Intro
D A D G (Repeated several times)

Bm                 D                            A
Oh love is that a vulture don't tell me it's a vulture
                Bm
standing beside you.
           D                        A
And do you see your own face in his eyes?
                         Bm
Do you see him like I do? Oh

D                            A
It used to be that when you said you believed it
                   Bm
I would believe it too
           D                               A
It used to be that when you said you were leaving
                   G
I'd want to follow you
 G
But never where the dogs bark, never where the dogs bark
    A                D A           G
and I remember, praying at the dinner table
    A                         D              G
For you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able.

Bm                                  D
Now I've a dream of you with half a face
                      A
and you take me to a rooftop and skin me
                                Bm
Come on, Abel, are you going to skin me?
                 D                       A
And use it as a mask to keep you in the dark
Bm        D                  A
When the shadow of the moon won't do
Bm            D                 A
'cause on you, the moon is but a pearl
A                                          D                     G
Stolen from your mother's bedside the day you came into the world
G
still now, i can hear the dogs bark, i can hear the dogs bark

A               D      A        G
and i remember, praying at the dinner table
   A                       D               G
for you to come around, maybe pat me on the back when you're able
A                            D     A      G
oh whole cities light up, but nothing can compare to you, baby
    A             D         G
so I stay awake, laying on the dinner table
                    A
waiting for you to hurt me, come on Abel, hurt me, hurt me, hurt me
D                 G
come down to the world

A                                     G
hurt me, come on Abel, cut me, cut me, serve me 'round the table.
      A
and now it's laying on the table
G
waiting for you, on the table
    A                                  D          G
to carve it up and watch the spray go across the river-bed
     A                               D
and sweet aromas fill the halls from all the bodies that came before
    A                   Bm
and that's the body, i swear that's the body
A                 D     A        G
i remember, it was laying on the dinner table
     A                                   D     G
and when you came around, said you'll be doing fine when you're able
   A                         D       A  G
oh whole cities light up but nothing can compare to you, baby
   A                D             G
so I stay waiting, laying on the dinner table.
   A
oh hurt me, hurt me, hurt me
   G
oh cut me, cut me, serve me
