Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)
Key: D
Difficulty: Novice
Intro:
D G (x2)
Verse:
D
The orderlies shuffle
G
across black and white marble
D
They're bustling reminders that
G
no one can slow down the days
D
The white coats and black boards
G
they conspire behind locked doors
D
They don't want to tell you how long
G
until it eats me away
D
I wish you would wake me
G
when I'm violently shaking
D
Tossing and turning through dreams
G
where I die giving up
D
I wish it had been you
G
that I'd given my heart to
D
Instead of just wasting these moments
G
by biting my tongue
Chorus:
Bm A
And I've been having dreams
G D
of black and white infirmaries
Bm
With the palest walls
A G
that always stand in silence
Bm A
If I thought that you could hear
G D
I'd whisper in your ear
Bm
All the things I couldn't
A G
come around to writing
Interlude:
D G (x2)
Verse:
D
I've been constantly stepping
G
with these unwanted weapons
D
Like the things that I think
G
and I feel will destroy everything
D
So I'll hold a flame to
G
the things I won't tell you
D
And sift through the ashes
G
for some kind of reason to sing
Chorus:
Bm A
And I've been having dreams
G D
of black and white infirmaries
Bm
With the palest walls
A G
that always stand in silence
Bm A
If I thought that you could hear
G D
I'd whisper in your ear
Bm
All the things I couldn't
A G
come around to writing
Interlude:
D A G (x2)
Outro:
D
And I'll bleed right out
A G
of these wounds that I gave myself
D
And I'll live out
A G
live out this life with nobody's help
D
And I'll bleed right out
A G
of these wounds that I gave myself
D
And I'll live out
A G
live out this life with nobody's help Last updated:
