[Intro]
Em G D x2

[Verse 1]
Em               G
 I was born in a ghost town
C                 G
 Chains rattling, suffocating
Em               G
 I was born in a ghost town where they don’t
C          G
 Raise the dead

[Verse 2]
Em                 G
 Somewhere in Minnesota
C                G
 Snow covered in grey, light breaking
Em                     G
 In the streets of the city where they don’t
C          G
 Raise the dead

[Riff 1]

[Chorus]
Em       C                     G
 So take all that’s left of my love
            D
And give my body to the river
Em    C                     G
 Take all that’s left of my love
            D
And take my body to the river

Em G D x2

[Verse 3]
Em                    G
 Give me something to lean on
C                     G
 Give me something to hold my head up
Em                 G
 Get me out of the cycle
                    C     G
That’s dirtied down in disgust

[Riff 1]

[Verse 4]
Em                    G
 But maybe I’m just a patsy
C                     G
 Maybe the whole damn thing’s a set up
Em                              G
 ‘Cause if there's not starting over
         C     G
All we already dust?

[Riff 1]

[Chorus]
Em       C                     G
 So take all that’s left of my love
            D
And give my body to the river
Em    C                     G
 Take all that’s left of my love
            D
And take my body to the river

[Bridge]
G
 Watching over me
Em
 Watching over me
Am
 I’m going under and it’s
C
 Taking hold of me

[Instrumental]
Em  G
Oh ohhh
C      D
Ooh oh oh

Em  G
Oh ohhh
C      D
Ooh oh oh

[Verse 5]
Em             G
 It was only a glimmer
C                G
 Flashing over a black horizon
Em             G
 It was only a glimmer
             C         G
But it could raise the dead

[Chorus]
Em       C                     G
 So take all that’s left of my love
             D
(And give my body to the river)
Em   C                     G
 Take all that’s left of my love
             D
(And take my body to the river)

[Chorus]
Em      C                     G
So take all that’s left of my love
             D
(And give my body to the river)
Em   C                     G
Take all that’s left of my love
            D              G
