Intro: Dm F A X2 Verse 1: Dm It's time to lay your head my dear F It's time to go to sleep A Your minds been racin' round these problems
That are now dried concrete Dm I'll put your favorite record on F I'll put it on repeat A You'll dream of translucent worries And know everything will be okay Dm Think back, thinnk back to the days F We were so young, so warm, so safe A Swaddled up in some dirty blanket Bleedin' on the beach Dm Now the blood stains F Are all that remain to remind us A There once was a force that did bind us And if it wasn't for the lingering odor Of the corpse we'd drift apart Chorus: Bb F So set it all to flame Dm And let the ashes burn A Beneath my calloused feet Bb This flesh and bone F Have become my only company A A constant hold on the trigger To sustain some sanity Verse 2: Dm F A X2 Dm Run run run run faster baby F Faster now be sure to leave me A Waging battles in my head Of demons, misery, regret Dm Herded by a broken compass F Stumbling round with selfish purpose A This love affair with grim Has only lead me further from death Dm I fucking hate those days F When I can feel so clearly That the tethers fraying A And my only comfort is threatening To tear me limb from limb Dm But when the cackle of regret so shrill F Keeps growing louder still A I'm trading in the little blue pills For a needle and an empty bed Chorus: Bb F So set it all to flame Dm And let the ashes burn A Beneath my calloused feet Bb This flesh and bone F Have become my only company A A constant hold on the trigger To sustain some sanity Bridge: Dm F C A X2 (In between note is always an E) Bridge 2: Dm F C# I've been cut and strung like a puppet Dm Bb C# Tell me was it all worth it Dm F C# When you cease to question your captor Dm Stockholm has stolen your sanity Bb C# Dm Can't say goodbye
