Verse 1:

E              C#m      Dbm7
Headstones and landmines
E           C#m       Dbm7
Flowers and red wines

They buy you nice things
A

And they sing pretty songs
       E
But it doesn't help

E             C#m       Dbm7
Oak trees and dirt piles
E            C#m       Dbm7
Funerals and mistrials
A
They say pretty words
A
And they hug from six feet
       E
But it doesn't help
    G#m    A         E
And nothing works but time
   G#m    A              Bbdim
And it all hurts but it's fine

E         C#m   Dbm7
Chaos and carpet
E          C#m    Dbm7
A study in scarlet
A
The room doesn't talk
A                           E
And the furniture nods as I pass


Verse 4:

E                 C#m   Dbm7
Heights marked in pencil
E        C#m    Dbm7
Kitchen utensils
A
The books don't say sorry
     Dbm7
They don't crowd and touch
C#m          E           Bbdim
They're just observers collecting their dust
C#m            E            A
They know that nothing they say is enough
        Bbdim
So they don't say a thing

A    G#m  C#m  E     G#m
Mmm  mmm  mmm  mhmm  hmm
A    G#m  C#m  E    G#m    E
Mmm  mmm  mmm  mmm  hmm
