B minorBm   A augmentedA         E minorEm      G+G       B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
You with the dark curls, you with the watercolored eyes
B minorBm    A augmentedA       E minorEm    G+G  B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
You who bears all your teeth in every smile
    B minorBm     A augmentedA    E minorEm   G+G       B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
Says I can always hear you sing, I wanna hear you speak to me
    B minorBm     A augmentedA    E minorEm    G+G    B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
While a stranger braids my hair back out on the street
   B minorBm   A augmentedA    E minorEm    G+G     B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
And in your dreams we are shooting at snakes
   B minorBm    A augmentedA     E minorEm   G+G    B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
And while you were asleep, I was surely awake

I was talking out a cigarette

There's nothing left to say
   B minorBm     A augmentedA     E minorEm  G+G
But he should have been there anyway
    B minorBm   A augmentedA    E minorEm    G+G  B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
For I didn't sing a single song, all day

Chorus:
    B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
As my love for you dies
    B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
As my love for you dies
    B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
As my love for you is steadily dying
   B minorBm   A augmentedA   E minorEm   G+G   B minorBm A augmentedA E minorEm G+G
As sharp and serious as a pistol in the eye

Tie my hands and I'm on my knees
    A minorAm       C majorC       G+G G MajorG
As I kneel down, I kneel down in the sea
G+G       E minorEm
To the ocean floor, I will sink
A minorAm         C majorC       G+G G MajorG
Like a steel chest full of weapons
G+G            E minorEm
And all in spite of the tide, you will rise

Like a red, ripe, red, ripe apple
