fig.1a+b

D5*        A5*       C5* G5*
and in the susequent solitude
D5*         A5*         C5*      G5
flat on our backs again we think shoot
D5              A5                C5        G5
you don't wanna walk me down this avenue in hell
D5               A5              C5       G5
scared that i'll bicker with the devil herself

fig.1a+b

D5*    A5*         C5*      G5*
my atittude's fundamentally off
D5*       A5*        C5*        G5
i left my heart on a frozen sidewalk
D5      A5                C5           G5
kicked around and sliding on the dirty ice
D5              A5             C5      G5
half a shell of former selves, bury me twice

     D5*            A5*           C5*           G5*
this place makes me feel like i'm dead haunting it
D5*            A5*        C5*     G5
comes when you steal a persephone pit
D5                 A5           C5             G5
swallowed with the oxygene that bruised up our bones
D5                 A5       C5          G5
swallowed with the pathetic cry take me home
