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