was more than the sum of my mistakes
G
And now you're here, dressed in white
           C                 D                G
I guess he heard my voice on all those lonely nights
G
Now we're older
                   Em
But you look brand new
      Am              D                 G
Every day I'm falling more in love with you
G
When you're tired and your eyes close
          C                 D            G
You won't have to take your final walk a-lone


Pre-Chorus:
          Am              Em
So if for-ever leaves too soon
     C                                   D
Only skin and bones, I know that there's room


Chorus:
         Em     D
When the man in black
         C        G
Comes to cash his check
           Em      D          C     G
And you're holding on to your final breath
         Em           G
When you walk out the door
                 Em
Know that I will too
  C               D           Em  D   G
I hope they build coffins for two-o-o-o


Bridge:
                  Em  D   C
I'??m never leaving you-u-u-u
            Em  D   G
Coffins for two-o-o-o
                  Em  D   C  G
I'm never leaving you-u-u-u

I hope they build coffins for two
  Am*
