D MajorD     D6D6   D MajorD     D6add11 D MajorD D6D6 D MajorD D MajorD
All of my heroes sit up straight
   Gadd9Gadd9    D MajorD
They stare at the ground
   Gadd9Gadd9 D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D6add11
They radiate
    D MajorD        D6D6       D MajorD     D6add11 D MajorD D6D6 D MajorD D6add11
Me, I’m mumbling in the kitchen for the sun to pay up

Lonely is a ring on a cold coffee cup

Digging for bones

My hands they were strangers lost in the night
    Gadd9Gadd9  D MajorD      Gadd9Gadd9   D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D6add11
They’re waving around in the dusty light
  D MajorD       D6D6       D MajorD   D6add11  D MajorD D6D6 D MajorD D6add11
I’m waiting in the wings while the trees undress
Gadd9Gadd9   Asus4Asus4      D6add11   D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD
Cupping my ear to hear the wind confess

Chorus:
   D6add11   D MajorD   D6add11 D MajorD
I’m a ghost in the garden
Gadd9Gadd9    Bm7add11
Scaring the crows
   Asus4Asus4              Gadd9Gadd9 D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D MajorD
If it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone

Bridge:

I’m running from nothing, no thoughts in my mind
   Bm7add11
Oh my heart was all black
   Gadd9Gadd9     D MajorD
But I saw something shine
    Asus4Asus4            Gadd9Gadd9     D MajorD
Thought that part was yours, but it might just be mine
    Bm7add11         Gadd9Gadd9    D MajorD
I could share it with you, if you gave me the time

Chorus:
  D6add11  D MajorD    D6add11 D MajorD
I’m all bloody knuckles
Gadd9Gadd9    Bm7add11
Longing for home
   Asus4Asus4              Gadd9Gadd9  D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D6add11 D MajorD D MajorD
If it weren’t for second chances, we’d all be alone

I’m a black sinkhole
