When you see Em*, you can play Em open if you want, but I find that it sounds
better with the bar chord.

Intro: D
       D


       D
Take a look at my body
Em
Look at my hands
Am
There's so much here that I
D
Don't understand
     D
Your face saving promises
Em
Whispered like prayers
        Em
I don't need them
        D
I don't need them

          Em
I've been treated so wrong
          C
I've been treated so long
   D
As if I'm becoming untouchable

         D
Well, contempt loves the silence
   Em
It thrives in the dark
     Am
With fine winding tendrils that
D
Strangle the heart
D
They say that promises
Em
Sweeten the blow
            Em
But I don't need them
            D
No, I don't need them

          Em
I've been treated so wrong
          C
I've been treated so long
   D
As if I'm becoming untouchable
      Em
I'm a slow dying flower
     C
In a frost killing hour
    G
The sweet turning sour
    D
And untouchable

D
D

              Em
O, I need the darkness, the sweetness
    G
The sadness, the weakness
      D
Oh, I need this
         Em
I need a lullaby, a kiss goodnight
G
Angel sweet love of my life
     D
Oh, I need this

      Em
I'm a slow dying flower
     C
In a frost killing hour
    G
The sweet turning sour
    D
And untouchable

       D
Do you remember the way
         Em
That you touched me before?
        Am
All the trembling sweetness
  D
I loved and adored
     D
Your face saving promises
Em
Whispered like prayers
        Em
I don't need them
            D
No, I don't need them

              Em
O, I need the darkness, the sweetness
    G
The sadness, the weakness
      D
Oh, I need this
         Em
I need a lullaby, a kiss goodnight
G
The angel sweet love of my life
      D
Oh, I need this
      Em
Is it dark enough? Can you see me?
       G
Do you want me? Can you reach me?
        D
Oh, I'm leaving
           Em
You better shut your mouth, hold your breath
G
Kiss me now and catch your death
      D
Oh, I mean this
